Spring is Here 🙂
It may not always feel like it outside, but it’s spring time!  Hopefully, the cold will go away soon and we can all get outside and enjoy this wonderful time of year.
Here’s some news and notes from your friends at Atlas…​​​​​​​

Baby Daniel Elijah Alexandroni is here!!! We’re overjoyed to announce Dr. Alex and Cristina’s son was born bright and early Monday, March 5th at their home. He’s quite stout: 9lbs 5oz and 23 inches long.

We feel so blessed by the Lord to be entrusted with this little life as an addition to our family. Grace and Peter are loving their baby brother (and so are we ). Thanks to all who prayed for us and are showing us love!​​​​​​

“..let all who take refuge in you rejoice; let them ever sing for joy…” from Psalm 5:11

This is our friend Audrey and she is just one of so many new patients in our office.  We are so excited to get to know all of you and want to welcome you to the Atlas family!​​​​​
