Don't Get Dumped by Your Gyno!
From Dr. Randye Karmin: REPLY Once again, women all over Miami are receiving letters from their insurance company that their gynecologist is no longer accepting their plan. A few months ago, it was Humana. This time, it's BlueCross BlueShield. The failure of many doctors to reasonably negotiate contracts with private insurance companies has resulted in thousands of women being left to find a new gynecologist. Dr. Randye Karmin proudly accepts all major carriers including BlueCross, Humana, Aetna, United, Avmed, Cigna, and more.

Pretty Pedi, Please!
From Cecily Wernick: REPLY I am looking for an excellent pedicure. I don't need a spa-style service with lots of pampering, but I want a thorough experience with lots of cleaning, scrubbing, buffing, etc. Do you know of a great manicurist who uses quality polish that lasts a long time? It can be someone in a salon or a person who comes to my home. Thank you!

Remembering Lilly Pulitzer (1931-2013) From Team JAB  What better time to celebrate the life of Lilly Pulitzer than the start of springtime in South Florida? The iconic designer's bright and happy prints became a staple in the closets of Palm Beach socialites in the 1960s. Her former classmate, Jackie Kennedy, helped launch Lilly Pulitzer's style to women and children all over the world after she famously wore one of her dresses. So, as you enjoy the striking colors and exotic blooms that spring brings, remember Lilly Pulitzer, who brought a bit of that magic to our wardrobes!

Is it Child's Play?
I'm sad to say that my 10-year-old child is a bully. He is always making fun of kids in his class and shoves and pushes them for no reason. We have tried disciplining him for this behavior but nothing seems to work. Family and friends tell us that it is typical behavior for a boy this age but I am concerned. I am considering taking him to a therapist to figure out why he thinks it is acceptable and even humorous to treat others unkindly. If you have an opinion or experience with this, I would love to hear from you. Thank you!
