Are You Shopping for a Dentist in Charlotte NC?

Are You Shopping for a Dentist in Charlotte NC?

Dr. Colleen SchmidtW ell your search ends here--Dr. Colleen Schmidt is, in my opinion, the most wonderful dentist in the area!  Her specialty, the care of teeth, gums and mouths, with a keen eye for detail and incredible interpersonal skills.  Dr. Schmidt goes above and beyond in everything that she does--she cares for my entire family and many friends who I have referred to her and we all agree, we've never had a dentist quite like Dr. Schmidt.  

 

She and her wonderful staff educate us all on proper dental care as well as any new 'treatments' or care for our teeth or gums.  

Don't forget your regularl check-up!

 

Dr. Schmidt has seen only one of my boys (ages 19 & 20) with a cavity (and that was this past year--'a college cavity' I called it!) as she and her staff recommend and implement routine cleanings and checkups; they have educated the boys extremely well regarding dental hygiene and keep in touch with them even while they are away at college.  She has made both boys feel completely comfortable in the dentist chair (which is far more than I can say for my childhood dentist)!  



Hubby & I have routine checkups with Dr. Schmidt too, and what amazes me is that each and every time we visit, the staff remains the same!  Friendly and caring--they all remember our names when we come in the door; it just doesn't get any better than that!

 

So, if you're moving to the Charlotte area or are living here already and looking for new dentist, Dr. Colleen Schmidt wins my 5-star stamp of approval as the best dentist in the Routine Check-Ups Recommended!area!  She's conveniently located at the Arboretum (bank and spa quadrant of the complex) at the intersection of Highway 51 and Providence Road.

OH, and if you're like me and you drink way too much Starbucks--Dr. Schmidt does a mean bleaching at a very affordable price!  Call today for your appointment:  704.544.1402.

Charlotte NC Relocation Information: Light Rail Transportation

city view with LYNX

Charlotte NC Relocation Information:  Light Rail Transportation

In keeping with Charlotte's cat theme (Carolina Panthers, Charlotte Bobcats, CATS [Charlotte Area Transit System]), a new light rail, LYNX has become our new favorite means of transportation in the city!  Connectivity is key (hence the name, LYNX) in getting the city's south end into the city during rush hours. 

In November, 2007, the Charlotte Area Transit System (CATS) began operation of the 9.6-mile LYNX Blue Line light rail, after having been under construction since February, 2005.  The LYNX fleet includes sixteen Avanto light rail cars built by Siemens.  The line extends from Uptown Charlotte southward to Pineville and runs almost parallel to I-77.  Previously used by the Charlotte Trolley, a heritage streetcar operation runs in tandem service with the LYNX trains.

This model is patterned by those in Houston, Texas, and has also been ordered by the city of Portland, Oregon.  Charlotteans have enthusiastically embraced the light rail after much ado about county expenditures to build the system.  This was demonstrated by the opening month’s records of carrying over 9,000 passenger trips per day.  CATS projects over 18,000 passenger riders by the year 2025.  Visit Charlotte Center City Partners website for a LYNX interactive map.  


Real estate surrounding the light rail stations has shown a boost in sales prices, contributing, once again, to Charlotte’s smart plans to maintain economic stability.  Rush hour traffic and major sporting events in the Uptown area as well as concerts and other functions at the arena, are contributory to our much needed new light rail as well as its early success. 

The LYNX line has 15 stations, sharing its track with the Charlotte Trolley from the Atherton Mill station to the 7th Street station.  The 9.6 mile opening phase is planned to expand to reach 36th Street by 2013 and I-485 at UNCC by 2018.  With 14 stations planned, the corridor will be 14 miles long by 2018.  Come ride the light rail and check out our beautiful city with me--we'll take a tour of some of our gorgeous homes while you're here!  We know Charlotte real estate.  Let my team do the work for YOU!
