Sea View Pharmacy

DRS. EUGENE and JENNIFER MEDLEY

An often overlooked but important healthcare connection to establish is a personal relationship with your neighborhood pharmacist. Experienced, independent pharmacists are an invaluable resource for parents, seniors, athletes, and anyone else who needs trusted medical information and consultations. Family-owned and operated for 40 years, and now in its second generation, Sea View Pharmacy in San Clemente has served the community through decades of sweeping changes in healthcare and will support the current generation of local families through the next.

Jerry Medley assumed ownership of Sea View in 1988 and can still be spotted behind the counter assisting patients. His son Eugene now owns and, runs the day-to-day operations now, along with Eugene’s wife Jennifer (when she’s not chasing after three busy kids!). Eugene grew up hanging around the pharmacy, but he explored stints as an ocean lifeguard, working in animal husbandry with Siegfried and Roy, and teaching veterinary anatomy before obtaining a doctorate degree in pharmacy and joining his father. As a professional, Medley finds gratification in knowing his business caters to a particular niche in the marketplace. “We can devote more time to customer service than corporate-run stores,” he says, “As a compounding pharmacy, we can provide customized therapies that aren’t available commercially.”

“Pharmaceutical companies formulate medications and determine dosages based on a 180-pound Caucasian male,” Medley explains, “We work with physicians to customize treatments for people who don’t fit into that mold.” Babies with digestive issues, hormone replacement for both women and men, veterinary patients, and people with special dietary requirements—just to name a few—all benefit from a partnership between the doctor and pharmacist to determine the most effective treatment with the most appropriate dosage.

As San Clemente’s only independent pharmacy, Sea View is also the go-to source for all medical equipment and supplies—even hard to find products—from bandages and braces to compression garments and wheelchairs. The website provides a wealth of information as well, including drug profiles, healthy recipes, articles, and referrals. Check out  SeaViewPharmacy.com and take a peek, or better yet, stop by and introduce yourself!

Trestles Chiropractic

STRUCTURAL CORRECTION – THERAPEUTIC LASER

Dr. Anderson has been serving the community of San Clemente for the past five years. His unique approach to Structural Correction has allowed him to guide his patients back to optimal health without the need for invasive measures. Rather than focusing on just the symptoms, Dr. Anderson utilizes specific examination tools that allow him to properly diagnose and treat the underlying cause. This is key to achieving lasting results and truly allowing the body to do its job of healing itself.

More and more people are looking to avoid addictive pain killers. Studies have shown that chiropractic care has a better long-term result for treating low back pain than both prescription and over the counter pain meds.

Trestles Chiropractic is always striving to utilize the most current and up to date technologies. While reviewing the need for additional options for patients with more extensive soft tissue injuries, Dr. Anderson brought a Class IV Aspen Laser into the practice. This has expanded his ability to aide those who are trying to avoid surgery by stimulating a natural process of healing at an accelerated rate.

Dr. Anderson is very happy to announce that he will be moving Trestles Chiropractic to a brand-new facility across from the old hospital. So much work has gone into creating this  state-of-the-art experience for his patients. From new adjusting benches to fully digital X-ray, this will be the ultimate resource in restoring proper function to the spine and nervous system for all who are in need of care.

Dr. Anderson believes in the power of a strong community. He, his wife, and son live in San Clemente. He has volunteered with local youth on Tuesday nights for the last two years. He also has supported the high school football team. You may still have one of the awesome rally towels. Dr. Anderson graduated from the Southern California University of Health Sciences and is a Board Certified Chiropractor.

Trestles Chriopractic anticipates the new facility to be open in November of this year. Call to schedule your appointment today.

Flipped Doughnuts

Doughnuts • Coffee • Chicken

by Dina Scaglione

As you enter Flipped Doughnuts and Coffee, you’re immediately greeted by a sign that reads: “Good Things are Coming.” That’s an understatement of what you’ll encounter when you sit back and enjoy Dana Point’s newest artisan-style eatery and its trendy, laid-back style, befitting its Pacific Coast Highway location at The Row.

As the new kid on the block, Flipped is committed to delivering the freshest and most delicious doughnuts in the world. After one bite, you’ll agree that these artfully crafted and creatively designed delights will have you quickly rethinking your go-to maple glazed old fashioned. Each doughnut is made from a traditional cake-style batter foundation with playful twists and thoughtful ingredients incorporated to create savory treats like the Blueberry with Almond Streusel Cake, Maple Bacon & Cheddar and Crème Brule doughnuts, just to name a few.

My personal favorite is the Brown Butter Cake Doughnut, made with buttermilk and cinnamon, then crowned with a crumbly cream cheese topping – talk about moist, light and melt-in-your-mouth goodness. The newest addition to Flipped’s menu is a Strawberry Butter Crunch Doughnut with pastry cream. Think Strawberry Shortcake with a deliciously creamy filling. Beyond heavenly!

If salty-sweet is your weaknesses, then you must try Flipped’s Waffles & Fried Chicken breakfast sandwiches. Tender strips of made-to-order fried chicken are nestled between two crispy waffles, along with a fried egg, sliced bacon and Japanese mayo. Be sure to add a side of signature seasoned fries, served with an assortment of 7 dipping sauces — including garlic jam, spicy ranch and sweet and spicy.

And, of course, nothing goes better with doughnuts than a satisfying cup of freshly brewed coffee, espresso or cappuccino. Try Flipped’s own signature blend, made from the highest quality Arabica beans, roasted each week to retain its complex flavors and freshness. Shakes, smoothies and a variety of teas are also available.

Need a caterer for your next event? Look no further than Flipped for a menu that serves up something a bit different to your guests. Stop by Tuesday through Sunday from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. or order online at FlippedDoughnuts.com for an ultra-convenient experience.
