  • Smile Care Dental Wins 2026 Consumer Choice Award for Dentists in Waterloo Region

    CAMBRIDGE, ONTARIO / ACCESS Newswire / March 9, 2026 / Smile Care Dental, a dental practice led by husband-and-wife dentists Dr. Adam Szymczak and Dr. Joanne Baldos, has been awarded the 2026 Consumer Choice Award in the Dentists category for the Waterloo Region. Recognized for its patient-centered philosophy, community commitment and dedication to the principle that “less dental work is healthier for you,” Smile Care Dental continues to set the standard for ethical and preventive oral health care.

    Dr. Adam and Dr. Joanne have served Cambridge and surrounding areas since 2001. Their guiding belief is that the best dentists perform the least unnecessary work – if a procedure does not benefit a patient’s long-term health or well-being, it is not done. This preventive philosophy has shaped every aspect of Smile Care Dental’s approach, from comprehensive checkups to restorative and cosmetic treatments.

    Patient-First Philosophy in Practice

    At Smile Care Dental, patients are viewed as partners in their care. The practice emphasizes clear communication, informed decisions and long-term oral wellness over short-term interventions.

    “We treat our patients as we would our family and friends,” say Dr. Adam and Dr. Joanne. “We take the time to understand their needs, explain every option and ensure they feel comfortable and confident throughout their care.”

    The clinic offers a full range of services, including family dentistry, emergency appointments, cosmetic and restorative procedures such as implants, root canals, crowns and wisdom-tooth removal. Located at 209 Pinebush Road, Unit 7, in Cambridge, the modern clinic provides a warm, welcoming environment supported by a compassionate, professional team.

    Recognition and Reputation

    Over more than two decades of service, Smile Care Dental has earned a reputation for excellence among patients, peers and the wider community. The practice has been recognized by local media and consistently ranks among the highest-reviewed dental clinics in Cambridge.

    The 2026 Consumer Choice Award further affirms the confidence that patients across the Waterloo Region have placed in Smile Care Dental and acknowledges its long-standing record of professional integrity.

    A Commitment to Prevention and Trust

    Central to Smile Care Dental’s philosophy is the belief that prevention is better than treatment. The team focuses on education, early detection and minimally invasive techniques designed to preserve natural teeth for life.

    Their approach can be summed up in three simple ideas:

    • The best dental work is no dental work.

    • Quality dental work lasts longer.

    • Prevention is better than correction.

    By prioritizing patient well-being above all else, Smile Care Dental has built relationships that last for decades – a testament to the trust they’ve cultivated since 2001.

    “Our goal isn’t to do more dentistry; it’s to help our patients need less,” says the team. “When we focus on prevention and education, everyone wins – healthier smiles, fewer procedures and greater confidence.”

    A Continued Commitment to Excellence

    As the field of dentistry evolves, Smile Care Dental remains focused on innovation that enhances patient comfort and long-term results. The practice continues to invest in advanced technologies, gentle techniques and preventive care strategies that align with its health-first philosophy.

    Looking to the future, the team plans to expand patient-education initiatives and community outreach, helping more residents across the Waterloo Region access reliable, ethical dental care.

    Founded in 2001, Smile Care Dental is an independently owned dental practice in Cambridge, Ontario, led by Dr. Adam Szymczak and Dr. Joanne Baldos.

  • Wellgistics Targets $70B Market Breakthrough Addressing Ozempic / GLP-1 Muscle Loss with Forzet(TM)

    • GLP-1 agonist market expected to grow from $70B in 2025 to $201B in 20301

    • Proprietary Forzet formulation provides pharmacists, physicians and patients with unique solution for GLP-1 drugs’ primary side effect

    • Forzet targeting preservation of muscle while on GLP-1 agonist therapy to facilitate continued patient adherence and muscle redevelopment following therapy discontinuation to help mitigate weight regain

       

    TAMPA, FLORIDA / ACCESS Newswire / March 9, 2026 / Wellgistics Health, Inc. (NASDAQ:WGRX) (“Wellgistics”) , a health information technology leader, integrating proprietary pharmacy dispensing optimization artificial intelligence (AI) platform EinsteinRx into its patented blockchain-enabled smart contracts platform PharmacyChain, today announced the launch of medical food Forzet™ for the dietary management of muscle loss associated with weight loss therapies. Forzet is being launched initially to physicians and pharmacists who prescribe and dispense GLP-1 agonist drugs. Forzet’s proprietary formulation has been evaluated in multiple controlled clinical studies, including in patients with Type 2 diabetes, heart failure and COPD in Europe. Forzet will initially be be made available through the Company’s affiliated pharmacy and select members of the Wellgistics Pharmacy Network. Forzet is classified as a medical food intended for the dietary management of muscle loss associated with weight loss therapies under physician supervision. Forzet is not an FDA-approved drug, is available over the counter and does not require a prescription.

    “Forzet is indicated for the dietary management of muscle loss associated with weight loss therapies,” said Prashant Patel, RPh, President & Interim-CEO of Wellgistics Health. “GLP-1 agonist drugs such as Ozempic®, Wegovy®, Mounjaro® and others are members of the fastest growing class of drugs worldwide because of myriad benefits that result from losing weight. While the benefits of the weight loss associated with GLP-1 agonist therapy can no longer be denied, it remains the case that a significant amount of that weight loss comes from loss of muscle. As such, the Company believes there may be a significant market opportunity for a medical food product that distinguishes itself from dietary supplements by virtue of its extensive clinical data package in sarcopenia associated with other muscle loss-related medical conditions and -stringent cGMP manufacturing requirements.”

    Mr. Patel continued, “We intend to leverage Forzet’s unique value proposition by recommending it as an adjunct solution for patients prescribed GLP-1 agonist drugs via pop-ups through our EinsteinRx hub technology at the point-of-sale in Wellgistics Pharmacy Network pharmacies. Additionally, as we build out our own telehealth customer base where we can more fully service patients through our own Wellgistics Pharmacy both in-store and online, we intend to make GLP-1 drug and related solutions such as Forzet a central feature of our direct-to-consumer (DTC) offering in order to drive loyalty by way of unique product offering as we begin to expand our DTC efforts.”

    “My practice primarily addresses patients seeking weight loss therapies,” said Dr. Vivek Bansal, MD MPH, Triple Board-Certified Endocrinologist and Founder of The EnLyv Clinics in Bridgewater, NJ. “We have been working through myriad products seeking to address muscle loss while on current weight loss therapies, and believe Forzet represents a unique solution that has worked well in other sarcopenia-related medical conditions. We are excited to make this available to our patients.”

    Dr. Bansal is an independent physician and has not been compensated by Wellgistics for this statement.

    The GLP-1 agonist market is expected to grow from $70 billion in 2025 to $201 billion in 2030 1 according to Grandview Research.

  • Beacon Oral Specialists Enters Jacksonville with North Florida Oral & Facial Surgery Partnership

    Latest New Market Entry Caps Year of Strategic Expansion and Positions Company for Strong 2026

    DALLAS, TEXAS / ACCESS Newswire / March 9, 2026 / Beacon Oral Specialists, a portfolio company of Blue Sea Capital, announced today the completion of a successful year of growth in 2025 with its expansion into the Jacksonville market through a partnership with North Florida Oral & Facial Surgery (NFOFS), the leading oral and facial surgery practice in the region.

    NFOFS operates five locations and is supported by a team of five surgeons serving the greater Jacksonville area. The practice was the fifth to join the Beacon Oral Specialists platform in 2025, alongside new partnerships in the Bay Area, Virginia, and Washington, D.C. As a result of this growth, Beacon now partners with more than 130 oral surgeons practicing across 106 locations in 12 states and Washington, D.C.

    In addition to practice partnerships, Beacon added 13 associate oral surgeons to its existing practices nationwide in 2025. Continued patient demand, driven by the clinical excellence and reputations of Beacon’s surgeon partners, also supported further expansion through four new practice launches in Las Vegas, Oahu, South Florida, and Chicago.

    “2025 was a defining year for Beacon,” said Mike Friguletto, Chief Executive Officer of Beacon Oral Specialists. “Our partnership with North Florida Oral & Facial Surgery reflects our continued focus on aligning with premier oral & maxillofacial surgeons in strategically important markets while supporting sustainable, long-term growth for our practices.”

    Beacon also celebrated its fifth anniversary in late 2025. The platform was formed in 2020 by Blue Sea Capital through the combination of two of the nation’s largest oral and maxillofacial surgery platforms. From an initial base of two practices and 37 surgeons, Beacon has grown into one of the industry’s leading oral & maxillofacial surgery-focused management services organizations, delivering strong organic growth while expanding its national footprint.

    Looking ahead, Beacon remains well positioned to continue its growth trajectory, having finalized a new Georgia partnership in the early days of 2026, planning several new partnerships, office openings, and preparing to welcome a newly signed class of oral surgeon residency graduates to the platform later this year.

    “Demand for the care from our surgeons remains strong. We are excited for the opportunities ahead of us to continue to broaden our often life-changing impact on oral health in communities across the country,” Friguletto added.
