Today, we’re thrilled to celebrate one of our incredible patients: Col. Larry A. Elliott.

Did you know? Larry was a Reconnaissance Systems Officer (RSO) on the legendary U.S. Air Force SR-71A Blackbird, the fastest and highest-flying jet ever built! Interestingly, the aircraft was originally designated the RS-71, short for “Reconnaissance,” but during its unveiling, President Lyndon B. Johnson accidentally announced it as the SR-71. No one wanted to correct the President, so the name stuck!

On July 28, 1976, Larry and Captain Robert C. Helt set a world record for the highest altitude in horizontal flight, soaring to a jaw-dropping 85,068 feet over California. That’s over 16 miles above the ground! (For comparison, commercial airplanes cruise at around 35,000 feet.) The Guinness World Records and National Air and Space Museum honor Larry for this incredible achievement.

We’re proud to provide medical care to real-life heroes like Larry. The next time you visit, you might just be sitting next to history!

👏 Thank you, Larry, for your service and for sharing your amazing story with us!

Managing Rosacea & Winter Redness
As temperatures drop, many people with rosacea notice increased redness, irritation, and sensitivity. Cold air, harsh winds, and indoor heating can trigger flare-ups, making winter a particularly challenging season for those with rosacea. If your skin feels more reactive this time of year, you’re not alone - here’s how to keep it calm and comfortable.

Why Rosacea Worsens in Winter
Winter weather creates a perfect storm for rosacea flare-ups. Cold air and wind strip moisture from the skin, while indoor heating dries it out even further. Rapid temperature changes like stepping from the cold into a warm room - can cause blood vessels to dilate, leading to increased redness and flushing.

Tips for Managing Rosacea During WinterMoisturize & Protect
Use a gentle, fragrance-free moisturizer daily to help maintain the skin barrier. Look for ingredients like ceramides, hyaluronic acid, and niacinamide to soothe and hydrate. Apply sunscreen with at least SPF 30+ daily, as winter sun and wind can still trigger flare-ups.

The Ruby-Throated Hummingbird: A Marvel of Nature

Spotted at the feeder recently! These tiny birds are true migration champions
• They can travel non-stop for up to 18 hours across the Gulf of Mexico during their migration.
• Despite having a brain smaller than a grain of rice, they return to the exact same spot every year, guided by an incredible internal GPS.
• Right now, they’re heading south for the winter, preparing for their long journey. Come spring, the same bird will be back at this very feeder all the way from Mexico!
