These new physicians will allow us to better serve patients in Wake County.<\/p>\n<p>We also welcome Matt Ballard, the manager of the UNC Farm at Penny Lane. Claudia Driver, our clinical director at Wake Encompass, will take on an expanding clinical director\u2019s role as she transitions to the STEP Clinic at Carr Mill.<\/p>\n<p>I want to extend a special thanks to Aaron Nelson, the founding chair of our Advisory Board, who enthusiastically provided leadership for nearly five years and \u00a0has recently stepped down.<\/p>\n<p>Michael Williams,\u00a0 a board member since 2015, \u00a0has graciously agreed to serve as chair of our advisory board.. It is a pleasure to have Michael in this leadership role.<\/p>\n<p>I appreciate the support of our staff, board, donors and patients.
