A

bout a year ago, one of the things we had planned for LIVING
WELL Magazine was to increase publication from four quarterly
issues a year. Fast-forward 12 months, and you’re holding the
first bi-monthly issue of the magazine. Going forward, look for LIVING
WELL every other month in your mailbox, at targeted locations throughout the area, and online.
It’s always rewarding when a plan or resolution comes together and you see
it all the way through to fruition. But it’s important to recognize that a goal
is only one piece of the larger puzzle. As we move forward into 2016, we
can’t rest on the fact that we actually made it happen and that we reached
our goal; we need to set our sights on making it better. With that in mind,
look for enhanced coverage of health and wellness issues, as well as a
wealth of legal matters that mature adults face. Written by top professionals
in their fields, their articles give you tools to live a healthy, fulfilling life.
One such professional is Dr. Tanveer A. Qureshi who’s featured on this issue’s cover. Dr. Qureshi began serving our community in 1978. He was
the first interventional cardiologist in Denton County and co-founded the
cardiology program at Denton Regional Medical Center, serving as the
Cardiac Catheterization Lab Director for over 25 years; he currently serves
in that role at Medical Center of Lewisville and Presbyterian Hospital Denton. Dr. Qureshi believes that the best physicians maintain a progressive
approach to medicine while working to take care of all the patients needs
in a holistic manner. Learn more about this dynamic doctor inside.

Plus, don’t miss the feature on Johnny Depp. After more than three decades in Hollywood, 52-year-old Depp is one of the entertainment industry’s biggest stars. His success and longevity in Hollywood is due to not
only his enormous talent, but also because he’s taken many career risks
with oddball and oftentimes even downright dark roles. One such role
is that of gangster Whitey Bulger
in the film Black Mass, which has
garnered a lot of Oscar buzz.
Check out this larger than life actor inside, along with all the educational content you’ve come to
expect from LIVING WELL.
Best regards,

Sam and Spring Houston
