Jordan Williams+FollowBig changes coming to Ocala shoppingBJ’s Wholesale Club is finally setting up shop in Ocala, and it’s not just another store—it’s the anchor for a huge new development in the Winding Oaks community. This means more shopping options, new jobs, and a big boost for the area, especially for those tired of driving to Lady Lake for bulk buys. The development will also bring nearly 1,700 new homes and upgraded infrastructure. With Ocala growing fast, this could really change the way locals shop and live. What do you think—will BJ’s shake up the local retail scene? #Business #LocalBusiness #Ocala00Share
David Hernandez+FollowOcala doctor on probation after prescription mishapA local Ocala doctor is now on probation after state officials found he prescribed unnecessary thyroid medication, which led to a patient’s heart attack. The patient’s original labs were normal, but the doctor increased the dosage anyway, resulting in a serious medical emergency. Now, he faces a $7,500 fine, mandatory education, and a year of close supervision. This really highlights how much trust we put in our healthcare providers—and how critical it is to double-check and ask questions about our treatment. Have you ever felt unsure about a prescription or second-guessed a doctor’s advice? #Health #BodyHealth #Ocala00Share
