Greg Walstra of Greg Walstra, Financial Concierge Services recognized for excellence in service to area medical professionals

Wheaton, IL (January 16, 2012) – According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, there are approximately 700,000 physicians in the United States who work in excess of 60 hours per week. While their earning potential is the highest among any profession in the US, a blizzard of government regulations and a host of clinical and economic issues leave little time for a doctor to manage their professional and personal lives.

In response, an elite group of professionals is emerging as specialists to the medical community. In recognition of his work with area health care executives and physicians, Greg Walstra of Greg Walstra, Financial Concierge Services has been named an MD Preferred Financial Partner. Each year, US Medical Specialties, Inc., a national medical consulting firm, recognizes excellence in service to the medical community in a number of disciplines including real estate, mortgage lending, insurance, accounting, banking, financial and legal services. The goals of the MD Preferred Program for financial partners include identifying, acknowledging and promoting professionals who provide service excellence to the medical community.
Greg Walstra remarks, “In a growing environment of physician shortage, I understand that many physicians considering a career in our community will make their decision based on life style issues. This is why I believe that concierge-level administrative and financial services that save the physician time are critical to their overall lifestyle, and greatly enhance work-life balance.”

MetroBoard Night Out at Le Fleur de Lis – Raising Funds for Community Projects | Chicago Press Release Services - Chicago's leading press release newswire service; professional press release services, press release distribution and newswire services.

Lindemann places 10 to 12 logs of high-quality, kiln-dried oak in easy-to-handle red burlap bags and leaves one bag with each basic service.  Afterward, customers can drive to the company in Lake Bluff and take 12 more bags at a time – up to 36 bags — which signals time for the next cleaning. Bags are easy to carry, to load into a trunk or SUV, and drive home.

Lindemann believes it’s the only fireplace and chimney service company in America providing free firewood.  And it believes the equivalent cost of firewood over time pays for the cleaning and inspection.  Cleaning removes creosote – a fire-hazard tar inside chimneys – with triple-filter HEPA vacuums and protections to keep the home clean.  Inspections include careful visual and video scans of the fireplace and chimney lining seeking cracked/missing mortar or bricks that cause problems.

Lindemann has been a leading Chicagoland fireplace and chimney service organization for 43 years.  They offer highest-quality services with highly-trained and nationally-credentialed technicians.  Lindemann is recognized for industry leadership and technology and sets standards in its field.  For information on Free Firewood for Life, check www.cleanfireplace.comor call 847-450-0552.                                                                ###
