Local healthcare landscape in Leland
The Town of Leland's Leland 2045 plan, adopted by the Town Council on November 18, 2021, describes the area west of the Village Road interchange with US 74/76 as including much of the historic origins of Leland, says it has been referred to as the gateway to Leland, and notes it was named the Gateway District in the 2009 Master Plan. The same chapter names Brunswick Forest as one of its large, planned developments. The town's Guiding Plans page describes infill planning starting with the Gateway section and surrounding areas. Novant Health Brunswick Medical Center, in Bolivia, NC, says it has been part of the Brunswick community since 1977 and lists 24/7 emergency care, heart and vascular care, and maternity.

Who practices in Leland
People, not offices: each row counts NPI-registered providers whose practice address is in Leland, by primary specialty. Per resident, physical therapists are the group furthest above the US (1.3 times the US rate) and plastic surgeons the lowest (none matched inside the city).

| Dentists | 21 | 1 per 1,701 | 1 per 1,340 | Well below |

What Our Clients Say
I’ve had a great experience working with Medi-Edge. They helped design and build our website and have also been handling our SEO and online advertising. I’ve been very satisfied with both the quality of their work and the results so far. Kellen, the owner, has been especially great to work with. He’s been very responsive, helpful, and personally involved whenever I’ve had questions or needed assistance. It’s been nice working with a company where the owner is accessible and genuinely cares about making sure you’re happy with the service. Overall, the entire team has been easy to work with and understands the needs of a dental practice. I would definitely recommend Medi-Edge to other dental /medical practices looking for help with their website, SEO, and digital marketing.
As a fairly new business going into our 5th year I can say this company truly walks it like they talk it. There are many companies promising new companies the stars and the moon and as a new business you have to take risks and invest. If your looking stop and sign up with this company, constant communication, monthly updates, and can always reach them whenever you need an update to your website or help with your google business. I'm glad we found this gem and we always keep it real at IMED DTLA so if your a new business this is your sign. Not only are the prices reasonable the work is amazing and efficient!
I’ve had a great experience with media-edge marketing Kellen and his team are very responsive and always get to my requests in a timely manner. They are also kind, flexible and seem to care about my business and success which is important to me as a new small business owner. Looking forward to growing with them!
