Harvell Tammy

The general practitioner is moving late-day appointments to New Hope Road instead of downtown. Harvell Tammy, the dentist at NEW HOPE PROFESSIONAL BUILDING, occupies space near the Publix plaza that locals drive past every Tuesday. Cavities, exams, whitening, orthodontic referrals, root canals, and routine cleanings happen between 8:30 a.m. and 4 p.m., a shift that frees up earlier slots at other offices further east. She shares the parking field with accountants and an urgent-care clinic, so spaces are usually plentiful by the last tenant’s 5 p.m. close.

If you’ve circled the block twice for a closer look, drive straight to the second story via the stairwell marked 224; Suite I sits at the east wing near the vending machines. Reach the front desk before the last two o’clock slot fills by ringing (704) 867-7116. When you need the fastest route without rerouting through the interstate loop, pull up the directions page ahead of the 4 p.m. traffic hump.
