“Dear PoPville,
I am looking for local recommendations for orthodontists for adults. Those located in NW DC would be even better.”
“Dear PoPville,
Seeking recommendations for custom orthotics makers. I have a referral order, but the only company on the doc’s suggested list of providers is inconveniently located and has terrible online reviews! A different place I found nearby hasn’t bothered to return my call in weeks. So I’d like to avoid the headache (and the foot ache) and just find a place that will get the job done!”

“Dear PoPville,
I wanted to reach out to spread the awareness about an unwell man in Navy Yard. As quick background, our dog was born with a medical condition and walks with a bad limp. We have been treating it since he was a puppy but there is nothing we can do until he is older. He’s given pain medicine (as needed) and is well taken care of and frequently sees the vet.
Last week, a man with blue hair approached my girlfriend while she was walking our dog and continuously commented on our dog’s leg. She asked him to leave her alone and was able to walk away.
This morning around 7:20 am, the man approached her again. He was screaming at her, followed her, kept trying to get close to her, and at one point even laid in the street. Read More
