Meet Dr. Ronald Tolbert, our resident veterinarian right here in College Park city!
There are many things he loves about his job, but COMMUNITY is definitely at the top of that list!
While he could have started and grown his animal clinic anywhere, he tells us in this episode how connected, supportive, and solution-driven this community is, and how these ties helped him keep pushing for success.
As Dr. Tolbert puts it, “I feel blessed for what the community has given me, and I think it’s time now that I give back to the community.” And so, almost 39 years after he built and grew Red Oak Animal Hospital, Dr. Tolbert is now an active member of the College Park and South Fulton County community, helping elevate it to newer heights!
Catch this episode of the Southside Show to learn more about Dr. Tolbert’s career journey as a vet, his thoughts about the advantages of pursuing a career in the Southside, the legacy he wants to leave for the city, and MORE!

They say life's most challenging test is bouncing back from our mistakes and failures.
But what if it seems like your wrongdoings are too many to count? Irredeemable? Is there still hope to become the best version of yourself?
Jay Morrison, our featured guest for today, asked himself those same questions.
If there's one thing he learned throughout his journey from being a high-risk youth and three-time felon to now being the successful founder of the Tulsa Real Estate Fund and co-founder of the Legacy Center...
...it's that your past doesn't have to shape your future.
Sure, turning your life around and achieving greatness takes time. But as long as you’re patient and embrace the long grind, the sky's the limit for you!
Watch this new episode of the Southside Show to learn more about Jay's inspiring transformation, the events that helped change his life, and his overall philosophy about growth and development.
