Have to admit, as someone who grew up in "Huntingdon" and had to explain that it wasn't "Huntingdon Valley," this bugs me.

There is no "Huntington Valley, Pa."

There is only "Huntingdon Valley, Pa."

from 1962-1980. Some of my ancestors were even buried there in the 1700s. Both Rod Rosenstein and Valerie Plame attended Lower Moreland High School.

And, I had no idea about Valerie Plame and Rod Rosenstein.

I live next to Lorimer Park . It’s still a beautiful area!

medical supply store (Guardian Angel Products, Inc.) under the name of Dr. Lemole who is an MD and a relative of Dr. Ozs’ wife & a member of the Asplundh family.

The business is in a seedy strip mall and is owned by WASPLUNDH, LLC.

There is no sign and the phone # is a non-working # . There’s no way he lives here!

The Asplundh Co. was sued by ICE for hiring illegal immigrants-

I just read his address ...2771 Philmont Ave which is about a mile from the house I grew up in for 18 years.

I decided to see what his house looked like about 15 minutes ago and Goolge Maps said it was a medical supply store. I live in CA and wondered if the local news is reporting on the discrepancy. When I saw Guardian Angels Medical Supplies I thought I had the wrong address and double checked it.

I don’t know if you recall this seedy strip of shops.
It hasn’t changed much in the past 40 years!

The business is owned by the family of Dr. Ozs’ wife, Lisa.
Dr. Gerald Lemole is Dr. Ozs’ father-in-law & he appears to be in his 80s now. He is/was a cardiothoracic surgeon- So, I suppose Oz thought he could use this now defunct family business as cover. But, he definitely does not live here & never has!!

I told my husband I want to go take pictures of the place and then contact the media.

- Will keep you posted!

From the replies on this Twitter thread about this false address a ton of people have noticed the problem too. I wonder why the local media isn't picking it up. I'd call if I were you.
