Perry Wellness Center founder and CEO is a certified peer specialist, but he is not a medical professional. However, he is an enthusiastic promoter of the medicinal virtues of the aloe plant. He even keeps the aloe plant in the inventory at Rudy’s Happy Patch Market.

“I hope that our customers never need aloe for discomfort, but it does work,” Stuart attested. Aloe is a natural antiseptic and is often used to treat minor burns, cut, and sunburn.
