Receiving a cancer diagnosis can be a traumatic experience, often accompanied by overwhelming feelings of anxiety, fear, and stress. You may find yourself filled with questions. Cancer is a complex illness that requires a thorough approach to care. Since not all cancers are identical, the care provided must also differ. Finding the right team to treat YOUR cancer is crucial. At Piedmont Cancer Institute, we specialize in delivering personalized, comprehensive cancer care.
Founded in 1987, Piedmont Cancer Institute has been dedicated to supporting those diagnosed with cancer. Over the years, we have expanded our services to seven locations throughout the Atlanta metro area. Remaining a private practice has allowed our team to cultivate meaningful relationships with patients, ensuring that you receive the individualized care you deserve.
From the outset, our primary aim has been to provide the best possible care across all facets of treatment, clinical, mental, physical, and spiritual. Our physicians are equipped to treat various types of cancer and hematological conditions. Our team, comprising 18 physicians and 20 advanced practitioners, collaborates closely with your entire treatment network, including specialists, primary care doctors, family members, and caregivers, to create a tailored cancer treatment plan. We incorporate cutting-edge therapies, the latest clinical trials, and wellness programs to ensure you receive the highest quality of care.
Additionally, we offer convenient telehealth appointments, treatment education sessions, and social worker consultations, all easily bookable through our website.

Thank you, Dunwoody! You made this more than a vision
Brought to you by – Regency Centers
From the very beginning, we’ve seen Dunwoody Village—and our neighboring centers like Dunwoody Hall, Ashford Place, Williamsburg @ Dunwoody, Sandy Springs Plaza, Cornerstone Square, Cambridge Square, and Powers Ferry Village—as more than just places to shop. These are community spaces. Living, breathing parts of the neighborhood where connections happen, memories are made, and everyday errands turn into something much more meaningful.
We dreamed of a walkable, welcoming destination that felt like Dunwoody’s own version of “downtown.” A place that captured the heart of this city. But a dream like that only works if the community sees themselves in it— and you did. In fact, you’ve turned that dream into something far greater than we could’ve imagined.
We see it in the way patios fill up with conversation on sunny afternoons. We see it when neighbors run into each other unexpectedly and decide to stay a little longer. We see it when local business owners’ wave to familiar faces and when families turn a quick stop into a special outing.
You made that happen. So, from all of us: thank you. For showing up. For supporting your local businesses. For being part of this journey—whether you’ve been here since the beginning or just discovered
Angela Michael Skincare & Spa has proudly served the Dunwoody community since 2005, offering advanced skincare and facial treatments tailored to each client’s unique needs.

We’ve said that before, but as
the years go on and the stories keep unfolding, it only becomes truer. That’s why we’re pausing again—to say thank you for the second time in as many years. And honestly? We hope this becomes a tradition.
If you haven’t yet seen the story behind it all, take a moment to visit our YouTube page (youtube.com/ regencycenters). You’ll find behindthe-scenes glimpses and a Dunwoody spotlight that reminds us why we do what we do. Because at the end of the day, it’s not about buildings or landscaping or parking—it’s about community. It’s about belonging. It’s about that feeling you get when you realize this place was made with you in mind.
And we’re just getting started. We’ll keep listening, improving, and investing in ways that make this neighborhood stronger. Because that’s what neighbors do. And if we get to be part of your daily routine—even just for coffee, a haircut, a quick grocery run, or a walk with a friend—that’s something we’ll never take for granted. So, here’s to you, Dunwoody. Thanks for making these spaces something special. We’re honored to be along for the ride.

Thank you for trusting Edison Prep with your student’s college prep needs!
Brought to you by – Edison Prep
The team at Edison Prep is honored to be named the Best Tutoring Center in Appen Media’s “Best of Perimeter” for the fourth year in a row!
At Edison Prep, we work with students to help them achieve their goals in standardized testing and in college admissions. It is our honor to help 2,500+ students every year prepare for the SAT, ACT, PSAT, and AP History exams, as well as academic tutoring for middle and high schoolers! We’ve helped over 27,000 students since our inception! We couldn’t do it without the incredible communities of Sandy Springs, Dunwoody, Brookhaven and beyond, who continue choosing our company for their SAT/ACT test prep and academic tutoring needs.
Brian and Silvia Eufinger cofounded Edison Prep in 2010, offering 1-1 tutoring in students’ homes
and local coffee shops. In 2011, Brian and Silvia published the first edition of Edison Prep’s SAT and ACT curriculum—comprehensive workbooks with test content, strategies, and practice materials—which they continue to revise each year. The company soon added AP History Bootcamps to the yearly rotation. And since then, we’ve expanded our offerings to include SAT and ACT group courses, accelerated bootcamps, online video courses, newly expanded academic tutoring and AP tutoring options, and much more! The founders still teach all the SAT and ACT group classes (which is highly unusual in the test prep industry).
We pride ourselves in being a boutique tutoring agency with a small, highly experienced team— trained by Brian and Silvia—that has over 160,000 hours of experience in handling the private fine-tuning tutoring that about 66% of our
students do after taking a group class. We pay at the top of the market to retain top instructors who live and breathe these tests, be it by taking the real exams each year, dissecting tests that are hot off the presses, and/ or helping to continually refine our curricula and materials.
Edison Prep is frequently invited to speak about test prep and admissions at high schools, national education conferences, and education podcasts, and Brian served as a founding board member of the National Test Prep Association from 2020-2025.
And we are fortunate to continue growing our offerings! In 2023, we expanded our office space and added team members; in 2024, we reworked our SAT curriculum to align with College Board’s new digital SAT. And in 2025, we revised our ACT materials to reflect the ‘enhanced’ test format that debuted in September 2025.
We provide numerous free services—including weekly free mock SAT/ACT tests and live parent info sessions on college admissions. We also built a free scholarship database www.meritaidgrids.com that connects students with merit scholarships at over 200 colleges that are students are guaranteed based purely on their academic statistics!
All our services are available both in-person at our office and virtually. While most of our students are in greater Atlanta, technology allows us to serve families around the world: we have worked with students in 38 states and nine countries!
Our team is happy to help students create timely test prep plans that address their unique needs. Students and families can access free test prep resources, including diagnostic mock tests every weekend, and much more, at edisonprep.com!

Camp Run-AMutt™ Dunwoody features over 11000 square feet of indoor and outdoor play area for your dog to romp, play and socialize to their heart’s content! Watch your camper online as they run on the spacious grassy area, cool off in the custom waterfall/splashpond, relax on the sun deck or under the cooling misters on a hot day. We also offer dog washing, grooming, boutique, obedience training and surprises you’ll find only at Camp Run-A-Mutt™. Your pup will love it, and so will you. It’s not just the amenities that make us unique. Camp Run-A-Mutt™ is also 100% cage-free for both daycare and overnight boarding. Your pup will receive exceptional care by our well-trained, attentive staff who are certified in pet CPR and first aid.
Overnight Campers enjoy the security of a caring human in the same room while they snooze. Our goal is to make boarding fun by minimizing the stress and anxiety some dogs experience when they are away from home. “Pack boarding” instead of cages, human love instead of being alone, it’s a no brainer.

Home Helpers of North Atlanta celebrates 6th consecutive year as Best of Perimeter Home Care!
Brought to you by – Home Helpers of Alpharetta and North Atlanta Suburbs
At Home Helpers we appreciate the recognition our clients and their families have shown over the years for our commitment to truly personalized in-home care. Our deepest thanks go out to our supporters for our sixth consecutive win as Best of Perimeter Home Care for Seniors!
Recent studies show a growing and overwhelming home care trend with a growing senior population. More than 88 per cent of adults 65 or older now live in their own homes. Over 95 per cent of seniors want to age in place the comfort of home. The desire for independence, comfort, less stress, control of personal space, maintaining
routines, the stability of friends and family connections, and better mental health are all cited as key factors.
Achieving those goals when the basic activities of life get more difficult to manage for your older loved one requires an in-home care provider with a dedicated and professional team of heart centered caregivers. In-home care also plays a critical role supporting continued health by identifying ongoing changes. Subtle changes like fatigue, shortness of breath, weight loss, unsteady gait, forgotten medications or appointments and declining social interactions are early symptoms that need attention.
A Home Helpers caregiver has the skills to assist with all personal
care, help around the house, provide emotional support, safely speed up recovery from surgery, assist after a return home from a rehabilitation stay or after a stroke. We can also provide the specialized care needed for Alzheimer’s, Dementia or Parkinson’s support.
Expanding needs require more and flexible care options, and we have now added Nursing services as an added support system for families.
Hilary and Greg Eldridge set out fourteen years ago, inspired by family, to raise the bar for in-home care. “I saw what a difference personalized care made for my dad,” says Hilary. “I use his memory as a touchstone to provide quality care that engages the spirit of our clients and honors the
richness of their lives.” For the past nine years that commitment has also earned being voted the Best Home Care for Seniors in North Atlanta.
Whether home is a private house, assisted living community, apartment setting or even receiving additional assistance as you recuperate in a health facility, we can work with your older loved one to create a care plan and schedule to meet your needs. From four hours a day, several days a week to 24/7 care, we’re here to help. We can also provide live-in care alternatives that may be a more economical choice.

Making weekend hunger a thing of the past
Brought
to
you by – Backpack Buddies of Metro Atlanta
A young boy rummages through the teachers’ lounge on a Monday morning at his school. A teacher spots him and asks him what he’s doing. He says he’s looking for food because he’s hungry. The teacher then asks what he ate yesterday. The boy replies, “I only eat on Saturday, and my brother eats on Sunday.”
That young boy’s story - and the stories of so many other children in need - is what inspired the creation of
Backpack Buddies of Metro Atlanta.
Four years and over 1.5 million meals later, the young nonprofit has captured the hearts and minds of the community, while aiming to eliminate weekend hunger for Atlanta’s food-insecure children.
“This mission cannot exist without the support of the community,” says Board Chair Ron Kirschner. “Together, we are putting these children in a better position to reach their full potential, which is exactly what the world needs. Our wonderful volunteers, donors, and partners get so much fulfillment out of working with us. It’s truly a win-win.”

As a true independent living community, Mount Vernon Towers does not provide medical, nursing, or daily caregiving services. Instead, the focus is on an active lifestyle supported by convenience, amenities, and a strong sense of community. Executive Director Rita Malone often describes
the experience this way: “It’s like a cruise ship—just without leaving land,” a reflection of the vibrant environment, full calendar of activities, and opportunities available each day.
Over the past four decades, Mount Vernon Towers has distinguished itself not only through its structure, but through its stability. The community has remained financially strong through
consistent planning, responsible stewardship, and long-term decisionmaking, allowing it to evolve while maintaining the foundation residents rely on.
For many residents, the appeal lies in the ability to live independently without the day-to-day demands of home maintenance, while still enjoying a connected and engaging environment.
That balance continues to attract new residents, many through word of mouth.
Situated within walking distance of City Springs and the Sandy Springs Performing Arts Center, residents have convenient access to dining, shopping, and cultural events, all within a gated, established community.
Life at Mount Vernon Towers can be as active or as relaxed as each resident chooses. A full-service restaurant serves as a central gathering place, while a robust calendar of social, wellness, and fitness activities, along with an on-site beauty and nail salon, is complemented by scheduled transportation.
Mount Vernon Towers also offers a separate personal care and shortterm respite facility on-site, providing added flexibility for those who may need temporary support and welcoming individuals from outside the community.
At its core, the community is defined by a genuine sense of connection, where neighbors know one another, and friendships continue to grow.
Forty years in, Mount Vernon Towers remains a place where active, independent living and community come together.

I am so humbled and thankful to be voted the Best Personal Injury Attorney in the Perimeter area! We love being part of this wonderful community! I love being part of this great community whether it’s going to Lemonade Days just a few weeks ago, cheering on our favorite teams at Dunwoody High School, supporting Bring it Home Dunwoody, cheering on the amazing dancers at Dan & Company, or working out with F3. If you or a loved one are injured due to someone else’s negligence or recklessness, give us a call.
Last year, I highlighted what to do if you are injured in a car wreck. This year, I wanted to explain two key types of insurance you need to have in place before anything happens. Oftentimes, people shop for car insurance based on the price rather than on the type of protection provided. We have cases where someone is severely injured or even killed, but the other driver has a $25,000 “minimum limits” policy and the client does not have coverage that protects them when
this happens. Here are two types of insurance that you need to protect yourself if someone else injures you in a wreck:
(1) Underinsured Motorist (“UM” or “UIM”) Coverage. This is insurance that protects you if the at-fault driver doesn’t have insurance or doesn’t have enough insurance.
There are two types of UM insurance: “Add-On” and “ReducedBy.” You always want to have “AddOn” insurance coverage because it goes on top of or adds to the at-fault driver’s insurance. I recommend that your UM coverage match your liability coverage, which is the insurance that protects you if you cause a wreck.
(2) Medical Payment Coverage (“Med-Pay”). This is insurance that covers medical bills if you are injured in a car wreck. If you have health insurance, this can be used to cover your co-pays, deductible, and co-insurance. I recommend that you have at least $10,000 in MedPay coverage.
