Exer – More Than Urgent Care


What if there was one place you could go for your family’s immediate heath care needs? Now there is! I have been there personally and received excellent care! Exer – More Than Urgent Care clinics are staffed by ER doctors but don’t have the wait or expense of the hospital ER. They can take care of any non-life-threatening condition, from the common cold to broken bones. Open 9am-9pm every day in Calabasas, Newbury Park and Beverly Hills, they accept all PPO insurance plans. No appointment is necessary, just walk in to be seen. Save their locations at www.ExerUrgentCare.com/locations  to your phone now for when the need comes up!

Apply Right – Stress Free College Applications


Referred by Jens List member Pamtolan@cox.net


“We can’t recommend highly enough the college essay editing services of Audrey Davidow. Audrey worked diligently teaching my son to become a writer. She didn’t spoon feed him what to write, rather she listened and taught him how to fine tune and refine his writing style. It ended up becoming an essay that made us both laugh and cry and introduced us to a side of our son we never knew existed. He was accepted early at the University of his choice and enjoyed a stress free senior year!”
