Testimonials
What My Clients Are Saying
![]()
About 9 months ago, I had the pleasure of retirement, enrolling in social security and choosing a Medicare health coverage plan for my wife and I. I had excellent computer skills and I planned to go online and sign up for Medicare. I quickly learned this was going to be a more difficult process than anticipated. I was referred to Melissa, a healthcare / Medicare insurance specialist. I had hesitations in the beginning but quickly learned the benefits of working with her. She came to our home, in person and asked questions regarding our medical needs. She was personable and listened to us and gave recommendations and details for Medicare options and plans. There was no pressure whatsoever. The goal is to choose Medicare plans and drug plans that are geared toward your family's specific needs and choose plans in the most cost effective way possible for your budget. Precise medical coverage for my family - nothing more, nothing less. This was achieved working with Melissa. She even helped us enroll in the medical plans. She answers all of our questions, she is always available and keeps us informed of any future changes. My wife and I greatly appreciate our ongoing professional relationship with Melissa. We highly recommend her. Thank you!
