Patty Gogerty is the ABSOLUTE BEST person around to discuss healthcare for seniors! My husband and I are both nurses and are inundated with insurance "plans" and things wanting our money... She is smart, knowledgable, and available to her clients... We have told many people about her and what she can do for them, but many are skeptical, to say the least, with all we have coming at us daily..... We will never change! Give 'em heck Patty!
