First I did not have to contact Sam's Hockaday first. Your representative was out walking my street looking for clients. Second the support, advise, and service I have received has been better than I had expected. Very satisfied
C.M., Customer
You made it easy by coming to my home to discuss options for a Medicare Supplement, explained the choices and providers clearly so I could make the best choice for my needs, went above and beyond to help me select the best drug plan for my needs, provided phone numbers and web sites so I could finalize my choices, and followed up afterwards to make sure there were no problems. And when I thanked Laura Pecina for her efforts, she said she was just doing her job. I greatly appreciate both Laura Pecina and Sams/Hockaday, and will be proud to recommend them to others.
B.N., Customer
My Agent Laura Pecina has been very through in explaining all aspects of supplemental insurance for me and has followed up faithfully during renewal time.
