At Sams/Hockaday Insurance you get the best from the best. It's nice to know that there are agents out there that take pride in their work and care for the wellbeing of their clients. Everything is explained in detail and you are fitted with the best group for your needs. Plus if the rates are raising the agents will find a new company with a lower premium but carries the same great coverage. What more can a client ask for!

It has been a long time since I had to look for insurance coverage as I was covered by my employer. Now that I am going on Medicare and will no longer have insurance coverage by my employer, I needed someone with knowledge in the field to help me. Pat was not only very knowledgeable, she took the time to research the different companies and found me the best coverage for the cost.

K.I., Customer
You showed up at my door before I was ready to get supplemental insurance. But I remembered you because of it. Then, before I signed with you I had tried to see if I qualified for any help with costs thru Human Services. I didn't, but I was told by a caseworker to check online for what was offered. When I mentioned your company, she said you were very competitive and up to date. She had a good report about you. You have been very attentive, friendly and helpful at all times.
Customer since 2015
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! Linda & Harold Baldock
L.B., Customer
Patty has always been responsive to my needs and gone out of her way to find the right fit.
I.H., Customer
We appreciate Patty because she always takes into consideration each of our needs individually. I feel that it is important because each of our needs is different. Consequently, we each are assigned to a different carrier. Thank you Patty.
D.S., Customer
Patty is so knowledgeable and helpful on Medicare supplemental and helps us navigate through this with ease. We have and will continue to recommend friends and family to her.
L.W., Customer
You are there to help with any questions or concerns we have.
B.C., Customer
Patty, you have helped Cynthia and myself to understand a little better what exactly Medicare is and how it works for us. I appreciate your patience with both of us. The ever changing rules are not easy to understand and you have helped us bridge the gaps of misunderstanding we have. We trust you to give us the correct advice.
L.D., Customer
You always get back to me when I need help. You check on my status yearly to make sure I don't need any kind of upgrade. I feel your agency has a lot to offer in the scope and view it has of the insurance industry. That is why I recommend people to call you before they go to other supplement companies.
L.L., Customer
Patricia is so knowledgeable and helpful. I felt confident I was making the right supplemental insurance decision.
L.W., Customer
Your company continues to give great customer service. That is the mainstay of an exceptional company. The employees all must share in that belief which makes them exceptional as well. Keep up the good work!
M. W., Customer
Because you have an older representative, I feel much more trusting. This person has not only seen and learned about all customers, but she has experienced her own life and understands closer to home the needs of those getting older.

My agent, Patty Gogerty, is always available to answer questions and prompt in response. She is always looking for the best option for me on my coverage.
L.H., Customer
Patricia is very helpful with details of what we need for coverage of services
M.M., Customer
I was in search of a new Medicare supplement plan when I got a call from Patricia's office. I met with her a few days later, and she helped me through the entire process of picking a new plan. I had been contemplating other changes for a month, but the choices started to confuse me. So, Patricia took the time to explain the differences to me and in no time a all, I had a new plan. I wish I had called her a month ago. Many thanks to you Patricia, and Sams/Hockaday.
R.M., Customer
I have had nothing but great service and ease of knowing that the right decisions are being made for my best interests. All i have to do is ask a question and i get a really quick response or solution. Patty is very professional but also very personable which makes me feel secure when dealing with her.
