It was like one stop shopping.

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!
Marilynn W., customer since 2015
I met about a Medicare supplement policy. I enjoyed meeting with Patricia Gogerty and she was so helpful. I would definitely recommend my friends who are retiring to meet with her. I will admit I was not "ready" to go on Medicare, but we all reach retirement age whether we like it or not!! But, I was very glad someone referred me to meet with Patricia Gogerty. She put me at ease and walked me through exactly what I needed. She was great!!
