Real Reviews from Happy Clients

“After researching various advantage insurance plans, I felt frustrated and stressed making this decision by myself. Mr. Barrett came to the rescue. In several days he found a plan that best suited my needs. Plus, I don’t pay a premium! He was readily available to address all my concerns. I am a very satisfied client.”
Dale Anderson
“WOW..Paul is so attentive to details and ALWAYS quick to reply to my concerns. I would recommend him to everyone I know. I am trying. I really don’t post reviews, but he deserves anything i can do for him. Very Knowledgeable.”
Danae
“Paul is an awesome broker and spent a lot of time helping me understand what was the best plan to get. He even sent a package of brownies after our phone conversation..who does these kind of things anymore.. I highly recommend him!!”
Doug Ross
“My Agent is Paul Barrett, I had a wonderful experience with him. He was professional, easy to talk to and very informative, as I knew nothing about getting medical insurance. Ive been telling family and friends about my experience and how satisfied I am. I also like the fact that he is available any time I might have questions. Thank you Paul”
Paulete Amendolare
“Paul is extremely good at what he does-helping people with their health insurance needs. He helped me tremendously. I found a good Humana Medicare Advantage Plan. He even helped me cancel a future-dated policy when my plans to move permanently to Tucson, AZ fell through. He’s very helpful-takes the time to answer all your questions, returns calls promptly-a real professional.”
Mary Unny
“Paul is just the best to work with. He patiently guides you through the crazy maze of the medicare system. He encourages you to contact him with any questions or concerns. He is extremely knowledgeable, and provides all the information you need to make a good decision in choosing the plan that suits your needs. I could not have done it without his help! Thank you Paul!”
Sandra Stabler
“When my Medicare Advantage plan suddenly stopped covering my doctors at Riverside Medical, I had no idea what to do. I was frustrated, anxious, and worried I’d have to change all of my providers. A friend recommended I call Paul Barrett — and I’m so grateful I did.
Paul took the time to understand my situation, walked me through all my options, and found a new plan that kept every one of my doctors in-network. He explained everything clearly, without pressure, and made the entire process effortless.
If you live in Los Angeles and your plan changes or your doctors fall out of network, call Paul. He truly knows this market and cares about getting you the right coverage. He saved me from losing the medical team I trust.”

— Patrick C.

Los Angeles, CA
“When Medicare Open Enrollment came around, I was completely overwhelmed. Every commercial, every flyer, every phone call just added to my confusion. My biggest worries were keeping my doctors here in Los Angeles and finding a plan that would actually lower my out-of-pocket costs. I didn’t know where to start — or who to trust.
A friend suggested I reach out to Paul Barrett, and it was the best decision I could have made. Paul took the time to explain my options in plain English. He checked every one of my doctors, compared my medications, and helped me understand which plans truly matched what I needed — not just what was being advertised.
Thanks to Paul, I enrolled in a plan that keeps all my doctors AND saves me money every month. The relief I felt after our call was incredible. He made a stressful process simple and helped me feel confident in my choice.
If you’re in Los Angeles and feeling overwhelmed by Medicare, talk to Paul. He genuinely cares and makes the whole process so much easier.”
