About Us
Education First Approach
The Medicare system is complex. In fact, national surveys show that most seniors just don’t understand it. That means we work extra hard to continually educate ourselves and remain up to date on every new plan, option and regulation within the Medicare system, which is constantly changing. We go this extra mile because we firmly believe that educating clients with the power of knowledge is the only way for them to maximize their Medicare benefits.
True and Unbiased Advocate
At Gardner and Company, we realize that saving money in your retirement years is critical. That’s why we don’t just represent one company. We want you to have the power of choice and that includes being able to shop the market for the best available rates. You can rest assured we act as a true advocate for our clients, providing guidance on Medicare health insurance plans, and other types of insurance benefits.
We Keep our Promises
We believe that keeping our commitments to our clients is important because it not only helps to deepen customer relationships, but most importantly, gives our clients the resources they need to keep their promises to those who depend on them, and whom they love.
Full-Service Agency
While we’re best known for our Medicare expertise, we’re passionate about being your one-stop-shop for several different types of insurances and investment opportunities. No matter if you want to compare supplement policies or keep your nest egg secure, we’re here for you.
