The job of an insurance agent is not only to sell insurance policies. He is expected to also help those to whom he has sold insurance to file their claims so that the settlement is as quick and hassle-free as possible. Not all agents take this part of their job seriously. Buy insurance only from an insurance agent that is known for client focus and for providing full and complete service, including with claim filing.
Gary was referred to me to assist a family member signing up for Medicare. He was a big help and made the process smooth and easy. He patiently explained the different options available. We chose the plan that worked for us. He then followed up to make sure everything was in place. I would highly recommend Gary.

I came in with little to no knowledge of the world that is health insurance and I left Gary’s office with full confidence. He was compassionate and patient when trying to find the right fit for me. Super grateful to have found someone that cares about people’s health and knowledge as much as Gary. Definitely give him a shot, you won’t regret it !

I had an excellent set of interactions this morning with Gary from Bay Area Health Insurance. He was exceptionally knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. I'm inexperienced in California and US health care and Gary took me through the situation step by step making sure I understood the process. He sorted out an excellent and inexpensive solution for my family that keeps us all safe. I give Gary and Bay Area Health Insurance my strongest recommendation.

Gary was incredibly helpful and answered all my questions promptly. Even when I chose to stay on COBRA and didn't initially use a policy through him, he reached back out when my eligibility changed and he was able to help me find the right policy for me. I couldn't have navigated the process nearly as quickly or as efficiently without his help.

Gary was referred to my by a friend and he didn't disappoint. He provided knowledgeable assistance with Covered California subsidy eligibility which was my main purpose in reaching out to him. Plus he thoroughly explained and communicated supplemental insurance options which I'll consider heading into my 60's. I highly recommend Gary!

Just moved to the Bay Area and once again found myself having to navigate the health insurance realm. I found Gary Church via Google Search and he was not only quick to respond to my inquiry, but efficient and knowledgeable when it came to finding the right insurance and explaining the differences between the options. He made the whole process easy and it took a lot less time than if I had attempted this on my own. Much appreciated!

I was referred to Gary by my previous insurance broker when I started my Medicare research. I feel like I hit the jackpot when I found Gary. He made the whole Medicare application process so easy to navigate, and he was patient and generous with his time, explaining the process and addressing my many questions. He explained that his support is ongoing, and I am already finding that I’m having a few follow-up questions, and Gary is always quick and friendly with his responses. I’d give him my highest recommendation.

My mom was having difficulty understanding all the options for Covered California and how to enroll via online, so I searched for licensed agent in person to possibly help my mom with her future health insurance options. I initially called Gary to help troubleshoot an issue my mom had with another agent who enrolled my mom in a possible scam plan. Gary was able to explain to me how Covered California worked, etc and the possible right path for my mom now and in the future. After explaining what he does and why he does it, this assured me that Gary was the right person to go to, so immediately set up an in person appointment for my mom and I to meet with him. My dad is retiring soon and my mom is on his insurance, so she was looking for other options. In addition, she would be eligible for Medicare in a few months. Gary was very informative and emphasized what would be best options for my mom healthcare wise now and also in the future. He truly cared, explained everything detail and did not try to sway us away from what worked best for my mom. Overall, Gary is very genuine, passionate and knowledgeable in helping others with healthcare decisions, etc. We plan to see Gary again when my mom (and my dad!) is ready to change her benefits soon.

I hit the jackpot when I found Gary online! I needed help with finding a Medicare drug plan. It was a busy time of year for him, but he made me feel like I was a VIP client, even though the only thing I needed was the least expensive Medicare plan. He was very friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable each time I talked to him. Getting someone on the phone that has all these qualities, who actually wants to spend the time to give you the best service possible, is a rare thing these days! Thanks so much, Gary!

5 Stars! Bay Area Health Insurance was recommended to me by a different insurance company that did not handle health care. I was helped by Gary and he communicated really well; he was very patient as I had no clue what to do and he went beyond my expectations to make sure my son and I was getting the right coverage. I am a happy customer. Highly recommend them.

I had a great experience working with Gary in getting the best possible health insurance for my situation. I had talked to Gary several months before my 65th birthday and discussed my needs. He gave me several options and because I was going to require major surgery in the near future, Gary suggested staying with Medicare A and B along with a supplemental policy through AARP. He said this policy would give me the most flexibility and the lowest out of pocket costs. He was absolutely correct. Gary provided me with all of the information and guided me to the best solution for my situation. I am completely happy with my choices and with Gary’s advice. If you will be transitioning to Medicare soon, I would recommend talking to Gary. He made the whole process easy and I got the best plan for my personal situation.

Gary helped a great deal to understand the options available for health insurance in my response to a call to Covered California certified enrollment agent assistance. He has been in the business a very long time and it shows. Friendly, professional, on time with Zoom calls, and made timely and appropriate follow up calls. Not pushy as an agent. He knows his stuff, and I recommend him if you are considering health and/or travel insurance.

Bay Area Health Solutions helped me get traveler’s insurance after I learned that the policy I purchased with my airline ticket did not cover Covid. Gary was very kind and patient with me and the process was a snap. All I needed to do was navigate the website and select the insurance I wanted from a number of highly rated carriers and purchase. It took ten minutes. I highly recommend Bay Area Health Insurance!

I have many Small Business owners as clients. I always tell all my clients to call Gary Church for Health Insurance. Gary has many years of experience, and he patiently explains the various options to my Small Business owners. My clients are super happy with Gary’s personalized services. Gary also offers International Health Insurance for people traveling to the United States. I got Visitor's Insurance for my mother who is visiting from India in April 2022. He helped me every step of the way. If you are going to be traveling outside the country, please talk to Gary before you travel, since your health insurance may not cover hospitals in other countries. Gary also offers Student Health Insurance. Never sign up for the University Health Insurance option before you talk to Gary! He can save you a lot of money! If you are an International student, traveling to the United States, please talk to Gary regarding the various options available. He really is super helpful, very friendly, very patient when it comes to Health Insurance!

I was referred to Gary by my sister. She was pleased with how he took care of her and her insurance needs and I must admit so am I. Looking for insurance is a very stressful situation, however, Gary steps you through the entire process holding your hand every step of the way. He made me feel comfortable with my decisions because he gave me background information on every available option. So if you’re looking for an insurance professional Gary is the one.

Gary is awesome. I think he was pretty straight forward, kind, and very eloquent in articulating his answers to the questions I had. He was not standoffish and actually concerned about getting me health, dental and vision insurance. I was referred to Gary by my boyfriend and I’ve already passed his name along to friends and family that I know.
