Zubin Sethna Jackson Heights, NY

Just started looking into a medic alert system for my mother. On the web site, I sent off for information. Before I knew it, Kevin G. called me to discuss my options. He answered all my questions. I was not ready and wanted to do some more research. No sales pressure and when I was ready, I contacted him via e-mail to answer some more questions. Once again no pressure or hidden costs. Everything is on the web site and did not feel like I had to get a call just to be pressured to buy.

Avant was very personable and helpful when I asked questions. I only caught him once "out of character". When a person has to be "in character," I get doubtful about their sincerity as a CS rep. Also, there were two things that did not set well with me: I did not get a confirmation e-mail immediately nor a charge to my credit card until Monday. That means that you may have the inability to "do business" properly on the weekend. If that is the way your system is set up, it might merit some review. Avant told me that I would get free two day shipping and that the equipment would be here Tuesday. I just now got the tracking number and it isn't even registered as being picked up yet. Knowing how UPS does business, that means it may arrive tomorrow but most likely, it will be Thursday. I also was not given the option of paying one month. It was four months or nothing. How is that different from a "contract" of sorts? Your Internet reviews are excellent but I am not impressed so far. It makes one wonder if the service would be like 911 putting a person on hold when they call.

My experience with your customer service/sales person Chris DiLullo could not have been better. He was well informed, extremely courteous and helpful. It was a pleasure to speak with Chris. He was able to answer all of my questions and concerns and provided me with his direct line to get back to him should I wish to proceed with the order, which I ultimately did.

After extensive online research and phoning several companies, I settled on Medical Guardian. This was in part because of the assistance of Ellen Walker, their knowledgeable salesperson. Medical Guardian provided the services I wanted for my mother without trying to add on other items or providing cheap discounts and inducements. I feel much better about being six hours away from my 85 year old mother knowing she has this extra protection from Medical Guardian.

From initial assistance with our phone call to inquire about this system to the polite, patient, and personal activation assistance, Medical Guardian wowed us with their helpfulness, personal interest, and professional representation of their company, product, and promise of exceptional service. I have peace of mind knowing Mom is able to summon help if I'm not by her side and she needs assistance. Thank you.

The sales rep. Michael was very helpful and explained all of the different systems to me. I purchased the mobile system for my mother to use and she is relieved to have a system to get her help quickly if she needs it. After reading all of the reviews and researching the different companies I feel happy with the product. The system arrived quickly and was easy to set up.

After shopping around for some time, I found Medical Guardian was the best in meeting my requirements. I called and spoke to Jason. He was courteous, helpful, and answered all my questions professionally and with much care. He is great!! I am looking forward to receiving the equipment for my mom in the next few days. I am sure paying for the whole year in advance was the right decision. Thank you so much Jason!.

we haven't received the prod. yet but the sales lady was amazingly helpful and knowledgeable...her father even uses the device. Put me totally at ease and then let the product and her service and first hand knowledge sell me on the product. No high pressured salesperson standing behind their product, just the true business and rating/reviews... I am still getting calls back from the competition after buying from the best!!! Thank you for the true sales customer service which makes me feel absolutely comfortable putting my mom's life in this company's hands

Joe was very helpful, professional, and caring. He answered all questions we had and was very knowledgeable about your products. It was very easy to sign up and we are looking forward to the ease of installation promised by Joe. The only question I have (I didn't think of it while talking to Joe or I am sure he could have answered it) was when we should expect to receive the shipment. Thank you for making this an easy process!

Very satisfied with customer service by Kevin Glim. Kevin showed his consideration for my personal situation and was always compassionate to my very delicate situation with my family member. Kevin reassured me of all vital information related to delivery and did an awesome job to keep me informed on tracking the items ordered. Highly recommend this product based on past experiences and the great people skills I received from this representative. Great relief! Many thanks!

Tracy answered every question and even those we didn't know to ask. He completely covered every aspect of the system and our needs. He did it in a manner of providing information and not a high pressure sale. I purchased this service for my mother and as I told her you don't know you need it until you do need it then it is to late. I reviewed a number of other vendors and this had the best bang for the buck.

I set this system up for my 90 year-old mother. We both have peace of mind knowing this is a reliable resource. Recently, my Mom was relaxing on a lounge chair on her porch with the house door closed. She must have adjusted her position which accidentally set off the fall detector. Mom did not hear the monitor inside the house calling to her. Neither did she hear the Call Center calling the house phone and my cell phone was left in my car while I was out doing errands. No one was available to relay that Mom was safe at home so the local EMT's in her town were dispached to her home. You can imagine my Mom's surprise to find three EMTs hovering over her on her porch when she was perfectly fine. Now Mom knows how reliable the system is and also to take her cordless phone with her when she is out of earshot of the monitior. Also, Mom tapes the monitor to her PJ's at night to prevent false alarms if she changes positions in her sleep.

Terrible. Elderly people need this service and you have made it so difficult. We received the wrong and missing equipment twice. Customer service kept calling my mother and contacting her about the service agreement and the device was terrible and difficult to set up. When I crashed to return the divide and cancel, the customer service rep was not helpful and even made that process too complicated for an elderly person that would need this type of device. Med Guardian is completely tone deaf to the needs of its customers. I will never recommend or use again for an elderly friend or relative.

I haven't had it very long but I guess it's average. It was explained very well and it was supportive and helpful. It doesn't look very good when you wear nice clothes.

I was told it would be able to contact my father if he fell. Now I am being told that there is a disclaimer that it may or may not. He has fallen several times and only once has it actually contacted him. You tell me (I am the dtr who bought it as reassurance that if he fell someone would know) that he needs to push the button. also there is no one in customer service on the weekends.
