Linda New York, NY

I have wanted to get one of these devices for my mother for several years. She finally consented to let me purchase one after she fell and couldn't get up. I researched several companies, and this seemed to be the best one, including the latest automatic fall technology. Only minor point, the sales rep did not want to offer me the monthly pay option (as opposed to quarterly or annual) until after I told him it was available with online signup.

The experience was most professional and courteous. I spoke to the same person twice and he was most helpful. He suggested the device I purchased and the options available for payment. He answered my questions without hesitation.

We worked with Avant Jones, and answered all our questions and concerns. So far, we are very pleased with our experience with Medical Guardian. I did a lot of research on medical alert systems and your system fits my mothers needs well. Thanks for your help.

It was a pleasure working with Jeff when ordering the alert system for my mother, Mila Smiroldo. He made everything very simple. My review will be a 10+ I'm sure once I actually receive it , set it up and get it activated.

Ellen Walker was fantastic. She was very informative, kind and friendly. She was a real down to earth person not like some of the other companies that a called. Some sounded like robots and one was even rude, bashing Medical Guardian, he was horrible. Ellen let me take my time deciding which company to choose, answering my many repeat phone calls with patience. Very pleased.

A professional experience every step of the way. I feel secure and safe. Every single person I have dealt with at Medical Guardian from purchase, to setup, to activation, to testing made me feel like I was in good hands. Service and set up were both super fast and easy.

Have had them for a short time (less than 3 months) but have been pleased so far. They have answered all our questions and were very helpful setting up the system. One wish I would have is to have them answer an emergency call quicker than a full 30 seconds. But maybe it was slower because we were just setting the system up at the time. I think this is a very good company to do business with. The cost is in range of other companies offering this type of service. They are very quick sending you the equipment. Took only 3 days. When I requested an extra device I received it in three days also. Impressive!

Just ordered the Medical Guardian the other day ,so I am still waiting.The salesman called in response to me registering on a website.b T he salesman was persistant in his promises of a call back, without being be a bother or pushy. He was knowlegable about the product as well as an understanding of the needs of the consomer. All & all it has been a good experience.

Mike was wonderful, so understanding about the situation . My mom had fallen and broken her hip, she couldn't reach the phone . She had to pull herself along the floor, screaming with each movement. I never wanted her to go through that again. She is fiercely independent and I wanted her to keep that while being safe. Thank God I found Medical Guardian and Mike! I now can rest easy knowing my mom is safe.

Tye was very pleasant, informative, patient, and answered all my questions politely and fully. I really appreciated talking to him. I had been researching and reading reviews of other companies when he called. I'm looking forward to having the security of an alert if I fall. I'm active, balanced, strong, but 92, so who knows what might happen. . . . .

I will know more after we receive the equipment, but on the surface everything reads good. One thing I would like them to offer is a combination unit of the mobile equipment that I am getting and the fall equipment. I know that I can add it later, but I think it would be great if they had a combination of these two at a monthly price somewhere between the two separate pieces of equipment.

I was looking for life alert on the internet. I responded to 2 of them on line, medical guardian was one of them. Avant contacted me right away by phone. He was very pleasant and convincing me about his company without being a pushy salesman. He kept in touch and made me an offer I couldn't refuse. It was a bit better than the other company. I was pleased to find this company on the top 10 best for life alert system. I am waiting for the equipment to arrive and start using it. Thanks Avant.

Shannon was very patient with our family. We got the product to give peace of mind to our handicapped daughter who has developed a choking issue recently. She spoke with our daughter and myself to work out some communications issues. We were very pleased with the front end of the process.

Jessica was most helpful, but neglected to tell me about the Fall Detection feature, which is evidently very sensitive. If it goes off every time my brother rolls over in bed, he will quit wearing it. We will still give it a try. The comments also indicate that it needs to be set up. I was told one just plugs it in. Really too early to rate your service and product.

I recently purchased the unit for my 75 year old father after 3 falls in one week. The customer service representative was awesome. Also when we called in to check the system we had an excellent experience again. All in all very pleased. This is such a relief. They give me peace of mind while Dad remains independent. It's a win win situation for me.

The "Guardian" was easy to install, directions simple to follow. It takes limited space. I placed the wrist button on my husband, for whom the emergency system was purchased. He has been a paraplegic for 50 years with MS (and other...). I was told two pendants would be included, however, only one was in the kit. Otherwise, all is in order and ready to use whenever necessary.

The representative I spoke with was very knowledgeable of the equipment and how the system worked. When I received it and was setting it up, the lady I spoke with was very nice and explained everything I needed to do. She also explained I needed to check it monthly & instructed me how to test it. Everyone has been very helpful.

The representative was very helpful and answered all our questions. Got it for our mother. Setup went well. She got pendant and wrist bracelet. She only wears her wrist bracelet because she is hesitant about wearing pendant for fear it will go off if she bends down to tie shoe etc. The wrist bracelet is working very well so far. Paid for 2 day service and it took 5 days but they said they would credit it back. So far am satisfied with service.

just recently ordered this service. TIme to put in place is a little lengthy given priority mail (2 day service) should be readily available. The person i spoke with was great.. very informative and helpful in making assessment of needs. When they put into place the "drop alert" (add on) it will bring a much needed broadening of the service to many. I believe I chose the right company for my needs after considerable research.

ONE SECOND ST SO FAR SO GOOD. I DID WEAR THE FALL ONE TO BED AND IT WENT OFF. I HEARD IT CALL TO ME AND IT TOLD ME HOW TO CANCEL THE ALERT, WHICH I DID. NOW I WEAR THE OTHER ONE TO BED AND WEAR THE FALL ONE DURING THE DAY. I WISH I HAD A BASE I COULD PLUG INTO THE BEDROOM AREA AS I DOUBT ANYONE COULD HEAR MY SPEAKING IF I HAD TO PUSH THE BUTTON FROM WHERE THE BASE IS NOW. WOULD HATE TO HAVE EMTS COME IF I DIDN'T REALLY NEED THEM. I HAD A DIFFERENT SYSTEM ONCE AND IT HAD A SMALLER BASE WITH THE MICROPHONE IN IT THAT I COULD PUT IN ANOTHER AREA. I DID LIKE THAT.

We needed a response one time. We held the button as instructed. When I received no response I phoned 911. The ambulance was at my door with EMTs in my house before I had any response from Guardian. We are dealing with repeated life threatening heart issues. That timing is unacceptable."
