Very professional. So nice in this day and age to have a knowledgeable and real person to talk to instead of an app or AI assistant.

I had a great experience on a call with Karl at The Big 65. He is very personable and easy to talk with about all the complexities of insurance coverage. He is also a good listener and fully understood my health insurance needs. By the end of the call I was signed up for a plan that I'm very happy with and I am so relieved that it has been taken care of. I highly recommend.

What a great experience working with Karl. I've managed my Advantage Plans over the year and never certain I was making the best choices, after talking to Karl I feel very confident. He is very gracious, personable, knowledgeable and has a great wit as well. My wife and I are so glad we found him.

Am extremely happy with everything. Service went well above and beyond. Made every effort to ensure that I was informed about the different options and customized what was recommended to my needs. Spent hours and hours making sure I knew everything I needed to know. I would not have been able to make an informed decision about options without Karl's guidance. Would highly recommend to anyone in need of these services and would have no hesitation reaching out to him again for other services.

If you want personalized, friendly navigation of a complicated system, a breadth of knowledge and experience, humor, and a commitment to your wellbeing, then make your appointment with Karl and The Big 65. Karl just guided me through all the applications and signed me up for the Medicare plans that will work best for me. I'm smiling.
