Mr RogersKindness, sensitivity and very patient at explaining. Very impressed. Made a sad time the easiest it could be.
Vivien TurnerMy 89 year old mother who was about to go into a care home was very anxious and worried about the whole process of the lasting power of attorney, especially the health issues. Tammie was very good at reassuring her, especially in the sensitive area of the decision about life-sustaining treatment.
