WHAT A FEW OF OUR CLIENTS SAY
“Do your small business health benefits with her,
you will be glad you did”Our small business was ready for a group health plan, but found ourselves struggling with analysis paralysis trying to figure it out on our own. Leen took the time to get to know us and what we were looking for. She provided options and was patient with the many questions we had. We ended up with a medical/dental/vision solution that provides quality coverage to employees and is cost effective for the business. Her experience and attention to detail has been greatly appreciated!
Leen is very well educated on the in/outs of what is important to a small business and she matches that up with the best health plan that will be very cost effective to the business and helps with employee retention. If I were a business with multiple employees and need health benefits Leen would be my go to person. Leen is honest, kind, and knows how to get the job done effectively… Do your small business health benefits with her, you will be glad you did.

“There was no better path to take than to trusting you to solve our medical insurance dilemma”The year started with TPS searching for a path to secure medical coverage for our company, as we had been notified that the coverage in place would not be renewed. The many paths we took trying to remedy this situation led to a referral to you.
What a stroke of luck for us as you were able to lead us through the maze of possibilities and offer many different levels of coverage through a number of different providers. Most important were your opinions on how to best structure the different plans to suit the needs of the business and its employees.
Once we selected a provider, the help and guidance that you and Christine provided in the application process for coverage as well as guide us through the enrollment process further reinforced our feelings that there was no better path to take than to trusting you to solve our medical insurance dilemma.
Now months down the road, with things running smoothly, and with your help and guidance just a telephone call away, I would like to thank you for everything, and look forward to a long prosperous relationship.

“GBP analyzed their situation, proposed options, and implemented a solution that they were happy with”I encouraged one of my clients to work with Group Benefits Partners when they were struggling with how to implement a new health insurance plan for their employees.
With a limited budget, they needed help exploring what options were available in the marketplace that made sense for the demographics of their workforce.
GBP analyzed their situation, proposed options, and implemented a solution that they were happy with. Their service following implementation continues to be outstanding, and we appreciate the opportunity to work with GBP as we support the HR needs of this valuable client.

“I have known leen now for 10+ years and she has been great to work with”There are a few times you meet someone that is just genuine in what they say and do. Leen is that. Leen is a straight shooter that will just tell you how it is and that’s better than just selling you something you don’t need.
I have known Leen now for 10+ years and she has been great to work with. I would highly recommend working with Leen she is a true professional in her line of business.
