My husband and I used Barry Schumann a few years ago to help us find affordable insurance, and we were very pleased with the results. Naturally, when we found ourselves in need of new insurance, we contacted him. He is very quick to respond to emails and calls. He asked all the right questions to help us find something we would be happy with and could afford. He is professional, knowledgeable, helpful, and very patient!
I highly recommend him! 5 stars!

Barry was great! I was down to the wire for insurance enrollment and, as a self employed person, it can be really hard/confusing/unaffordable to fine healthcare via the marketplace. Barry walked me through all of the plans available to me, explaining clearly what each offered in terms of deductible, constance, prescriptions, etc. and gave real life examples of how those might be used. Healthcare in this country is nearly impossible, but Barry made it a lot easier to understand and I was able to find something I can afford. I’ll definitely be sending other folks to him— thanks Barry!

Barry was incredibly knowledgeable and helped my (recently married) husband and I through the entire process of finding a policy for the two of us. Finding health insurance through the marketplace has always stressed me out, and Barry stayed calm and collected through the whole process. I feel very confident with our plan going forward and can't recommend Barry enough.
