Very happy with you guys!

Glad I went with you guys. Was not sure if we really needed the insurance but am very happy that we got it. The claims are processed and paid within a week with no hassles. Awesome customer service when I needed to contact an associate.

Torn ACL

Peppino tore his ACL/cruciate ligament and nationwide has covered his x rays exams and water/laser treatments. We are hoping to prevent him from having surgery and are very happy with the ease of claims and what has been paid toward his health. Thank you

Thank you for helping us when we need it most

My little Rufus is aging, and it's around that time where his little body isn't functioning like it used to. It really helps calm me and my anxiety - knowing that I have Nationwide to help alleviate some of the financial burden. Getting insurance for Rufus when he was younger was one of the best decisions and I don't regret it for a second. Thank you Nationwide for being there for us. We appreciate you.
