What patients & families say

Chelsea H.·Spouse of patient·Feb 2026

I cannot recommend Shlomit enough. After spending overwhelming days in the hospital with my husband […], I felt completely lost navigating doctors, medications, tests, and treatment plans. Right before discharge, I urgently needed an independent medical expert to help guide us - and that is exactly what Shlomit did. My only regret is not finding and hiring her sooner.

Jennifer D.·Daughter of patient·Dec 2025

We hired Shlomit during a difficult hospital stay […], and she was exceptional in every way. Her extensive medical knowledge and firsthand experience working in hospitals are invaluable. From the moment she arrived, she coordinated seamlessly with the many medical teams, kept our family informed, and explained every step of a complicated hospital process.

Ann Marie S.·Patient·Nov 2025

Developing a "Patient Care Advocate" relationship with Shlomit Liberty was the absolute best investment that my adult son and daughter could have bestowed on me. Her professional background put her on equal footing with the medical team; she knew what to ask and how to position her requests for me so that they "heard" her clearly. Shlomit is the best of the best.

Alyssa W.·Spouse of patient·Feb 2026

Shlomit has the intelligence, compassion, and insight to guide families through the complexities of the medical world. […] With Shlomit by our side, we didn't just survive the chaos - we found guidance, understanding, and hope in a time that felt impossible.

Brian B.·Son of patient·Sep 2025

From the moment I connected with Shlomit Liberty, her combination of professionalism and heartfelt empathy completely reassured me. I was totally overwhelmed dealing with my mom's […] health issues and trying to make the right decisions. From the very first call, Shlomit made everything feel so much more manageable. She's incredibly knowledgeable, caring, and warm.

Andrea C.·Spouse of patient·May 2025

The deep concern and care that she had for my husband's situation, and the exhaustive research that she did on our behalf, are above and beyond excellent. She communicated directly with my husband's care team […] and asked about every detail of his rehabilitation process and care plan after discharge. We could not have found a better advocate and a more efficient problem solver.

Tess S.·Spouse of patient·Nov 2025

Shlomit Liberty has shown herself to be extremely knowledgeable in medical terms and conditions. This was very helpful to me during […] a very difficult and confounding time in the hospital. She is devoted and discreet, and her advocacy helped me navigate […]. She was kindness and efficiency personified.

JK G.·Patient·May 2025

She knows intimately the ins and outs of healthcare in the U.S., and she has helped me navigate the […] relatively tricky path to explain even my very own infirmities - which I thought I knew well - in a detailed, clear, and logical way to the powers that be. I recommend her without reservation whatsoever.
