"I didn't know how costly health care was going to be. My wife needs dialysis three times a week and I didn't know what I would do if I had to order an ambulance every week. ABRAZAR's drivers always help us get to the appointments on time and are always so polite and helpful. Your Transportation Program is a lifesaver."
