MedicAlert Member: Peter
Peter joined MedicAlert when he was just a teenager. Having suffered from epilepsy as a child, his seizures became more serious, that’s when his parents reached out to MedicAlert.
Peter tells us that having MedicAlert for all these years, not only reassures him, but provided
a great deal of comfort to his parents.
“MedicAlert has given me the comfort of knowing emergency responders are going to act accordingly if I become ill in any way. I would recommend it to everyone!”
