    I highly recommend Ann Geisler for malpractice insurance for providers and birth centers. Her plans are specifically geared to birth center practices both large and small. Ann has been answering questions about the various plans and what would best suit our practice. She has been readily accessible and prompt with quotes and other business-related issues. As a member of AABC, I encourage the organization to designate Ann Geisler as an endorsed affiliate.

    We have worked with Ann Geisler for more than a decade to find the best malpractice insurance options for the midwives of the Northern New Mexico Birth Center. Ann is an expert in insurance issues. She is thorough, honest, hard working, and has always searched for the best deal for our dollar. I trust her judgement 100%.I recommend Ann without reservation to be the endorsed affiliate for malpractice insurance for AABC members.
