Since appointing Phoenix as my medical aid broker in June 2022 I have experienced nothing but exceptional service.

I have been a member of Discovery Medical Aid since 1997. Over the 24 years since joining Discovery I have had several Medical brokers, most of whom provided between little to no service, generally not replying to emails or ignoring telephonic calls. Phoenix is different. They immediately respond to any queries and monitor the query until it is resolved.

When joining a medical aid a medical broker is automatically allocated to you and the cost of this broker is included in the monthly levy paid to the medical aid. I can strongly recommend that anybody who is a member of a medical aid switch their broker to Phoenix. By doing this you will at least receive some value for the monthly that is automatically deducted for payment of a medical broker.

Although I have only been working with the Phoenix Group team for a few months, I have worked very closely with Clayton Samsodien on multiple clients. I have only experienced absolute professionalism and impressive efficiency from Clayton, who has an open, patient and friendly manner with everyone whom he interacts with. He is always willing to go the extra mile to assist his clients and their staff members with their requirements.

I would highly recommend the services of Phoenix Group.

“Dealing with Clayton is always a pleasure. He ensures that he keeps in contact with me whatever my requests are and always ensures to communicate with me. His customer service is impeccable and that is extremely important to me.”

Beverley Williams

“My experience with Phoenix has been nothing short of incredible. After a near death medical incident I was faced with the rude awakening that my finances were not in check. Clayton was very hands on and supportive – he made what was a daunting and intimidating task for me – easy, effortless and quick. My finances are now all organised and in order and I can sleep knowing that one aspect of my life is taken care of and in good hands.”
