About The Medicare Mensch – Your Medicare Insurance Agent in Philadelphia
As a Medicare insurance agent in Philadelphia, The Medicare Mensch has been ethically serving seniors, families, and individuals since 2014. Founded in the vibrant Fishtown neighborhood, our agency has grown to serve clients in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Washington D.C., Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Vermont, and West Virginia. While we’re deeply rooted in the local community, our expertise reaches far beyond the Philadelphia city limits.
Our Mission and Values
We believe in doing what’s right for every client, every time. That means clear explanations instead of confusing jargon, and recommendations based on what truly fits your needs—not on what pays the highest commission. Our goal is to build relationships that last years, not just until the ink dries on an application.

Why We’re Different
The Medicare Mensch isn’t a call center or an online quote mill. We’re a dedicated partner you can reach out to with questions—whether they come up at renewal time or in the middle of the year. We understand that Medicare and health insurance can be overwhelming, especially for those turning 65 or juggling coverage for family members of different ages. That’s why we take time to understand your unique situation before recommending plans.
Proudly Serving Our Community
From Center City and South Philly to Fishtown, Northern Liberties, and nearby New Jersey suburbs, our clients know they can count on us for friendly, local service. We also offer virtual consultations for those in our other licensed states, so distance is never a barrier to expert guidance.
