Anna's clients face challenges that require current knowledge of health care law and a sophisticated understanding of its many legal gray areas.

It doesn't matter if the issue is big or small; if it's important to her client, it's important to Anna. Her philosophy? To paraphrase Martin Luther King, Jr.: the true measure of a person is not where she stands in good times, but where she stands in times of challenge.
Dedication, honesty and the ability to make tough calls−these are just a few reasons why our health care clients call on Anna.
