I cannot recommend William highly enough. He is incredibly passionate and knowledgeable, but what…read moretruly sets him apart is his compassion and genuine care for elders and their families going through difficult transitions. Even as a long-tenured nurse, I felt completely unprepared trying to navigate my own elders' care. I first met William when I needed guidance during my father's journey with Alzheimer's, and now, as we support my nonagenarian in-laws, he continues to be an invaluable resource. William has an exceptional network of high-quality referrals -- from durable medical equipment and in-home medical providers to a wide range of care facilities -- and he knows exactly how and when to connect you with the right help. More importantly, he helps you understand the process and makes an overwhelming situation feel manageable. I'm beyond grateful to have his expertise and steady guidance through what can truly feel like a rollercoaster. Any family navigating aging or memory care would be fortunate to have him in their corner.

William Young was truly God-sent. From the very beginning until my father's very last day on this…read moreearth, he guided and supported our family with incredible compassion, patience, and care. During one of the most difficult times of our lives, William was a constant source of knowledge, reassurance, and strength. He helped us navigate every step with clarity while always prioritizing my dad's dignity, comfort, and well-being. His presence alone brought peace during moments that felt overwhelming. I am forever grateful for William and the role he played in my father's care and in supporting our entire family. We could not have asked for a more devoted, kind, and trustworthy geriatric consultant. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone who needs guidance and genuine care for their loved one.

I cannot speak highly enough of Steve Wanamaker at Oasis Senior Advisors in Orange County. From the…read moremoment we connected, he was fast, efficient, and incredibly knowledgeable. What truly sets him apart is his kindness and compassion--qualities that mean everything during such an emotional and overwhelming time. He took the time to really understand our family's needs and guided me through every step of the process with warmth and professionalism. His personable nature made it easy to trust his recommendations, and his strong relationships with board and care owners ensured we had access to quality options quickly. Thanks to his expertise and dedication, we found the perfect fit for our loved one and felt supported every step of the way.

Words can't express the depth of my appreciation for Pathfinder having solved a HUGE worry that had…read moreharbored inside of me for several years: "What happens to Mother when the money runs out?" I can now breathe, I can now sleep at night, knowing my 96 year old mother is safe and happy for the rest of her life, THANKS to this incredible team. My husband and I moved to Laguna Woods from Los Angeles 11 years ago to buy a condo next door to my mother (85 then) to help her. After several years it became clear that she needed even more than we could supply to keep her safe and healthy; her advancing age was seriously compromising her mentally and physically each year into her 90's, including blindness last year. AL and Memorycare were wonderful, but eventually not affordable, and also not able to handle her serious declining healthcare needs in-house. As I sought solutions for my mom, it was my GREAT fortune to be recommended to John Menzies Clark (Pathfinder4Care) by very credible sources. He came to our house (free consultation to evaluate your individual situation and needs) and I remember that when he said he could take our case, I felt this huge weight being lifted from me. This excellent Team provided all the help and resources with the very detailed paperwork forms as well as their knowledge for the many types of senior residences as it related to my Mother's needs in every category. (I managed Internal Medicine and Nephrology offices in LA for years, yet I need their help, expertise and personal knowledge of the local Asst Living, MemoryCare, Nursing Homes, Board and Care residences which we toured with him.) At age 96 she is now settled into a wonderful skilled nursing facility a mile from me, she is happy, they are taking very good care of her, and none of this would have been possible without John, Shawn, Christy and their many years of experience and relationships. I eagerly recommend them to anybody I meet who is facing this difficult situation of "what is going to happen when ....", or other precarious situations as well. They have many fields of expertise to cover all elderly challenges for families. I share my good fortune all the time by recommending Pathfinder so that I can spare others the heavy, worrisome weight that they bear ... like I did (but not anymore - whew). Pathfinder has come through for them, too! Meeting John that day ranks right up there as one of the VERY best days of my life, and I'm grateful beyond measure. I know my mom is too!

I'm finally getting around to writing this review…read more Dwight is absolutely amazing!!! In early February we were looking for care for my dad. I called Dwight at 7:30 to leave a message. He actually picked up the phone. He talked with me for about 40 minutes, explaining all the services he offers and how it would look helping my dad (and mom). He knows his stuff! Very compassionate. Knowledgeable. Caring. There are a lot of things to consider when hiring a caregiver. Legalities. Regulations. Matching a caregiver with a client. So much more. Dwight explained it all so clearly. Big one: If you have a long-term healthcare insurance policy, make sure to check the waiting period. My mom hadn't looked at the policy in years, and sure enough there was a waiting period. His advice on activating it was on point. He met with my mom and I within a week of first talking on the phone. He re-explained to my mom all the services he offers. She was able to use him for only a week....my dad returned to the hospital. And never returned home. Dwight was so supportive. Would not hesitate to call Dwight.
