Like all companies, we believe the services we provide are awesome and our clients love us. Although we are a small company and growing every day, don't believe what we say, believe what our clients say.

Kelvin Dawson

“I love Lee Julia helping me lots. Fast to get what I need. Old provider too slow I wait too long, still waiting for new powered wheelchair. I love DAF better.”

Karen Dawson

It is with much appreciation that I write this review for Lee and Julia. Since Lee started providing support coordination, my brother, Kelvin's level of support and services has been outstanding. Kelvin decided to join MyDAF and asked Julia to return to the company to continue supporting him. Lee and Julia are knowledgeable, passionate, caring, and committed to providing the best support to Kelvin. It has taken the worry away for myself and our elderly parents. Thank you both.
