I use this company through Veyo for medical transportation. They are by far The best service I've ever had the pleasure of using. The cars are always spotless, the drivers prompt, and the texts you get saying they are on the way or have arrived is the most convenient, efficient, and just plain brilliant system I've seen. This way you don't have to wait in the cold. Every driver I've had has not only been just polite, but personable and a joy to converse with. Or, if you prefer to read they just listen to the radio. My favorites are Kenneth and Greg Jr but everyone is great. They're safe drivers but not slowpokes. They don't have me gripping The armrests like some of the cabs I've been in. Hands down the best service. They are also caring, kind people. I don't wAnt anyone to get in trouble so I won't say a name, but on one of my trips recently I was telling my mother how the office won't let me come back for the pre surgical testing I need, or at all, unless I made a $5 payment toward a bill my insurance hasn't paid yet. I'm disabled But not yet collecting disability, nor do I get SNAP or cash assistance. I literally had 38 cents and the woman called me a liar and said I must have money for food and clothing etc. I explained I'm living with my mother and were both surviving on her disability which barely covers the rent and leaves us with very little for the month. I told her I don't eat for days until it's a necessity at which point I have to dig through people's trash to find recyclable items just to eat. I was extremely embarrassed and she made me feel like trash myself and still refused to allow me to return go the care unless I brought a certain dollar amount toward payment. So I left the office in tears, feeling like a lower form of life and not knowing what I was going to do to get the care I need. I told my mother all of this on the ride home. When we got out of the cab I told the driver thank you and to have a nice safe day and went to my door. Before I could enter they honked so I went back thinking I must have left something. They rolled down the window and held a hand out with the exact amount the office insisted I pay in order to come back. I tried not to take it, I told them it wasn't necessary, it's my problem I will figure it out but they insisted. Recognizing the kind heart of this person and realizing they wouldn't take no for an answer I took it because as they said "Everyone just needs a little help sometimes". I will make sure the money gets back to them as soon as the next disability cycle hits, because they work hard for their money. But I wanted people to hear this story to know that the people who work for this company care. They wanted to make sure I got the medical care I needed and now thanks to them I can. They are a great company with excellent drivers who really care about the people they are driving. Request them before anyone else. They are the kind of company that deserves your business. Read Less

This place is pretty convenient downtown Wtby. The material is simple, and Greg is a great teacher to learn about driving from, I passed my road test with noo mistakes. Money well spent.
