My parents moved to Berkeley Square independent living about 15 months ago from Florida. The entire move-in process was seamless - Katie Crank and the team at Berkeley were responsive and knowledgeable and even handled “remote” showings to make things easier for us. They offered us many options and solutions to their lifestyle needs. Their home is beautiful (so are the grounds - wow what a great job they do with that!) and just what they needed at this phase in their lives. 15 months later the same is true - whether it’s maintenance requests, extra help around the house for Mom, or just moral support in navigating the aging process I can honestly say we’ve made the best decision for my folks. Thank you to Katie and the whole team for being so great!

We just moved in yesterday. All of our dealings with the people of Berkeley Square have been wonderful! We already feel welcomed. I want to especially thank Katie Crank for all that she's done to ease the process of our becoming residents.

I can't thank you enough for getting my strength and mobility back. I was told that I came a long ways from when I first arrived. I was weak and out of sorts. I appreciate the staff in Rehab and also the Nurses where I stayed. Everyone was very sweet and helpful. I fell in the bathroom when I first got there and everybody rushed to get me up. I was trying to do things without help and it didn't work out. There was always entertainment to keep me busy amd I made a lot of friends here. Sincerely, Carl (Mike) Reece

Wonderful at answering questions and follow through. Everyone I’ve met in the move in process has been friendly and helpful. My new home is just what I wanted. Mr. Weber is a great choice with whom to partner!
