Doris Gibbons

When we think of insurance, we usually don’t think about working with an agent who really cares about our long-term needs. But Doris Gibbons is an insurance agent who goes the extra mile to serve her clients. She cares for all her clients by keeping in regular contract with them so their most valuable assets are always protected, even with constant changes in their lives.

Doris, who owns the thriving Gibbons Insurance Agency in Harrison, OH, has more than 15 years helping clients with home, auto, health and life insurance. And she’s won more industry awards than we can count!

Doris’s ongoing client relationships and lifelong friendships show that she is a woman with a good heart. Because she’s so knowledgeable about insurance, she’s a great resource for answering any insurance question.
