Never officially used their services, however one of their drivers literally almost ran myself and multiple other drivers off the road! Today at approximately 3:30pm I was headed eastbound on Redondo Ave then turned right on PCH towards the traffic circle in Long Beach. The van began behind me and swerved into the parked cars on the right shoulder almost rear ending the last car and side swiping the rest of the row. After stopping at the light, it made a quick cut to the left lane and sped ahead of me. It then continued to basically drive in the center of both lanes over the lane divider. Almost

I use Nu Care's Transportation service for my weekly Antibody Treatments at St. Joseph Cancer Prevention and Treatment Center for my Lymphoma. I have been lucky enough to get their Driver, ELIO, on more than one occasion. Elio's driving reflects his calm, smooth personality, while still speaking what needs to be said and steadily and smoothly going forward. I really appreciate this since I am a Cancer patient and get a little 'freaked' out sometimes! (sorry)
Elio goes above and beyond for Nu Care. On one trip, a bystander asked him about employment opportunities with Nu Care
