About Castro
Castro Risk is an independent commercial insurance brokerage focused on fitness studios and healthcare businesses. We organize the account details, approach the market, and make the resulting choices easier to understand.
Studios and practices often outgrow the simple description used when they opened. An added service, a new practitioner, a rented treatment room, or a recurring off-site class can introduce a detail that belongs in the insurance review. We begin by documenting what clients actually book, who delivers it, and where it happens.
That work produces a clear submission rather than a generic business label. It also gives us a practical way to compare proposals against your services, premises, provider relationships, and contract requirements.
Our work does not stop at collecting proposals. We set out the differences in insured parties, limits, deductibles, policy dates, exclusions, endorsements, and conditions. You can see where a term responds to a stated need, where it does not, and which question remains open.
We prepare the submission, coordinate market follow-up, and explain the available options. Coverage is placed through brokerage partners.
Your San Francisco business may add a visiting practitioner without changing its address. A new venue, remote appointment, treatment, class type, or employee can still change the information that should be considered. We encourage a review before the change begins, so the business description and policy comparison remain current.
Our Insight Library covers the questions that tend to recur between renewals: claims-made continuity, lease requirements, certificates, workers’ compensation, off-site work, and proposal comparisons. It is written for owners who need to make informed business decisions without turning their policy into a second job.
Our leadership team oversees client work, commercial insurance reviews, and day-to-day operations.
