Is it better to buy health insurance through an agent or directly from the company in Thailand?

Question

For health insurance is it better to go through an agent or straight to the company? My real estate agent that found my condo here in Bangkok also does health insurance so I was thinking about using her, but after reading some posts here it seems like that might not be a good idea?

What company do you have and are you happy with them? I'm thinking about going to the AIA office in Bang Rak for a quote.

Thanks!
