Default Jewelry appraisal / repair question

Hello, What jeweler would you use in the local area, including TV and as far as Ocala, to appraise and repair fine diamonds / diamond jewelry? Asking for a friend. His concern is to get accurate appraisals; and to get a report in order to avoid the stone(s) being switched in the event of a future repair being needed. He wants an AGS certified jewelry company/jeweler, and a GIA gemologist.

Here is the info he would like to get:

"A written report of the diamond’s dimensions, approximate body color, and clarity with a diagram mapping significant inclusions and external blemishes; before you deliver custody of it for ring resizing or other work. Thus, what is returned to you can be compared to what you gave to the person or firm doing the work."

Thanks in advance, Freeda
