Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Very good doctor!!
Dr. Zaret was pleasant and polite. He gave me a thorough exam and recommended an MRI. I have been to several doctors over the past few years and he is the only doctor that knew what my problem was. After reviewing the report and the disc of my MRI on both hips, he recommended I make an appointment to see an orthopedic surgeon for my hips. I made an appointment and am grateful to Dr Zaret and his lovely nurse.

Good doctor derailed bu nasty incompetent staff
I have Medicare… And due to an accident in 2006 yes, 2006 Medicare has been denying paying certain providers. After four hours on the phone with both Medicare and State Farm insurance this has been rectified.This doctor was told to resubmit their bill to get paid and they forgot to resubmit itBut because they didn’t get paid initially, they refuse to give me a follow up appointment even though I told him I was in terrible pain and needed to The doctor.Yes, I lost my cool with this office staff. However, I think at some point a patient in their pain should take precedence over money.The lack of compassion of this office towards a patient was reprehensible

Great Doctor
Took my mom to him because she had tremors and thought she had Parkinson’s which is what her old primary had told her. He was fantastic with her. Very thorough and told her she doesn’t have Parkinson’s. He spent time, was patient and professional. The staff was very friendly and I’m grateful we found him.

Look for another doctor. Bad bedside manners
He is a very old school doctor and practice. Scheduling is a nightmare. No respect for people's busy schedules. Long wait time. The doctor is RUDE at its finest. Very bad bedside manners. He does not care about the patients. He should retire and shut down the practice. Don't think he is helping any patients at this point, if everyone complains about his rudeness.

This man is cruel and almost medieval in his manner and attention to patient care. He is a self absorbed, rude person and is dismissive of his patients. I only saw him once for neurological testing, but was exposed to his cruel attitude and could easily have walked out of the session, if I was not connected with pins and needles. My vocal complaint of severe pain and imminent severe cramping that was starting in one of my legs was answered with: "That's OK, I can continue." Arrogant! Rude!

AMAZING visit! I have never had any back/nerve issues, but I was experiencing nerve damage due to sports injury and sitting for long periods of time. Dr. Zaret was very respectful of my time, but more importantly truly listened and was so thorough in his examination. I left feeling very comfortable and looking forward to my continued treatment with the goal of healing. I didn't know where to go or start, but Dr. Zaret is THE ONE!!!

Dr. Zaret has been my neurologist for around 10 years now and I wouldn't switch for the world. He's caring, thorough and extremely helpful. He never fails to answer a question and he always goes above and beyond. I have had so many bad experiences with doctors in the past and Dr. Zaret is not one of the failures- he never disappoints.

Dr. Zaret probably is one of the most caring thorough doctors I've ever seen. He does not miss a detail, which ultimately provides greater assurance that whatever diagnosis and treatment plan he develops are for the patient's best interest. Moreover, his "bedside manner" while he conducts an examination is strictly professional. I would expect no less from him. Otherwise, his manner is quite engaging and personable.

I was traveling in Florida and experienced severe pain in my lower back. I was lucky enough to get an appointment with Dr. Zaret. He went out of his way to accommodate me! I was able to have some scans and received a diagnosis in a relatively short time, thanks to him. He was wonderful and I had excellent care. I am so grateful to Dr. Zaret!
