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.

Love Dr. Z.
I've been a patient of Dr. Z for almost 10 years. I've never met a doctor who takes so much time with me on each appointment. He is thorough, empathetic, and detail oriented.Furthermore, since he is a functional medicine specialist, he doesn't push drugs on me. He and I work together to determine the best course of action to take. I trust him implicitly.

Dr. Zacharias has been the only physician I have seen for a number of years. His approach is both genuinely caring and positive. His comprehensive knowledge of underlying causes of both illnesses and healing continues to provide me with all the medical support I need to feel I am in very good hands as I go through the final quarter of my life.

He is a great DR. especially for those who want to work on making themselves better rather than treat illnesses. Thinks outside the box & stresses diet / lifestyle. Spends as much time as you need and thoroughly explains everything. Would recommend to anyone who understands a pill isn't always the answer.

Never. He charged $500 for one visit and then all the tests that he conducts were another $500. And all that to know that there is nothing he could find regarding my illness and I should see him again in 3 months after eating vitamin D pills to spend another $1000. Sounds Logical to me. No thank you Dr. Zacharias. :-/

Unlike most doctors these days, Dr. Zacharias spends a lot of time with you and factors in your diet, lifestyle, stress level, etc. in determining your diagnosis and course of treatment or just suggesting ways to maintain and improve your health. I always enjoy our engaging discussions at yearly checkups and, most importantly, he is accessible beyond office hours and he really cares about the well being of his patients.
