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.

Lucky Me
Dr. Zekser has been my doctor since I moved to Fort Lauderdale seven yearst ago. I come from a family of doctors, so I know the good and the bad, and Dr. Zekser is the best. I can say without hesitation that he is, in fact, the best doctor I have ever had. He empathetic and caring, knowledgeable and dedicated. Not only has he helped me with my immediate problems, but also advised me how to maintain a healthy lifestyle. I am confident that he treats all of his patients with the same care. So, yes. I enthusiastically recommend him without reservation.

While I haven't seen Dr. Zekser since he left the Holy Cross Group two or so years ago, I retain very fond and positive feelings about him and the care he extended to his patients. It was unfortunate that he was insufficiently supported by the staff assigned to him and I know how badly he felt about this. Should my current primary care physician retire, I will be sure to seek out Dr. Zekser again.

I was forced to give up my internal medicine practice of 24 years due to illness. Dr Zekser has taken over my practice, and is now my personal physician as well as the physician for my family. He is an excellent physician. Warm, talented, and well seasoned. His past patients will love the office setting and staff and I wish him years of continued excellent care of patients. I am extremely fortunate to have him as my doctor - and my past patients feel the same way.

I have been a patient of Dr. Zekser for many years during both his time at Holy Cross and now at Memorial Health. I think so highly of Dr. Zekser that when his practice moved 15 miles away, I followed him to Memorial. He is trustworthy, kind, professional and very intelligent.

He is a ok doctor, but his staff is one of the worst in the MRH network and that is why I am changing my primary doctor. I doubt he gets his messages from his staff but if he does and responds this way I get his responses, he is not a doctor for me.

The best doctor I have had, and I have moved around a lot. He takes the time to answer any and all questions, to know and understand me as a patient, and is very responsive to messages sent to his office. I cannot recommend Dr. Zekser highly enough.

I was very impressed with the staff, Shinelle (Dr. Zekser's nurse ) and Vanessa (at reception). Both attended to my needs quickly and professionally. In addition, Dr. Zekser not only explained and answered my questions, he also did not appear to be rushed while he saw me and he took the time to make sure I had all my questions answered. Without hesitation I can say that I feel very comfortable coming to this office and seeing De. Zekser.

Dr. Zekser is a phenomenal doctor. If you want a doctor that'll listen to you, take their time to address any of your medical concerns and actually take the initiative to help eliminate your health issues, then consider giving Dr. Zekser the opportunity to provide you the care that you deserve.

My wife Jacki and I were fortunate enough to be referred to Dr. Zekser through a friend since moving down to Florida from New Jersey. Both of us feel extremely comfortable talking with him. I have never felt that I was ever being rushed out of my appointment. He would talk to me and allow me time to ask any questions that I might have. We are getting older, and feel very comfortable and confident in the healthcare that Dr. Zekser provides us with !!

Office sent confirmation text to the wrong number resulting in cancelled appointment and wasted time. Could only schedule appointments over a month out. Dr was nice and spent a good amount of time with me but the follow up appointments I had were cancelled by the office as well. Overall a disappointment and left me looking for another new PCP.

I have had several visits with Dr. Zekser since moving from Ohio. I was concerned I would not be able to find a physician with whom I would be comfortable. Dr. Zekser has a great bedside manner. He is an extremely personable and caring physician. I have never felt rushed when in his office; Dr. Zekser always gives me the time to ask all the questions I have. I highly recommend him.

Went to renew my meds and was told by the pharmacy that the doctor had denied my renewal. He never notified me prior to the meds running out that I take daily to see him. I contacted his office and explained that I was leaving the country and needed it to take with me. At the same time made an appointment to meet him when I got back to the US. I tried for two days prior to leaving to have him approve on refill and He never replied or contacted back. His nurses confirmed he got my msg as well!
