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.

2 years back recovery
A herniated disc, 20 years in the making. Unbelievable pain (yes, I will say worse than childbirth) for months. After physical therapy and MRI, I had surgery - 6 months later. 3 months into my slow healing, I had a reherniation. My surgery had failed. Dr. Zook said he would suggest surgery as soon as possible to correct. Another MRI a month later, surgery 2 months after that. The whole surgery and recovery process was very detailed and I was given every opportunity to educate myself, ask questions. Dr. Zook's office uses technology that gave me comfort going into surgery. 24 months after my initial herniation, I feel whole again. I can walk without limping and dragging my foot (my leg and foot are still numb); the nerve was damaged. I rarely take any OTC pain meds. Dr. Zook is caring and takes his time at any appointments.

Wonderful doctor
Dr. Zook was friendly and knowledgeable. He listened and took notes both before and after the examination. The X-ray technician was friendly and personable, as was all the other team members I interacted with.

Great Doc
I was impressed that he would pray with me and my wife before surgery. He was very concerned that I knew all the particulars of my surgery.

Dr. Zook provides great care
I've seen Doctor Zook since 2020, initially for stenosis and spondylosis. He performed surgery to alleviate the pain -- it was highly successful. In fact, so much so, 6 months following surgery I foolishly climbed a ladder and fell 11 feet -- crushing 3 lower vertebrae. He continues to work with me to recover from my accident. He is always optimistic about ways to alleviate pain and main mobility. He tells it like it is, but helps me understand options that continue to improve my condition. I highly recommend Dr. Zook for spinal issues.

Dr. Zook made it easy for me to understand what is going on with my neck. He listened and made sure that I understood what the next steps were to be taken. I felt very comfortable and left even though the news wasn't what I expected, I felt that Dr. Zook would make sure to take my health serious and do what is best for me.
