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.

Excellent Physician

Dr. Zekan has done many in office surgeries for me over many years. He always makes me feel relaxed as he does the surgeries by talking to me. He is the BEST! I hope he never retires....I know, I’m selfish.??

My experience with Dr. Zekan, is that he is excellent. No other doctor could help me in over 30 years. However, he was able to listen well and begin to guide me down the right road. Every time I had another health issue, he listened, and was able to address the issue, bringing me back to health again. He believed what I told him, where so many doctors just think your crazy, Dr. Zekan never did that. He always listened, watched, ask questions, gave me plenty of time, and was able to tell me what was going on. I would not trade him for anyone. He simply is the best! Best attitude, best heart, best surgeon, best doctor, best of all I have ever met. Sharp, and highly educated! --Vicky

I’ve been a patient of his for a few years, and he’s the best!! He has helped me a few times with medical conditions and my mother in law had an emergency colostomy and the er doctor she had told us and her it would more then likely be able to be reversed, well months and months after and doctors after doctors that just blew her off every time and told her it couldn’t be done! I got her to go to Zekan, he was honest from the her go, but he told her he’d go in there and see what he could do but no garantees, about 5 hours later he came out to tell us that HE DID IT!! I have a lot of respect for him, he’s one of the best!!

Highly recommend him with NO hesitation. I worked in the same hospital as him for many years and know him to be a skilled, knowledgeable, and compassionate physician who has a real love for his patients and what he does. He always treats everyone with respect and is never rushed when explaining things. When I ended up in the ER with appendicitis I was BLESSED that he was the on call surgeon and got to experience him as a patient. If you need surgery or endoscopy go to this man. You will NOT be disappointed!

Dr Zekan has an EXCELLENT personality and makes you forget you even had surgery. He was my son's surgeon 33 yrs ago and my surgeon 13 yrs ago as well as again my surgeon this week. He definitely knows what he's doing and makes having surgery a piece of cake! Keep up the great work Doc!
