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 Doctor
It was my good fortune that Dr. Zuker was the surgeon called in for my disabled family member in an emergency situation. He was kind, sympathetic, knowledgeable and took time to note that some things needed to be said delicately to the patient. He took the time to explain everything in detail to me and also responded in minutes when family called. He is one of the most considerate doctors I’ve come across and I would trust him on every level to make medical decisions for family and all those I care about! I will be grateful always.

Excellent doctor
I recently left a review for Dr Zucker. I gave him five stars however it shows that I gave him one star. I am shocked that this happened, because he is an excellent doctor. He is very personable He's very knowledgeable. And I was so glad to have such a wonderful doctor take care of me.

He did a great job on my hernia repair. I heard a lot of rumors about him pertaining to his personality and performance. As far as personality he told me exactly what to expect didn't beat around the bush and performance wise it's been four days since the procedure and I feel fine.

this individual has no warmth or personality-treats people like objects - handshake like a dead fish- talks AT you- not to you...also talks over you when any questions are posed.....have discussed this individual with other Hepburn personell and all are of the same opinion....his persona alone is cause for doubt and his skill sets are more robotic in nature than intuitive....certainly does not think outside the box at all..... not an asset to his profession or Hepburn..enough said.

Dr Zuker seems very knowledgeable and capable. The Dr. has a very good bedside manner and is easy to talk to. As with all Doctors as busy as he is he spends limited time with his patients.
