    Dr. Zaniewski is an exemplary physician on the staff at Spalding. He is thorough, listens carefully, actively listening, and provides immediate care. In addition, he provided a referral for physical therapy that was outstanding. I can't say enough about him. He deserves a bonus. If he doesn't get a bonus or raise, and that doesn't happen, you need to know there are other people paying more money for him. Thank you.
