    Dr Zucker was excellent-he had carefully reviewed my history, explained things well and answered all my questions. One of the best docs I have seen

    I found Dr Zucker to be professional, knowledgeable, and attentive throughout the office visit. He was able to pinpoint the catalyst for my liver deficiency by thoroughly scrutinizing my medical record over a period of many years. At no time did I feel rushed-rather, he gave me a full opportunity to question him and seek answers to complex matters. He is, in essence, a "doctor's doctor."

    Dr Zucker is outstanding! I cannot say enough good things about him. I was super impressed with how much work he did to prepare for our first appointment. And I was very pleased with our discussion and his approach. I felt heard and felt like he really cared about me and a successful treatment plan without pressuring me into things. His written summary was incredible - very complete and well organized and easy to understand and follow. I'm very lucky to have Dr. Zucker.

    It is near impossible to find primary care doctor. Please hire more PCPs if possible. Thank you. Otherwise, fantastic hospital.

    Dr.Zucker is a wonderful, compassionate doctor. He has perfected the art as well as the science of medicine, a rare commodity in medicine today. He treats the whole person and not just the organ system that needs help.

    Yes, when I was in the hospital for issues with my liver and he always checked in on me even though he was in the doctor that was on me, you know, covering for me, he always made sure he was following, taking care of everything I needed. And it was nice to know that he wasn't just the number, that he knew my family. And he just was very supportive. I had problems and I had a river transplant and he followed me right through the whole thing.

    Dr Zucker is great but we waited in the exam room for quite some time before he came in. Finally, the Dr arrived over an hour past my appt time. Not cool.

    Dr. Zucker and his team were friendly, efficient, very supportive of my questions and concerns, and went out of their way to get everything done as best they could in the time I was there. I immensely appreciate it. Also, I was outside when I answered this phone call. I may have pushed the wrong button in one of the early responses. All of my responses should be the best possible rating, one of them. May have been.
