Dr. Zakireh is really amazing. She has the perfect energy to help you feel calm. She talks to you like a human, takes the time to answer every question thoroughly, and never leaves you feeling uninformed or unimportant.

In the face of breast cancer, this provider was excellent in all ways and helping both explain and create a plan for care.

This is my first experience with this facility and the staff, and as sad as the reason of these visits, I have good faith in their abilities, and knowledge in medicine that I am in great hands, that this experience will be good.

Dr. Zakerih was completely, and compassionately, focused on my health issues. She does not talk in absolutes and guarantees, but was reassuring and able to answer all my concerns. She has been a wonderful doctor to have during this difficult time.

Very nice doctor and great info on half my concern. The other half (hormone issues) wasn't as good but is due to fact that she doesn't do HRT...but she did get me referred to a correct doctor for that issue. So, all good!

This doctor and her assistant were fantastic! They called me to check in on me a couple days after my visit and they were both so nice and personable! I wish that she was my regular doctor!!
