Patient Experience Reviews
She was very easy to talk to.
Dr. Zacharias is the best!!
Doctor Zacharias was highly recommended. I am so glad I had opportunity to get an appointment with her absolutely amazing as was her PA. I wish all doctors had her demeanor in the end, compassion.
Dr. Zacharias has provided excellent care for many years helping me through my allergy/asthma flare-ups. She also has helped my "flares" lessen by managing my care with a personalized treatment plan. I recommend her often to family and friends.
Love Dr DZ
Dr Zacharias is so knowledgeable about my condition and is concerned about reducing my symptoms. She is compassionate and understanding.
Dr Zacharias is fantastic and located the cause of my problem.
I am at this office often, this is not my GP but a specialist that I see. The staff is wonderful & very accommodating, I never have a problem setting up my appointments my way. Dr. Zacharias is very personable and always gives me the time that I need, I never feel rushed or that I leave without having all of my questions asked and answered. I would recommend this provider in a heartbeat, professional & efficient all the way around!
Everyone person at this office is professional, caring, and truly interested in your overall health. I recommend them to everyone I know who needs an allergist or immunologist. Doctor Zacharias and her staff are the best people I know. Will not go anywhere else.
Everyone was very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful.
I feel that the doctor is excellent. She is caring and understanding. Her staff is very good as well. All of them are upbeat, friendly and compassionate.
Dr. Z has taken wonderful care of me. She actually explained in detail why I needed the treatment I am receiving. I have recommended her to another immune specialist to refer other patients too. She is excellent!
Dr. Zacharias is simply the best!!
She ask questions as to my health conditions and instructed me once I explained my conditions.
Everything was excellent. Thank you Dr Zacharis.
Excellent
Excellent doctor and great office staff.
I have had a chronic cough for decades. Dr. Zacharisis wlhas been the only doctor to correctly diagnose me with asthma and put me on a daily inhaler which has caused my cough to resolve. She is warm, friendly, approachable, and genuinely cares . She is truly an asset to University Hospitals.
Very good doctor
The Dr was very good and easy to communicate with.
Very positive experience.
I love Dr. Z's compassionate manner, and she really showed that she cares about me. I have autism and sensory processing disorder and Dr. Z & her nurses were excellent and patient with me. I was scared to do the scratch tests but they all helped me through it. Dr. Z even let me have Emla cream so that when they did the extra tests I wouldn't feel much. I am happy I saw her now I know everything I am allergic to.
Dr. Zacharias is an excellent physician and has done an outstanding job in trying to control my asthma. It has been a difficult 9 yrs and we are still making changes to my meds but we will get to the right combination soon. Her nursing staff is tops and her office support staff is great as well! Overall it is an example of a well run doctor's office.
Dr. Zacharias was excellent! I would highly recommend her for allergy issues. She went above and beyond to try and figure out what the causes were and why they were not resolved previously.
Dr. Z is amazing. She is the best provider I've had as an adult. She was very easy to talk to and dedicated to improving my health.
Dr. Zacharias is a very outstanding doctor. She listens and explains medical issues in detail. She genuinely cares about your well being. Hats off to you Dr. Zacharias!!!
Very positive experience
Dr. Zacharias answered all my questions and so did other staff after I left the exam room.
I've had asthma and allergies my whole life. Dr Zaharias took the time to learn my history, ask relevant questions and order appropriate testing to address previous allergic reactions impeding medical care.
Dr. Zacharias was fantastic. I was in and out of the office in 15minutes.
The provider knew I was seeking a second opinion on care. Dawn provided excellent care, support and effort. She followed up with her analysis through MyChart and provided the same outcome my main provider made.
The doctor listened to my concerns, advised and educated me. She moved forward with a plan. I was extremely pleased with her. She was professional yet personable. I've already recommended her to several people.
*** She was very friendly and helpful.
Dr. Zacharias is an excellent and caring doctor. I consider myself blessed to have such an outstanding care provider.
I had a good experience with Dr. Zacharius. She only sees me every two years to check to see if I have had any allergic reactions. She does not do an exam. We just talk. This time we had to discuss some new allergy testing I need. She covered it very well.
She always listens and cares. I can always get an appointment when I need one or call with a question and get answers.
What a wonderful experience I had at this allergists office. The doctor was so helpful and caring and truly seemed to want to listen and understand the issues I was having. I was so impressed with the level of detail and care I received, as well as how thorough the notes were I received through the my chart a few days later. I wish all of your doctors gave such thorough notes about the visit.
