Dr. Zarini was extremely kind in her approach to shared and informed medical decision making. I get nervious with doctors (guilty of white coat syndrome), however she was extremely supportive and understanding with me. She did not make the appointment feel rushed or timed. Also the staff and location was fantastic and efficient with blood work. I was assigned Dr Zarini as a PCP, I didn’t go out of my way to pick her, but I would definitely go out of my way to pick her. Feeling lucky to be assigned to such a great care team.

Dr. Zarini seemed nice and I appreciate that she was able to order some of the labs I asked for, but I left there feeling really awkward because of the fact that I shared a lot with her that I feel might have made her feel awkward or uncomfortable… ?? Not sure, but I know I now feel uncomfortable. I know I need a doctor who takes more time to know more about me other than just the tests they can order, referrals, and the medications they can prescribe. I feel best when I can give at least some of my current life story because it’s important to my overall health picture. I feel super uncomfortable when I share and it doesn’t seem to be well-received. There were definitely things I appreciated about the visit, but the awkwardness will probably keep me from coming back.

Dr. Zani is absolutely the best I can communicate whether she answers my messages. She’s the only reason why the MyChart should exist. I can do video visits whether they talk to her on my chart get all the things fixed that I need and then she’ll also keep me in line as as far as what medication’ refills I have coming up what referrals are still outstanding she’s more than a doctor. She’s like having a wife. I probably wouldn’t be in good health if it wasn’t for her.
