Of all the medical teams and doctors I've dealt with in my lifetime, Dr. Zvijac's has been the best. Dr. Zvijac is very polite, has the right amount of empathy every doctor should have, and he's very skilled at his craft. The professionalism extends into his medical team as well, everybody was very patient and respectful of my time, and always available to answer any questions I had over the phone. I would recommend this doctor to anyone.

My husband had a severely torn meniscus repaired and he was able to wal (with the help of crutches) right after surgery. Two days later, no more crutches. Dr Zvijac was very professional, he explained in detail the procedure and the surgery was smoothly. We highly recommend Dr. Zvijac.

Dr Zvijac did both my shoulder and my knee in the past 20 years. Him and Uribe are the best and Everyone that I have recommended them to gave nothing but amazing things to say about them. The only problem is trying to get through to the office and get an appointment. They never answer the phone or call back so you your best bet is to drive to their Office and get an appointment in person.

Dr. Z did a great job diagnosing my knee issue and I had a great surgical experience. I would definitely return to him if I needed additional surgery.

Does not seem interested in his patients whatsoever. My mother has been in pain for months and he does not seem to care to figure out the problem
