I've been going to Dr. Zarzour since 2004 when my primary care physician referred me to his practice after an eye injury (my doctor still refers patients to him, 18 years later) Doctor Zarzour was thorough on my first -- incredibly attentive to all details and his examination -- and his yearly level of care for a variety of aging eye issues has stayed at the highest levels ever since. Highly recommend; especially for children who he works *so* well with!

I went to see Dr. Z for a "stye" in my eye lid. Dr. Z said it was not a stye it was skin cancer that was growing fast. We did surgery and removed the skin cancer from my eyelid before it spread to the rest of my body. Great doctor. Highly recommend.

My husband and I have been taking our children to Dr Z for many many years. Dr Z discovered my oldest had a brain tumor when she was only 18 months old. Our baby had shaking eyes (nystagmus). Dr Z ordered an MRI and found a large brain tumor. We were sent to a Cancer Doctor who told us if Dr Z did not discover this in time our baby would have died. Now the baby has grown up and we have been going to Dr Z ever since. Dr Z is kind, warm and has a great bed side manner. We would not go to any other eye specialist.
