In my opinion, Dr. Zeigen is the best around. His explanations and his manor of doing so put me at complete ease. He has an extraordinary knowledge of all faucets of medicine which instills complete confidence instantly. He operated on both of my cataracts and actually made the procedures worry free. I have been a patient of his for several years, and after going to other doctors in his field, I know it would take a long time to find a doctor as competent as Dr. Zeigen.

I have in the past referred family and friends to Dr. Zeigen: WOULD NO LONGER RECCOMEND. I was contacted by his staff to confirm an appointment, which I did , however I was then told to bring my Insurance Card AND PROOF OF VACCINATION CARD. I told his assistant I would not be providing them any VACCINATION CARD. I WAS TOLD, "THEN DR. ZEIGEN WOULD NOT SEE ME". I cancelled the appointment with this DISCRIMINATORY PRACTICE, and so will my friends and family! Richboro Eye Care's Website did state "NOT ALLOW NON VACCINATED PATIENTS medical appointments" (This policy has since been removed from the Website, probably a recommendation of his Lawyer). By the way no one from his office has called to reschedule after his change of heart!!

I dare you to make an appointment with Dr. Zeigen! After one visit you won't go anywhere else for your eye care. I just had cataracts removed from both eyes and Dr. Ziegen was wonderful. I only wish I had discovered him sooner so he would have been the Dr that removed my mothers cataracts. She is now his patient though. You can be assured by words and actions that Dr Ziegen loves his profession. Your questions will be answered as he is extremely knowledgeable. So thankful I found him. His staff is also helpful.

If you think all eye doctors are created equal ... well you are wrong. Not only is Dr. Zeigen a great Ophthalmologist, he is a wonderful person. Warm, funny, caring, and most of all ... a fantastic physician. Gotta quote some previous reviews "you found the best ... you hit the lottery!"
