Dr. Zafar is beyond excellent. I have learned more about my disease from her than anyone else. I have been her patient for over 15 years, even when I moved away from Pembroke Pines, tried another doctor closer to me, I came back. She monitors my blood counts religiously and has kept me out of the hospital for a very long time. Her staff is second to none. They are friendly and very competent. Never a problem to call in. No long hold times and no long appointment waiting times either. I am moving out of state and hope I can find a Hematologist as good as her because the commute would be much too long this time. I will miss her and the staff like crazy!!!
