I had cataract surgery a month ago; and the result was clear, unclouded 20/20 vision. It was like a light was turned on! Chris and his staff are exceptional, attentive, caring and genuine in their treatment. He is open, friendly, direct, and an expert in his work. The best. He is your guy if you have any ophthalmic issues; don't hesitate-Dr. Z is the man!

I recently had cataract surgery on both eyes and was concerned because i had never had any type of eye surgery before. DR. Zieker came highly recommended and after being in his care i can see why. He and his entire staff both at Wilton and the surgery center in Latham made this situation a comfortable experience. From beginning to end the professionalism and the great care everyone afforded me was fantastic. I would HIGHLY recommend DR. Zieker to anyone who needs similar treatment. Hal Bain

I used to go to a large practice with crazy wait times. After sitting for 4 hours wtg for the doctor recently i decided to switch to Dr Chris. They got me in right away and I had no wait time upon arrival. The whole staff was so nice. The office is realy clean and updated too. I felt listened to and not talked down to. I wasn't rushed out after only 5 minutes of time with the doctor. This was a great experience for me! You won't be disappointed!
