Dr. Dana Fran Zweig, MD

She would only make early morning appointments on Fridays even though I told her multiple times that I had university classes that day in Cambridge. I would have to cut class and ride an hour home that thursday only to have to book it back to school right after. She was completely oblivious to my mental health needs and I would have to spend a half hour explaining to her how they affect me. This was especially difficult since I went to her for my depression and anxiety in the First Place! She was insistently cruel to me about my weight and the only thing that prevented her from saying anything was having my mother in the room with me. I remember my second appointment with her when I told her that the medication she prescribed me was causing me to miss meals (in context I hadn't eaten a full meal in over four days cause the medication was affecting my anxiety) and in response she told me that that was great news because I had already lost five pounds in two weeks and proceeded to up… the dosage. I keep thinking back to that; That if I was a preteen who didn't know any better she could have inadvertently started an eating disorder. The last straw was when she sprung on me that she was going to do a pap swear during my exam and my immediate thought was "no-no-no anyone but her". Every time I have to go into that office I have a complete emotional breakdown resulting in me crying and begging not to go in. After my last appointment I will no longer be seeing her.

if you are ill and need an appointment relatively soon don't go here. closed on weekends, Thursday and most of Wednesday no one is ever in the office to take calls in person and the refusal to write prescriptions when needed is frustrating. attention to detail is non existent.

Thorough, smart, easy to talk to. I highly recommend her to friends.

Best MD of my 60 year life, always feel safe and cared for by her and her nurse

Overall Friendly professional home town Medical Practice. and alternative preventative care knowledge. Medical needs met.

Friendly, competent, integrative medicine, she listens well and is knowledgeable about alternative treatments.

Doctor Zweig is very competent and thorough and doesn't rush. She listens and is very empathetic.

I was a patient of Dr Z's for several years with good results and good rapport, and remained with her after I'd moved 50 miles from her office. I did switch to a local (5 minutes from my house) clinic with numerous clinicians, who have only managed to make me sick, and mismanage my care due to their scatter-shot approach. The only reason I switched from Dr Z was convenience, and I definitely want to switch back to her, which I'm hoping to do this week. I found Dr Z to be thoughtful, deliberate, and very professional.

I've had her as a primary doctor for over 3 years and I couldn't wait to switch to a different doctor. She was never friendly. Made me wait few times, taking other patients ahead of me. At times was rude. The top of the iceberg was when she asked me to see her for a follow up on a medicine she prescribed, only that she never sent the prescription to the pharmacy. She sent a blood test order after I told her I didn't want it and I wouldn't go, and somehow I got billed for it anyway. She never did anything about a referral to another doctor regarding physical and reading results on a biopsy (for possibly cancer). Very very disappointed with her services. Also, front end staff is never friendly. Last time I went to ask for my medical record I remembered why I was switching to a different primary doctor!!!

Uncaring attitude, needs to reffer to book most of the time to try to make diagnosis. Incompetent. Arrogant: likes to give unsolicited advices, does not listen to concerns. Does not explain medical condition.She only cares how to boot as many clients out of the door to get as much profit as possible. She bruised my cervix during pap smear and then office lost the pap results.
