Dr. Daniel Robert Zanotti, MD

You might be better off resurrecting Josef Mengele and seeing him instead.

Zanotti is a personable, down to earth doctor, but that's where the good ends. Z did not make responsible choices with regard to my health and I'm now paying the price. Misdiagnosed and downplayed my pain for months and as a result I later developed a life-changing condition diagnosed in the ER. Z went into lock-down mode and gave as little advice as possible (would not be surprised if there was a malpractice lawsuit in the past). I was told an extremely exaggerated version of my situation -- that my condition could very soon be fatal (i.e. "their previous client with this condition died in less than 2 weeks") and ultimately given the most inane advice imaginable ("drink half a coffee-- not a full one" is my favorite Z-ism). Totally incompetent; offers no advice of his own -- asks you what you think you should do and reflects it back at you; you are your own doctor. Due to the "shock therapy" approach (lying) of Z, my health actually regressed for several months. No walking, no… gym, no anything. Mental state totally shot. Still picking up the pieces almost half a year later. All other doctors at Sharp were flat out stunned regarding what I was been told and how I was treated. Doctor performed little to no research about my condition despite claiming previous client's death was a motivating factor for him. Clearly, it was not. I had to perform all of my own "research" into my condition with practically zero input from Z despite asking frequently what to do. Worse, Z frequently misread or skewed reports made by other doctors or specialists at Sharp, always painting them as doom and gloom. Thankfully, I had access to their reports and was able to get several actual informed opinions with plans of action (I would like to add that the other clinicians at Sharp have been excellent across the board) Z is irresponsible, uninformed and careless. AVOID. Now I have to deal with a life-altering condition on a daily basis. I'm thankful every day that the stars aligned and another doctor friend of mine tipped me off on the real problem -- I would be six feet under had I stayed with Z's "recommendations." Count your blessings! Considering checking into a lawyer; on a positive note, I have since switched to UCSD Healthcare and it's been great so far!

Mountain Health Community Medical Clinic in Escondido. The doctors were great and the location is perfectly convenient! It's close to everything and their parking lot is spacious. The doctor was attentive and wonderful. I would come here again. The only thing that i didnt like was that the front desk workers, they were unpleasant. As soon as the doctors replace the unhappy front employees, this place would be the absolute perfect medical clinic to go to. Keep up the great work guys and thanks for being in the neighborhood!

this doctor had no idea what was going on with me, he did not care enough 2 research my condition,didnt seem 2 care that i was in constant pain, only wanted me 2 take tylenol, and was in a rush 2 get me in and out... glad hes gone somewhere else
