I have been a patient of Doctor Zito's for approximately 25 years. During that period, I have at times lived out-of-state and have visited other doctors at premier hospitals with top notch credentials, but I can honestly tell you that none of those doctors could hold a candle to Doctor Zito. I can practically guarantee that Doctor Zito is the most thorough and responsive doctor you will ever see. Don't be fooled by his modest office space, Doctor Zito is an excellent physician and extremely responsive.

I have been a patient of Dr. Zito's for many years (24). I travel over 50+ miles to see him because he is that good. He is thorough, doesn't talk down to you, will listen and if you abide by his instructions, you will be great. Never had a problem getting a same day appointment, he makes convenient referrals and is great with his follow-up.

This doctor is excellent. Scheduling appointments is easy, wait time minimal. The checkup he gives is comprehensive, and results are phoned through usually within 24 hours. He is ready to refer the patient to specialists at the Falkner Hospital as circumstances require. His personal manner is courteous and good-natured, non-dictatorial but solicitous. I would always follow his advice. I have been his patient for about eight years, and have never been less than very well cared for.

Dr. Zito has been my PCP since 1993. The way he follows up with his patients and explains things in a way that they can understand is the best I have ever seen, bar none. I once had an emergency and he met me at Faulkner Hospital at 1AM after he found out I was brought there. I am always able to get an appointment and never feel like I am being rushed. I can count on a phone call 24-48 hours after a physical with the results of my blood work, even at 8 or 9 o'clock at night. Dr. Zito is a doctor who truly works hard for his patients and I hope I never have to find another PCP because there will never be a replacement.

No bedside manner whatsoever in my opinion. Isn't interested in the patient's opinion on matters.
