I have been with Dr. Z for many, many years. He has always been very thorough, up to date on new medications. I have never doubted his prognosis. He takes the time to explain the good and bad. Very kind and understanding. He has my vote as a true professional and warm, caring doctor.

Ted was my personal doctor a couple of years. Then I had a cardiac arrest five years ago. Awoke from a coma to find Ted working to direct my care. I was so sick I begged to die. Ted talked to me and told me to hang on and that I was going to survive and one day soon I would live normally. Dr Zbiegien had a scream fest with my insurance insisting that I be approved for a pacemaker which my insurance didn’t want to approve. Ted was right. I had a few rough months but then fully recovered. I have been blessed that I have been able to enjoy my grandkids and life. I could not praise Ted enough.

Very professional and took the time to listen to me and look at me without staring at a laptop the whole time like most doctors today. Friendly and informative and pretty straightforward.
