I have been going to Dr Zaheer since May 2007 for breast cancer. He is the NICEST Dr I ever had. He takes time to hear your questions and concerns and thinks about them before he answers. He told me we would be connected at the hip forever and now 9 years later and still in remission I look forward to my 6 month appointment s with him. Bless you Dr. Zaheerð???

The office is overcrowded and the wait times are extremely long, with little consideration given for the state of the patient (especially those undergoing grueling chemotherapy regimens). The doctor is extremely knowledgeable but spends very little time with patients- is always rushed. Most communication is done through a PA, also extremely knowledgeable, but listening to the patient and addressing dangerous side effects where there is no easy answer is not a priority. Also, addressing end of life issues and palliative care is resisted at every turn, even when the patient is clearly dying and the battle should be over.

Dr Zaheer has looked after me since 2003 and has helped me through some significant challenges. He is a wonderful person and doctor - very thorough and kind and I will miss him terribly as I have moved out of state and need to find a new oncologist.
