Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Money Over Matter
Dr. Zink does not inform patients of their risks or pros and cons of any options available. She lets the patient determine how many times they will let her cut them open and keeps taking the money without care of the risks.Highly recommend anyone considering her to seek a second opinion. When the carotid stint surgery failed on my mother she proceeded to hand draw a picture of her operation, send my mother off to recovery care and reluctantly came back to follow up when she wasn’t recovering and they needed her to leave by 5. After three days in the ICU and five weeks later, Dr. Zink finally saw my mother for a follow up appointment, where she drew another picture for us on the back of a random piece of paper. My mother passed away seven weeks later.

TOP DR.
Wonderfull Dr. I had procedures done by Dr. Zink and she did a wonderful job. If you just follow the instructions your given after a procedure things are smooth. She addressed all my issues and was very attentive. I had some bruising that was to be expected and now they look great. Would recommend this Dr. to all my family and friends.

Worse than when you went in.
Poor. I was better left with the varicose veins that I had than being treated by her. I informed her and her office of my discomfort after the procedure and had to basically beg for an appointment. She did a stab phlebectomy and left me with horrid bruising for months! The scars are atrocious. She did this stab phlebectomy twice on my shin and apparently missed the vein both times. I have now went to a more experienced surgeon and reviewed even with him how terrible her technique and procedure is. Stay away!

Not impressed at all! I left her office more confused than when I went in there. I feel she does NOT listen or care to. I would NOT go back nor would I allow her to do surgery on me. I do NOT care if a DR has a high pedigree if they don't have human compassion they aren't a good Dr.
