Hello Dr. Tsion I…read morehonestly do not know why I waited this long to properly express my deepest appreciation to you and your entire team. From the very beginning of this journey you and your staff have shown me a level of kindness compassion humanity and professionalism that I will never forget. To be honest it never feels like I am walking into a medical office surrounded by staff members doing their jobs. Instead it feels like I am being welcomed by a close and caring family. The warmth patience and genuine care that each one of you shows creates an environment that brings comfort even during painful and vulnerable moments. I truly want you to know how grateful I am for everything you have done for me. So far I am very happy with my recovery and overall experience. Even the pain has been mostly manageable and hearing from Lydia that my recovery is progressing beautifully made me feel incredibly relieved and thankful. Please let her know how much I appreciate her kindness and support as well. What touched my heart the most is the way you treated me not simply as another patient but as a human being deserving of care dignity reassurance and compassion. In moments when people feel physically and emotionally vulnerable kindness becomes unforgettable and that is exactly what your team gave me. You all made me feel safe cared for respected and genuinely valued. I truly mean this from my heart when I say that you have become like family to me. One day when I am fully recovered I am planning to come back with kitfo and kocho to celebrate and thank everyone properly. That thought genuinely makes me happy because I already feel such a meaningful connection with all of you. And I also want to say this with a smile I promised before that it was not the medication talking and I still mean every single word. My gratitude is sincere heartfelt and lasting. I absolutely plan to keep in touch because people like you are rare and the kindness you give leaves a permanent mark on people's lives. Thank you again Dr. Tsion Lydia and the entire team for your extraordinary care your humanity and the love you show through your work every day. May God continue to bless all of you your families your careers and the lives you touch so beautifully. With heartfelt gratitude and appreciation Yodit

Pro: The staff is amazing and extremely helpful Con: Dr. Leonard is amazing just ask him well you can see all of his accomplishments in the waiting room but as far as seeing him you get the conveyor belt experience. I had to go back 3 times in pain before he gave me antibiotics then i was told if i had anymore pain i needed to go to a ENT. Good thing i did because something Dr. Leonard did caused me to get a sever sinus infection and i had to go in for a Sinus Surgery. So thanks to Dr. Lonard i didnt only have one surgery but two. I hated dentist's before and this def didnt help. If you want a doctor that actually treats you go somewhere else.

My wife's gall bladder surgery with Dr. Paul went great. No overnight stay, no real pain, nothing…read more But a week after, she started developing serious symptoms, which Dr. Paul took very seriously; he acted fast to find out what was wrong. At first, I was quick to blame the surgery, but more detailed investigation showed that the gallbladder problems were just the tip of the iceberg and the fist thing to "act up" in a very complex situation. Not only did Dr. Paul do a great job (as confirmed by other surgeons and his reputation); he still checks on my wife, even three years later. That's more than the mark of a good doctor; that's a good person. I'd highly recommend him, both for his skill and his compassion.

I suffer from Meibomian gland dysfunction. The ophthalmologists I saw diagnosed it as resulting…read morefrom the many years of my lagophthalmos that permitted my meibomian glands to atrophy. After I saw an oculoplastic surgeon who performed several unsuccessful surgeries to treat my lagophthalmos, I decided to find someone who would approach my condition with a different strategy. I extensively researched oculoplastic surgeons practicing in the Maryland, DC, and Virginia area. My research led me to Dr. Zatezalo. From my first consultation with Dr. Zatezalo, I knew he was the surgeon for me. He is kind, smart, and compassionate along with experienced, talented, and creative in surgical procedures. He clearly explained to me that I needed full thickness skin grafts (FTSG) to functionally improve the operation of my eyelids. I had read about eyelid skin grafts from various Internet websites that described it as a last resort because of its complexity and routinely poor cosmetic outcome. Recovery may take up to a year or more before the grafts blend into the rest of your face and even then, they are usually a different texture and slightly off color. Dr. Z exerted no pressure on me to have the procedure. Deep down inside I knew I needed it. I had to do something as I could not go on living the way I was, and yet, I was afraid of what I would look like after a FTSG on my lower eyelids. I was using eyedrops nonstop during the day, and at night I would awaken every few hours in pain from the dryness and had to instill dry eye ointment. I wore sunglasses indoors because my eyes barely tolerated room lights or being out in the sunlight. I was miserable and my quality of life had gotten so poor, I did not want to leave my home. Dr. Zatezalo was very patient with me and again very honest. I had read many of his patient reviews of how he gave back his patients' lives through corrective surgery. I decided to move forward with full thickness skin grafts as Dr. Zatezalo recommended. In my case, it took approximately six months before the grafts started to blend in well with the surrounding skin and not be noticeable. My level of comfort improved immediately after the surgery as I now had more skin in my lower eyelids to help my eyes close completely. I no longer needed to use eyedrops and ointment like before. I was also able to tolerate artificial and natural light without sunglasses. I had the FTSG surgery in 2018. Today, people don't know I had it unless I point it out to them. The Zatezalo Group is located in a beautiful and modern office with easy parking access. Amelia and Kimmy, Dr. Zatezalo's staff, are super friendly, efficient, and helpful. I highly recommend Dr. Zatezalo to anyone who needs functional repair or desires cosmetic enhancement of their eyes. Thanks to him, the quality of my life has improved greatly. He really is a remarkable doctor and person.

I had a wonderful experience at the Center for Brain and Spine…read more I'm glad that my primary physician referred me to this Center because I thought Dr. Amini was very knowledgeable and super professional. Unfortunately, my experiences with many physicians/specialists in the past have not been all that great because I got the sense that they were trying to rush me through the appointment. However, Dr. Amini took his time to read my medical records and listen to me while I discussed my symptoms. Unlike a few other specialists, he actually let me finish my thoughts before cutting me off with an answer. Also, he provided wonderful (maybe wonderful is the wrong word) about my lower back issues.

Holy Cross Hospital-- For Rich or Healthy!! The Good and the Bad, of my experience…read more First off, my pre-op team, surgical team and post operation teams were top-notch. Very helpful, knowledgeable, very professional, very kind and all around very courteous and lovely people. I enjoyed being careful by this hospital. It's a beautiful hospital that (I NEVER visited before in my life) pay attention this will come up later. Now, this experience did not start off very well. About 2-3 days before my surgery, I was notified by hospital billing of the full total before my procedure, I started making payments. I broke it up in 4 payments. Great, wonderful, I can afford my surgery after insurance does their part. This part was not so bad, it was a shocker but NOT BAD, new experience but it alright. Upon arrival at the hospital, I was directed to hospital admission. I was greeted by a happy and pleasant gentleman named, Juan. He was kind and wonderful way to start my visit/procedure. I was given a number to wait to continue the check in process. I was called to the Billing Section located in admissions, I sat down and they started to grill me. Apparently, the billing department does not properly annotate their records to show the accounts. I was asked about paying for my surgery, I stated I just made a payment a few days ago and that I'd make more payments at a later date. The gentleman at billing proceeded to argue with me that it was from a previous outstanding balance. I told him that was not possible, I'd NEVER been to this hospital. He then proceeded to argue with me further, that I had to make a payment, I told him I had no more to give as I just made a sizable portion towards the bill. NOW, this was NO WAY to be in a relaxed mood and calm manner before a surgery. This was wholly unnecessary, unpleasant and NOT a good way to treat a patient and customer. This surgery netted them a good amount of money, $11,000 between my payments and the insurance company. The question is will I EVER want to have another surgery here, if dealing with the billing department in-person felt like a mugging, a straight argumentative, stressful robbery. I'm alright with paying what I owe, I'm not alright with being treated like a criminal. So yes, once I clearly Billing, all was well but to get the surgery, that was like a reality television show, "Who Want to Feel Like a Criminal?'" They probably should keep better records and train the billing people better to be less combative, respectful and mindful that they work in a service industry.
