10 stars for Dr. Zimmerman
I lived with chronic pain for years and ran a small construction company, getting closer to retirement but still had to go a few more years I was not in a position to forfeit the downtime of surgeries. I had seen several doctors that prescribed meds, braces and stuff and wanted to do surgery until I was sent to Dr. Zimmerman and she had the tools and knowledge and actually helped me transition into retirement so smoothly it was almost painless. I recommend Dr. Zimmerman 100%. All I can say is that if I had a tail, it’d be justa wagging!

Gentle, caring, excellent results
I see Dr Z for mainly for steroid shots in my back and knees. In over 5 years going to her, every experience has been comfortable and successful in alleviating pain. She has added additional therapies as needed. She is always gentle and caring in my appointments, and is extremely skilled. I recommend her to everyone I know who needs pain treatment.

The EmergeOrtho clinic was very busy but seemed efficient. The staff were nice but so busy as to seem harried. Dr. Zimmerman, once I was called in to see her, was AMAZING. She was kind, efficient and highly skilled. When I need another steroid injection, I’m going beck to her.
