I was under the care of Dr Zarbalian for 3 years for treatment of my autoimmune disorder. Dr Z as his patients call him is really smart and very well trained. I am a retired physician- he would often reprint medical articles for me to help me understand my disease and treatment goals. The best part of Dr Z though is his kindness. He is caring and empathetic. He never rushes you if you need more time during your visit. Dr Z is interested in the whole patient and works hard to make sure you understand your disease process. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone seeking a caring, competent physician.

I don't know why nobody's reviewed this guy yet. He --*listens* to and considers what you're saying --doesn't present his initial ideas/hypotheses as irrefutable facts --references/incorporates new research, citing various studies performed by various experts in the field, instinctively giving them credit for the findings rather than attempting to claim it for himself --He's calm/subdued, & not at all condescending. Note:Half the office staff is rude. Don't let it get to ya. He didn't hire 'em.
