Review for Dr. Zuk

Dr Eatman is very kind and very thorough. He genuinely wants to find solutions to your health problems. He takes the time he needs to listen to you, and to make you feel cared for. Just one of the best physicians around. And Advent is a caring place to receive care.

Review for Dr. Eatman

He listened very well. He didn’t dismiss my experience and my thoughts on my situation, rather took them into account. The only disappointing thing with Dr. Eatman was that it took seven months to get an appointment.
