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.

Intelligent and knowlegable
Dr. Zani is intelligent and knowledgeable. He explains things well and has an obvious concern for the well-being of his patients. After meeting with him, we felt enormously better about the prognosis.

Dr. Zani operated on my hernia in 2014. Just two years after coming to Duke. He told me that he placed absorbable tacks in my hernia but in actuality there were metal tacks used. I had pain in my groin for two years afterwards before another surgeon had to fix the problem.
