Reviews
"Great experience. The staff is efficient and friendly. The nurses are caring and knowledgeable, and Dr Zaheer explained everything well and discussed my meds, lab results, procedures and concerns. I would recommend this office to anyone."
"Doctor Zaheer is a wonderful caring doctor, As a patient of his, he takes very good care of me, especially when I really need him,"
"This doctor and staff does not call their patients back they do not follow up and they overbook his schedule sometimes making people wait two hours to be seen and will never apologize for making them wait"
"It was the worst experience I've ever had. Battling cancer is tough enough without adding the fact that your doctor doesn't know anything about you and makes you feel like just another number. He had no clue who I was and everytime I had a problem I never spoke with Dr. Zaheer it was always through the APRN Erin. She had me on medicine that he didn't even know about. It was awful. It took her 4 days to re-fill my prescription and it was because she didn't want to call the extension I gave her, she wanted a direct number, even though the pharmacy didn't have one. They were so rushed at the Old Saybrook location that I wasn't even given a room to speak to the doctor, he would just talk to me in the open while I was getting my port accessed. I heard him asking the nurses what was taking my medicine so long to finish and giving an attitude about it because on Wednesdays is their half day at that location. If I were to do it again I would have never switched and stayed up in New Haven and gone with a doctor that was personable, compassionate and had some bed side manner. When you're doctor comes in and doesn't even know what treatment you're on, doesn't make you feel like he cares."
"Invasive Ductal Carcinoma is pretty scary. I was diagnosed 1 year ago & I've been seeing Dr. Zaheer & his staff regularly. They are informed & compassionate. His nurse Christa is caring & patient. They run behind on appointments sometimes, but it's because they spend whatever time they need at each appointment - never rushing you & always explaining what you may need clarified. I will be completing treatment (and knock on wood only seeing them only for check ups soon) - I would highly recommend Dr. Zaheer & his staff for anyone who wants excellent care. Valentina D."
