I love Dr Zell and have had four family members become patients of hers. There would have been more but she isn't taking new patients at this time. She is easy to talk to and genuinely cares about me I feel.

Dr. Zell is a wonderful physician! She really listens, looks you in the eye (instead of the computer). I felt that she heard my concerns, took them seriously, and truly made me a partner in making health care decisions instead of just telling me what to do. I feel fortunate to have a compassionate, caring, competent physician in Dr. Zell.
