Patient Reviews
Aug 05, 2022
Oh my gosh. Dr. Zakem was the best. The whole staff at CHC of WM was absolutely the BEST. Everyone was so friendly and Dr. Zakem took his time with us and did a thorough examination on my husband. That is a first in a very long time. He even called us himself the day of the blood tests and office visit to explain what was going on and what to do going forward. He immediately sent his notes to our other 2 physicians to update them. We truly recommend Dr. Zakem. We were so surprised to get such great service from him and the whole staff. Thank you so very much CHC. We were truly stunned by the best appointment ever.
