Jerald Zakem

I've been with Dr. Zakem for several years and I find him to be a great doctor and very caring for his patients he takes his time with me on my visits he always is on time, Thank you Dr. Zakem

Doc and his staff were professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. He listened intently and responded accordingly answering all my questions.

I wasn't real impressed with Dr Zakem at my first visit. I felt like he was very dismissive and indifferent. My second visit was completely different. He was more interactive and seemed to listen to my concerns more. I am much more impressed with his bedside manner this time

Dr Zaken is efficient, with little yo no wait time. He listens well and asks about prescription renewals.

Dr. Zakem was very professional and knowledgeable. He was also friendly and responded quickly to my test results. I look forward to future appointments

He’s a truly professional doctor. Very knowledgeable in his field. Listens to what I have to say and act accordingly. Glad he’s on my team.

It was a video appointment, and all went very well, I've known dr. Zakem for 18yrs ,and I trust him very much. I would recommend him to anyone.

Dr. Zakem is very thorough. You never feel rushed during visits and there is always time to ask questions or get further clarification.

Dr. Zakem is AWESOME. This was my first visit as his patient. I made the appointment the same morning I visited him. He read my entire chart on "My Ochsner" before I arrived for the visit. He was extremely prepared to provide me with the best information, diagnosis, and treatment. The visit was nothing short of Beyond Excellent!! His staff, Jalynn and Rhonda were on that same level of professionalism and caring. 5 stars easily. Dr. Zakem is AWESOME. This was my first visit as his patient.

Dr. Zakema is very Professional very nice

Dr.Zekem took the time to explain everything to me where I could understand everything. I was a new patient .I was very impressed.

Yes. He took his time with asking questions. Then he sent me to the lab to get my blood tested. No results yet.

Dr. Zakem dismissed my complaint as one related to medication compliance. I had only missed one dose of my medication and his actions resulted in my having to go to the emergency room

Very informative

Palindromic rheumatism.. He knew what my problem was immediately from my described symptoms. No more pain since being on plaquinil...

I saw him a while back at the suggestion of a family member who was then his patient. Every time i drive past his then office in Tampa, I can’t help but shudder at the inordinate amount of scripts he wrote with no resulting relief.

I thought I needed 2 hip and 2 knee replacements. I could barely walk 2 blocks. Dr Zakem correctly and promptly diagnosed my problem was Osteoarthritis. Within 2 days of taking Suldenac I was back to my 2 mile walk and more. What a relief ????

I am a physician that has treated Internal medicine and rheumatology patients for 20 years. However, I saw Dr Zakem for a correct diagnosis of an autoimmune disease back many years ago. I always wondered why he was one of the worst medical experiences of my life. After all these years of having a private practice of my own I do not understand. Reading many reviews , I see he has not improved and I only read one positive review (from another physician 4/5 stars).

I saw Dr. Zakem for unknown causes for uveitis. He came in asking dozens of questions without the time to listen for the reply . He has no patience for someone who has a hard time explaining symptoms. The end result was that he gave me a muscle relaxer for back pain . He did order many lab tests which were done . But I felt so rushed and misunderstood the whole time . Maybe he was having a rough or busy day but I would have appreciated more patience.

I saw Dr Zakem today. He is very knowledgeable and professional. He speaks in a matter-of-fact tone, which I prefer, explaining why my symptoms have to be related to X and not Z. I entered his office with a list of issues and he reviewed them all. Being a healthcare professional myself, I felt that this doctor is very intelligent, caring and trustworthy. I would recommend him to anyone.

Dr. Zakem spoke to me in a very rude, unprofessional manner. I drove from out of state to see him for my long-term fibromyalgia pain, degenerative disk disease, and testing for potential autoimmune disease with a referral from my neurologist who has watched the decline in my health over the past year, to include Sjogren's symptoms and flares of joint pain and swelling and facial butterfly rash. Rx'd a med I told him I don't do well on. Yelled loudly at me for asking questions, awful experience.
