OUTSTANDING. Dr. Zakarija is an EXCELLENT hematologist. Today was a rather important appointment. Dr. Zakarija & I discussed possible curative treatment. She took the time to answer all of my questions with an actual caring & empathetic bedside manner. This was MOST appreciated. Her clinical knowledge is quite deep. I have the utmost confidence in her abilities & have no reservations about recommending Dr. Zakarija to family & friends. In fact, I have been recommending her for the past several years.
