Excellent

Dr. Ziglar has been my rheumatologist for several years. She listens to my concerns and answers all of my questions. Dr. Ziglar takes my suggestions about my care seriously and works with me on my health. It is hard to find a doctor who sincerely listens to you and doesn't talk to you as if you sat next to them in med school.

Great doctor

Dr Kumar and her Physicians Assistant, Madison were outstanding. It was my first visit and the assessment, exam, and overall visit was extremely thorough and thoughtful. As a person of color, images of POC were provided as a baseline for what specific disorders would look like for me and I appreciated that. As a new patient, the first visit took about 2 months to be seen, but it was worth it, so please be patient if you can. Thank you Dr. Kumar and PA Madison.
