After months of not being taken seriously about the pain I was feeling, this visit was very validating and I feel like we might be on the right path to successful treatment plan.
Pleasant, and friendly
Dr Zach is wondering
The availability of appointments continues to be a struggle. My initial appointment with Dr Zach was a very long time with pain and not knowing what my issue might be. But once I met with her, things were a relief. Trying to reschedule follow up was once again frustrating. But this is an operation issue, nothing to do with Dr Zach of her staff. She's terrific.
Dr. Zach is Extremely efficient with great communication skills!
Dr. Carrie Zach always very professional, caring.
I had student do my procedure. I thought Dr. Zach guided/taught him very well through the procedures. She is an excellent teacher
Getting an appointment with Dr Zach takes a while but so worth the wait! I have been going to her for years. Very competent, smart, explains everything thoroughly at my level. I always walk out very satisfied! I just wish she could be cloned, so it didn't take so long to see her!!! Above top notch!!!
Dr. Zach always very professional, caring, easy to talk too.

I have been treated by Karie before and she always provides genuine concern for your concerns and explains the issues very well. During the treatment she demonstrates concern for your comfort, welfare and understanding. I appreciate having her as my clinician. She demonstrates respect for her student as well.
Dr. Zach was excellent - thoroughly explained my diagnosis and treatment options. Would definitely recommend her to others.
I arrived early and saw the doctor early. It was great that I did not have to wait! It was also wonderful that the individual who roomed me remembered me, even though it had been months since my last appointment.
Dr. Zach is almost always on time and still somehow never seems rushed and answers all of my questions. She has a super positive energy that I appreciate so much. I have recommended her to several people because she is fantastic!
Keep up the good work.
I know my eval must look pretty boring: all #5sBut it's the truth. Dr. Zak and her staff and office system is impeccable. She never disappoints. I have been regular patient fr number of years.
They did an excellent job of describing the situation and sharing my options. Both the Dr. And Assistant were very professional.
Dr. Zach informed me of every step of the procedure and pointed out what she was doing on the ultrasound. I've had gel injections in the past and this one was close to pain free. She glad my primary doctor recommended her. Love her!
I love Dr Zach. She is absolutely amazing! Entire Team was extremely kind, helpful and compassionate.
Dr. Zach and her fellow Christian were fantastic.
Dr. Zach and her Athletic trainer were professional, informative, managed expectations. Her Athletic trainer Really showed caring and compassion. I felt hopeless and frustrated when I arrived but after my appointment with Dr. Zach I feel more hopeful and appreciate the time she took with me. Beyond grateful
Customer service at this location is outstanding! They work together as team very smoothly. This teamwork is fostered & modeled by Dr. Katie Zach.
Dr Zach is a wonderful doctor
Although I had to wait a few weeks to see Dr Zach, it's always worth the wait. She is very knowledgeable and empathetic.
Great doctor
Dr. Zach is a fantastic provider! She took time to thoroughly listen to my concerns, assess the issues, review the imaging results, and include my Input in the process of recommending a treatment plan. She is also very kind and personable!The front desk staff on level 3 at Moorland is fantastic as well! Everyone is always kind, friendly, helpful and efficient!
Dr Zak explained everything in a manner I could understand. I had concerns about the MRI she ordered for me and she did her best to ease my anxiety.
