Seems very compotent

He was very caring . He took excellent care of me

I developed problems healing in my Moh’s surgical wound on my face. I tried to get an appointment with Dr. Zakhem or a partner but none were available for over two weeks due to holiday vacations. There were no physicians or intermediate providers in the entire SSM-Dean system that I could see in Dermatology for over two weeks even though I felt I had a post surgery complication that required urgent attention. I was directed to Urgent Care or the ER. I found this lack of backup for Dermatology extremely frustrating and rather inexcusable. Ultimately I was given the appointment to see DrZakhem on 1/8/26, nearly three weeks after I sought attention to my problem. I have been a Dean clinic patient for 35 years and this is the most frustrated I have been with the Dean system. My provider is an extremely good surgeon, but his lack of availability in follow up of his operation and no one else in the department available either for nearly three weeks is a problem that needs to be corrected immediately.

He is very caring and kind he explained everything to me.

Excellent provider

Efficient and knowledgeable.

Would ask for him again if I needed this type of surgery again.

I felt as though I could be myself

Great provider

He is so easy to talk to , answers questions, shows the care needed to heal wound beds...a pleasure to work with in patient care

Dr Zakhem takes obvious pride and satisfaction in his work, works quickly without being rushed, and didn't answer questions with one hand on the doorknob.

Very easy to talk to. Knows his stuff

Very friendly and professional.

I was in great hands with this extremely capable doctor!

He was very knowledgeable and explained what he was doing as far as the procedure goes to me in ways in which I could readily understand

Too overbooked and let me wait a very long time

He answers all of your questions and explains well. Professional and Experienced

Considering his providing care to numerous surgical patients in the same day, his dealing with me as an individual was very satisfactory.
