His initial introduction to us was crass and unfriendly. In my in my years of meeting professionals, we were never greeted in such a crude manner. However he proceeded in a more caring manner.

Dr. Zawidniak is my mother’s rheumatologist. She has a complicated medical history and he is fully knowledgeable about everything that she currently has and is being treated for. He is up to the minute on her medication‘s and is very pleasant to work with. He treats my mom really well and is very patient with her and explains information to her so that she understands it. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who likes a doctor that is not just skilled but a pleasure to work with. This is true of the entire staff in his office. I would highly recommend everyone. Thank you for treating my mom so well.
