Patient Rating
Legacy wants every patient to have great care, every time. To help measure and improve patient satisfaction, we send surveys to randomly selected patients after their appointments. We use this feedback from the surveys to improve and enhance the care we offer. It works like this: Real patients give us feedback through Press Ganey, a patient satisfaction survey company. They verify and confirm the results. National Research Corporation, an independent company, provides the technology to show the ratings and comments on our website

Both Dr Zinser and his medical assistant, Cindy give me Superior care. I do recommend this clinic to friends and family. From the front desk to having my blood drawn, including my visit, I've never experienced such wonderful clinic efficiency. They all deserve an outstanding kudos from Legacy administration.

Dr.Z may run late but that is because he is taking time to listen and treat all of your needs. I never feel rushed no matter how many things I bring up. Thank you for always listing to my needs and explaining everything clearly. I always feel that all my options for treatment have been clearly explained to me so I can make the best decision for my care and also know my doctor agrees with the plan we made together! My MA is always kind and listens, calls are returned the same day and paperwork is never lost or not done in a timely manner. They are an amazing team!

Dr. Zinser & staff are excellent.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Dr.Zinser and his nurse Cindy are by far the best medical providers I have ever seen. They take their time to explain what I need to know. I feel they truly care about me as a person. Whereas most physicians I've been to just treat me as a number and want to rush through he appointment , get me out of their hair . I'll be moving soon to another state and I worry that whoever becomes my physician won't come close to Dr. Zinser and Cindy. So you can see how much I appreciate these two providers.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.

Dr. Zinser always treats me like I am the only patient that he has. Answers my questions fully.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Dr. Zinser is my wife's and my GP currently and for the past several years. In both of our opinions, Dr. Z is the best GP we have had during our lifetimes, no exaggeration. He listens intently and provides clear information and guidance on options available. In this particular visit, and as an acknowledgement to the current COVID epidemic, he listed future testing options in terms of; lowest risk, highest safety, and lowest cost - I greatly appreciated that advise.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.

He always listens to my explination of the issue and then asks probing questions to get more details. He also makes sure i know my options. At this visit the team worked to make an appointment and get insurance approval for a CT Scan before i even left the office and headed straight there. Awsome!

This was a "meet and greet" appointment with this provider. I was very impressed with the doctor and now he is my primary care doctor. Referred by my brother.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
pretty sure all my immediate family members go to the Firwood clinic, except one that has different insurance.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
I think my doctor and nurse are the best. I feel luck to have found them amd I think the front office doesn't call about test results because of how great the MyHealth app works for me. I always bore results there the second they're available.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
My experience was good but many of my friends and colleagues have specific needs and concerns- say they have young children or are elders with specific issues that a different physician would be the best match. Dr. Zinser is good for ME but not the best fit for everybody- nobody is.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
when I was trying to make an appointment with my provider and I was telling her how important it is I see him she kept trying to have me see some one else I said no
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Dr. Zinser made me feel respected and listened to. He did not make me feel silly or dramatic with any of the questions I had. I appreciated the way he explained everything to me in detail so I can make informed choices, and understand why we are doing the tests he ordered.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Dr. Zinser is the best I've had at Legacy over many years. I've had two other drs. He changed my medicines that improved my breathing a 100% to me he listen and cared about me I wished I had him years ago.

Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Immediate concerns were addressed. Follow-up concerns (sent via message in iPhone app) are pending the doctor's return to the office [date removed]. Personally, I need to schedule some follow-up tests after the new year, and I'm certain they'll be handled equally as professionally as my past visits.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Ive always experienced a quality visit at this facility... I like Dr Zinser The only experience ive had that that is on the negative is that Dr Zinser is very busy and sometimes long waits for an appointment.

Dr. Zinser, his MA Cindy and Stephanie the phlebotomist all gave me excellent care! Stephanie drew my labs, then Cindy was able to test my A1C without poking my finger. The staff who care, for me are EXCEPTIONAL! They deserve a raise $ and commendated for their professionalism & care!

Superb service's
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Everything went smoothly.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
It seems "holistic" healthcare is no more. Not to pick on my provider, but I always feel limited to just focus on one maybe two issues, when I have many more concerns. It also seems like if one doesn't fall into a particular category of expected symptoms & results, or follow a course of the majority, that the concern is just ignored. "If its not easy, don't bother" is the feeling I get from healthcare today. No specificity, which is what I really want from my primary care provider.

Mom loves Dr. Zinser and Cindy.

Dr. Zinser was very personable and friendly. He is approachable and a good listener that gave appropriate feed back to my questions and concerns. I did forget to ask about getting a flu vaccine but that was my mistake not his.

Every time we have an appointment with Dr. Z we look forward to it because we know that he will be up to date with our information and our needs. He truly cares about us both as fellow people and as patients. He is well read and current with new medical information. My wife and I both think you probably ought to pay him more.

outstanding customer service
Provider was very nice and listened but the specimen collection could have been a self swab and was unnecessary for the Provider to do with the method he did (didn't use a speculum). Self swab should be an option given to ALL female patients when feasible.
