“Dr. Zacca was very relatable and she explained everything to me throughout the procedure. She considered my concern and shared best solutions. This is my second in grown toenail procedure but this one was one hundred times better. Dr. Zacca connected well with me. That makes the world of difference. ”

I made an appointment for my husband issues with his feet. The doctor was knowledgable of what my husband needed to take care of this matter. She explained to him what the problem is and she listened to what our concerns were.

Received a message from her office morning of day of appointment. Said she wouldn’t be available due to her absence from office.
June 8, 2024William M.Verified patient
What a pleasant doctor. She explained everything very well. She was good about addressing the pain and coming up with an immediate ready that didn’t include a medication. Gave me a referral for better supporting shoes. Explained how important it was for me to do the exercises she gave me for the pain.
April 15, 2024Kenya C.Verified patient
Friendly staff. My only issue is that it was they don’t answer the phones, very hot, and my bandage came off by the time I left. I just rewrapped it.
April 14, 2024Jameka A.Verified patient
Highly recommend if you need in depth support on getting back to work or sports. She is highly knowledgeable and sees beyond what is present. Worth the drive, cost, and time to make an appointment and let her look at your concerns. She was clear and not pushy on what to select and left to us to decide. With a great explanation on what each choice would mean for us.
January 23, 2024Lacey L.Verified patient
Highly recommend her!!!
January 6, 2024Margarita V.Verified patient
Dr was direct.
No nonsense.
Parking in med center is a nightmare and thus you need to get there early
Lot of walking to reach the office.
But doctor was very good. assistant/nurse was not overly friendly but was efficient
I will continue to see the doctor
Wish she wasn’t a specialist. So impressed that she offices with her dad. May try to get on his schedule— he’s a cardiologist.
November 15, 2023michael T.Verified patient
Dr. Zacca is direct but kind. I felt genuinely cared for and couldn’t be happier to have had such a pleasant experience for an unfortunate result (broken ankle). Highly recommend her and her assistant, Madeline.
September 20, 2023Carolina A.Verified patient
I have had multiple visits to Doctor Zacca concerning ankle problems and
have always been treated with courtesy and kindness by all involved.
Doctor Zacca is really good at listening in detail to the problem from my perspective and then asking the appropriate questions that drill down to possible causes and cures. She takes time and does not rush to get to the next patient as is so often the case with other doctors I have seen.
I highly recommend Doctor Zacca for foot and ankle problems.

Dr. Zacca was absolutely outstanding. It was my first time seeing her and she made me feel like a patient and not a number. Bedside manner was excellent and she was friendly and personable. She took the time to listen to my concerns around my plantar fasciitis, lay out some treatment options and exercises I could do and did a great job of making me feel cared for. Would be back again even though it's far from me!
