Dr. Light is amazing. I was pretty nervous and worried, but he not only explained everything, but did so in a manner that made me feel comfortable and as relaxed as possible given the circumstances. I would recommend Dr. Light to anyone needing complex, compassionate and extremely competent care.
July 27, 2017Ronald C.Verified patient
The doctor and staff are all very friendly. Dr. Light listened to me and spent a lot of time with me, and is very understanding. I would 100% recommend him.
May 4, 2017Bethany G.Verified patient
First: His telephone rang and he checked it instead of focusing on me. (unprofessional)
Second: He got upset with me for answering his questions while he was attempting to fill a prescription online. (unprofessional) I'm not responsible for his inability to multitask. If you want me not to talk, don't ask me a question.

Doc Robert Light was professional, curtious and knowledgeable. He has good bed side manner and is good at explaining complex things in an understandable way. He takes enough time to insure you understand & get the care needed.
March 16, 2016Eric B.Verified patient
The doctor is great. Front office staff have a hard time synchronizing zoc docs appointments with changes made in person or via phone. The result is the patient being told 2 different appt times with no way to know which is the real one without a lot of hassle. Other than that, the experience with the doc himself was fine.

I had a wonderful first visit to Dr. Light's office. His staff was friendly and worked me in with almost no wait despite a scheduling issue whereby I essentially hadn't scheduled an appointment. Dr. Light was not only personable and seemingly very knoiwledgable, but he was understanding of the sensitivity of my issue. He took time to hear and address my concerns. I will certainly continue to see him.
June 17, 2015Initials hidden
Dr. Light was very polite and personable. I was a new patient and I definitely liked that he asked questions of my condition to try to understand what was going on with me. I feel confident with his plan to check everything out to decide what course of action to take.
May 20, 2015Peggy M.Verified patient
Good visit with Dr. Light. He made the visit well worth it. The wait time was a little troublesome. I arrived at 2:15 for a 2:30 appointment and didn't get called back to the room until 3:15. An hour wait before I was called. Then I sat in the room for another 20 minutes before the doctor came in. They've got to do better with people's time.
