Dr. Zapata is a "Dream come true"! She greets me with a welcoming smile. We settle in. We immediately begin our conversation with my history since our last visit. Pain issues, efficacy of the medications, etc.

I feel very fortunate that I have Dr Zapata managing her portion of my care. I feel the same way me about Dr Goslinga and her group too.
