Dr. Adel Zakari is good person and wonderful pain management doctor.

I am leaving a meeting review since I am not able to go in and edit my previous review. It seems Dr. Zakari’s office staff are doing much better now. My precious review had nothing to do with Dr Zakari’s care. He is an excellent doctor and always resolves issues with my back. I highly recommend Dr. Zakari.

Great care timely and efficient takes care of my lower back issues

Dr Zakari Do not go to him. His office is a junk yard and he and his staff are very unprofessional. my 85 year old father had a 11am appt. at 1215 I asked the receptionist, that doubles as an assistant, how much longer. She said we were next. She then moved 3 patients ahead of my dad. And there was still another person waiting that was there before us. the receptionist then went missing for 45 minutes. after being there for nearly 2 hours, I went back to where they were and asked how much longer. The supposed Dr. said he didn't know. I told him the sign in the waiting room said we would be treated with dignity, respect and on time. We received none of this. all he said was that I wasn't allowed back there. so we left and made an appointment with another Dr. and the receptionist at this new drs office told me that Dr. Zakari had to close down and reopen under another name.

I have been suffering with extreme pain for approximately ten years. I met Dr. Zakari through a mutual friend in 2018. He is the first Doctor to help not only control my pain, but almost eliminate it. I am 47 years old and with his help I am regaining my quality of life back.

Rude complete idiot don't waste your time.

One of the best pain management Dr, EVER... Thank so much for relieving my pain after 30 yrs,

Dr. Zarkari is an excellent doctor! Takes times to listen to you. His staff is awesome. Thank you

One of the best Doctor's I've ever seen, other than the reason I'm here so glad I met this true man of integrity. As for the review saying he is rude, that is the furthest thing from the truth. The one star review was probably a drug seeker, no way he was rude to someone.

I don’t know a doctor who is so attentive to his patients. When Dr. Zakari was at Mercy, he told me that he very seldom takes people off work because it is important to stay active but he took me off work and helped me to get disability. I was so happy to find that he had opened his own practice. Everyone on his staff is caring and kind. I had a concern about a medication and he personally called me tonight at 7:30 to discuss my concern. What doctor cares enough to do that?!?!?! He’s concerned and honest , says what needs to be said, and great at what he does. I recommend him to everyone I know. Thank you Dr. Zakari and staff. I appreciate you more than you know.

I can't say enough good things about this physician. He is thorough, determined and has a love for his patients. I say this in spite of no help in my case thus far. He has made sound decisions. We are in the throes of my last attempt for improvement via needling. He has assembled a super staff that reflects a cohesion with his aura and work ethic. The operation runs smoothly and harmoniously. Crazy as it seems I will miss my encounters with the doc and staff when I'm no longer a patient. I can't say enough good things about this physician.

It was terrible. He wouldn’t give my wife a time of day for her to explain to him what was going on and she knew what was going on and as soon as she would start to talk he would cut her off and tell her it’s all in her head that something is going on and sent us to the Er for the same thing that could have been done at his office. Now he is refusing to call her back because she won’t go to a neurosurgeon.

Dr. Zakari and his staff are outstanding both professionally and personally. Dr. Zakari is extremely intelligent and he does a fantastic job explaining things on a level you can understand. He is compassionate and truly cares about his patients. He has drastically improved my quality of life. I fully recommend him without reservation or hesitation.

He is a very kind,caring nice Doctor. He has made my quality of my life more bearable to live. He is thorough in explaining and further helping my chronic pain. I highly recommend him in his field of doctoring. He will help your pain.

Excellent doctor. I went from crippling pain to none at all with his assistance. He looks at all aspects of pain management and is very careful not to overprescribe dangerous pain medication. Genuinely cares about his patients. I’ve always gotten an appointment quickly, and never waited in the waiting room too long. Highly recommend Dr. Zakari.

They say an hour but many times it turns into two. Then he tells you that although he knows you need the opioids (Percocet) that he started prescribing to you several years earlier that he will no longer give them to you and you should find a new doctor! He was good when he was at Mercy Hospital working for someone else but this practice that is his is absolutely horrible! Don’t go there if you have more important things to do because you will sit in an empty room staring at the wall for at least 30-45 minutes! Wish there was a zero star rating!

Very through and kind. No wait and staff so so helpful.

He knows what he's doing in pain management. Without Dr. Zakari, my life would be very uncomfortable. Highly recommend.

He is a great doctor who cares about his patients. Yes, you may have to wait but I would rather wait for a doctor who takes the time to listen to me and explain things, than a doctor who is on time but hurries me along.

Perfect example of a doctor who bites off more than they can chew. Great at first then treats you as dirt. Wait time usually at least an hour. Does not like smokers but fails to understand the pain he is treating if managed well smokers don't smoke as much. Be prepared to suffer his attitude if he is having a bad day and also his ridicule if things don't go his way. Make sure to keep all of your receipts as he does not always send the money to the billing department and make sure the front desk clerk puts your money under proper heading ( example) not under co pay when it's a deductible!!

I love Zakari's work and his staff. He was very patient, kind and explained things clearly for me. I was in A LOT of pain from herniated discs pressing on my sciatic nerve. I tried everything before going to Pain Management. His office fit me in right away because of the amount of pain I was in. I recieved my first set of epidural shots & within a week my pain was about 80% better! Great doctor and staff! I love Zakari's work and his staff.

Great practice! The doctor and the staff are awesome! I was in incredible pain from herniated discs pressing on my sciatic nerve and after seeing Dr Zakari he had me on the road to recovery quickly. I was about 80% better after 1 week & it only continued to get better!

Internationalist. Does not give up.

Love this doctor! Dr. Zakari is wonderful! He takes his time with his patients. He truly listens and is very caring! I highly recommend him as a doctor!

The results are great, but he is always late with his appointments. It is 1:45 and my appointment was for 12:45 and I'm still waiting!! If want an on time appt. get it for 8:00 a.m.

Dr. Zakari and his staff have l ways been caring and kind to me. They always listen to my concerns with pain and ask me how I feel about a plan for treatment. They always try to do my procedures with the least amount of pain possible and ask that I call or message them in a few days so they know if I am feeling okay. Excellent doctor!!!

This doctor refuses to prescribe opioid medication unless you are terminal with cancer. If you are willing to have your spinal canal injected with the highly controversial epidural steroid solution, you will love this guy. But do your research, because arachnoiditis is irreversible once you get it and you will be in even more pain in your back after the arachnoid lesions form on your dura and your spinal nerves begin to clump. Please be careful.

As patients began getting scheduled closer together in and among his conducting procedures, communication and efficiency dropped drastically. The last appointment I went to I spent 2.5 hours waiting to be seen for a simple prescription refill. This past week the office was closed but no one called the patients that had appointments and I showed up needing my next month's refill and no one was there. He has given me the wrong prescription (dosage & type) four times.
