    Within Atrium Health, we use survey results to better understand what is important to our patients and how we can improve healthcare experiences. The overall Patient Rating score comes from the questions on our Medallia Patient Experience Survey. Responses are measured on a scale, where 0 represents "very poor" and 10 represents "very good.” Those scores are shown as 1 to 5 stars on the provider’s profile.

    Patient Comments

    • January 19, 2023 Doctor Zander was very knowledgeable and helpful. The reason for the appointment wasn’t very, but she still spent time and spoke with me and discussed things in my chart, etc. I usually feel super connected to my doctors, but I didn’t feel that. She wasn’t rude and was very thorough we just didn’t connect. That could have honestly been due to the terrible experience I had from check-in and the clinical nurse; causing me to be completely closed off.
    • January 13, 2023 I appreciated that she worked me into her schedule for an urgent concern. She was forthright and clear in her manner and was referred with high recommendation.
    • January 13, 2023 Dr. Zander is an excellent physician who obviously cares about her patients.
    • January 10, 2023 We expected a compassionate provider. Instead it seemed our questions were dismissed and seemed they were silly to the provider. We waited several months for this appointment and left disappointed. It’s a very difficult to find the appropriate gyn provider in the wake system.
    • January 9, 2023 Dr. Zander is refreshingly honest and straightforward, but obviously still cares deeply for her patients and their health.
    • January 5, 2023 A good doctor but I had to wait 30. Inures in examining room on the table with paper garments on.
    • December 8, 2022 Kimberly Zander did a superb job of explaining to me, what needed to be done. To make sure I will be healthy again and somewhat pain free .
    • November 23, 2022 First visit with Dr Zander and it was great!
    • November 3, 2022 I had to wait several months to get in, but once I did I liked her..she was friendly. They seemed surprised I didn't still have my original problem, but my GP had to handle it because I couldn't wait that long for treatment. That and Dr's seem so rushed nowadays are my only gripes..doesn't feel personal anymore.
    • November 2, 2022 During my first visit /consultation, Dr. Zander was condescending to my mother and me. My mother asked questions two different times and Dr. Zander??s response was short and dismissive. I didn??t think she was too approachable. Even though we expressed to the nurse that we would not be back and there was no need to sign up for the patient portal, the nurse acknowledged the statement but it did not solicit any follow up inquiry as to why we would ???not be back??. Based on Dr. Zander??s behavior, it??s probably common for the nurse to hear such comments. My mother told me that it was my decision as to whether I wanted to pursue a patient doctor relationship past the consultation but I was adamant about not returning. We have already made an appointment with a different provider.
    • October 26, 2022 After a frustrating experience with another doctor where I felt I was not given clear information, Dr. Zander's clear communication style was such a reassurance. She really helped me feel like I was making an informed decision that was the best one for my situation. I have much more confidence in my treatment plan now and a lot less anxiety overall.
    • October 13, 2022 Awesome Dr.i wish I could have meet as a doctor sooner
    • October 12, 2022 Dr Zander??s was wonderful . She explained everything to me in a very clear manner!!! Thank you for your help Dr Zander.
    • October 5, 2022 Dr. Zander is always attentive, pleasant, and efficient. I appreciate having her as a physician.
    • September 17, 2022 Didn't need to wait long before seeing Dr. Zander. She was willing to spend time answering my questions.
    • September 15, 2022 Dr Zander is compassionate and professional.She takes the time necessary to answer my questions and to make suggestions for issues that I may be having with my treatment plan.
    • September 14, 2022 Dr Zander was knowledgeable and clear in my treatment options.
    • September 1, 2022 Very kind talked to me what she was going to do. Listen to me.
    • August 13, 2022 Dr. Zander is very caring and kind.
    • August 8, 2022 She was friendly, explained things fully and out lined treatments and asked my opinion. I would definitely recommend her to those asking about a new GYN.
    • July 2, 2022 I don't feel that I can say anything about Dr. Zander. It was a clinical experience without warmth or any effort whatsoever to know me as a person. I left the office thinking to myself, "I've never had such an impersonal gynecological visit and it makes me feel yuck."
    • July 2, 2022 Excellent. Explained everything in detail in terms I could understand. Found me a new provider!
    • June 30, 2022 Dr. Zander is and awesome Dr. never makes you feel uncomfortable and explains everything exceptionally well.
    • June 28, 2022 Dr. Zander was very responsive; explained everything very well; was very clear about what I needed to do. I felt like she understand my situation.
    • June 25, 2022 Dr. Zander is very knowledgeable and has great bedside manners. She listens to the patient and works to find a resolve. I definitely recommend her services to anyone who needs it!
    • June 17, 2022 Dr Zander is by far the best ob/gyn I??ve ever had. Dr.Zander is very caring and easy to talk to.
    • May 29, 2022 She's a good doctor she helped me with my problem.
    • May 28, 2022 Given the time restraints providers are faced with, Dr. Zander was compassionate and understanding and took time to talk with me. She acted like she had as much time with me as I needed. She was very prompt. She was compassionate with her exam even though I had some uncontrollable discomfort. The only suggestion I have and this is truly a personal thing for me with my medical experience, I wish she would go into further detail when performing her exam. Exactly what she is doing and seeing. She was COMPLETELY appropriate and did tell me what she was doing and that things looked normal. I personally would have enjoyed more detail.
    • May 9, 2022 She is a very good doctor.
    • April 16, 2022 Dr. Zander is such a pro. While I only see her once a year she knows me and is knowledgeable about my medical history.
    • April 16, 2022 Dr. Zander is a great blend of caring and clinical. She takes the time to listen and hear your concerns and thoughts. Then she explains things in a no nonsense way that is to the point and concise. If you have any questions, she will take the time to explain the what's and why's of your question. She is an excellent doctor and I highly recommend her!
    • April 3, 2022 Dr Zander asked questions and really listened to me. She took the time to explain my options. She was very thorough.
    • March 31, 2022 Stated on previous screen. Very nice and pleasant but a little short on information.
    • March 23, 2022 Excellent provider, always look for my well-being after surgery.
    • March 4, 2022 Yo solo puedo decir que estoy muy agradecida con la dra. Kimberly es atenta se preocupa por c??mo estoy y como me estoy recuperando de verdad muchas gracias dra. Kimberly dios la bendiga
    • February 28, 2022 Dr. Zander was pleasant and attentive.
    • February 17, 2022 Dr. Zander is an excellent provider and skilled surgeon. With each visit Dr. Zander has proven herself worthy of my confidence and trust. Dr. Zander remembers who I am, what my issues are and always ready with a precise plan of action for resolution. I count myself very fortunate to have Dr. Zander as my provider. Thank you Dr. Zander for your Excellence in everything you do!
    • February 13, 2022 She is absolutely the best!
    • February 3, 2022 Highly recommend! Dr. Zander is an awesome provider who is caring, gentle, and very friendly. I have put off OB visits for a long time due to bad experiences in the past, Dr. Zander made this experience a positive one and changed my view. Thank you, Dr. Zander!
