Dr. Constantine Zariphes, MD

I have been with DR Z since he got out of school he is a very nice and I enjoy him as my physican.

I have been a patient of Doctor Zariphes for more than 10 years. He is a very thorough and capable doctor with a compassionate bed side manner. He has never rushed an appointment and listened to my concerns. I consider Dr. Zariphes to be a real “gem” in the “all too sterile” medical field.

Dr. Zariphes, III is a wonderful, caring internist. He is thorough and attentive. He takes time to answer questions. He is always aware of any upcoming diagnostic tests that are due. I feel very confident being under his care.

I've been a patient of Dr. Zariphis for about 10 years (+/-) as have most of my immediate and extended family members. He's an awesome physician and a great guy. He's very easy to talk to, thorough, takes his time and is very caring. I worked in the business end of the Health Care industry for nearly 35 years and worked very closely with an endless number of physicians. I would rate Dr. Zariphis at the top of that list among his peers.

Excellent doctor. Really takes time and listens to what your problems and concerns are when you visit. He has been my doctor for 20 years.

I was hospitalized 2 years ago for a severe depressive episode. I was willing to try anything to get help. Dr. Zariphes would barely speak to me in our sessions, he prescribed lamictal after little to no communication. He did not even tell me what I was diagnosed with, I had to ask a nurse what lamictal was usually prescribed for. The nurse let me know My chart said diagnosed bipolar. After four days I became extremely dizzy and had terrible insomnia and heart palpitations. When I told the doctor my symptoms he stared right though me, said it was "white coat syndrome" and walked away. My social worker was not a fan of him either, he didn't even show up for my release meeting. We waited 45 minutes and another doctor singed the papers and let me go. I went to see two other doctors who both agreed that there was no evidence of bipolar at all and I was taken off of the medication. I have been fine since. I don't know why he treated me so poorly, I will say that he was wonderful with a fellow patient with PTSD and possible bipolar. I just want to let others know my experience.

This doctor is very outdated in his procedures. He is not open to discussion with patients regarding their treatment options. I can't believe he laughed at me when I asked him a question about my care. I will not be returning.

Great physician! Listens, explains, and follows through. Easy to talk with. I never feel rushed always relaxed, caring, and knowledgable.

Everything about this doctor, this office is shady. I was wrongly billed and they won't correct it. Stay away!

I have been a patient of Dr. Zaripes for many years. He has been a great doctor. Never rushes, thorough, caring, professional,knowledgable and always pleasant. I feel at ease and in very capable hands.

a bit rushed feel like you have 5 min to discuss everything

I like Dr. Z but I'm certain it's caused by the insurance companies but I feel I'm being rushed and he's gone before I have a chance to ask all my questions. Is it because I'm a Medicare patient? He doesn't probe as to the cause, just treat the instant problem.

Good general diagnostic skills and very pleasant manner. Easy to talk to. Following his advice on when to see specialists has saved my life 3 or 4 times. I think researching your own specialists, rather than simply accepting recommendations, though, is a good idea.
