In patients' words
"Dr. Zawidniak is a excellent physician. He listens to all of my concerns & worries about my rheumatoid arthritis. He understands the pain that I'm going through & he is very compassionate with me."
— Hartford HealthCare Medical Group official provider page (Verified Patient Review)"It is extremely difficult to get a nurse or provider to return a call, and patient concerns simply don't seem to be a priority. It's disappointing and disheartening to see such a large healthcare system fail to meet even the most basic standards if communication and responsiveness."
