Dr. Zafar has been following my condition for several years now and has performed a very successful TURP surgery two years ago. I am doing quite well under his care. All questions are fully answered and adequate time is given me when I am at the clinic in Centerville, so that I feel all issues are covered.
It’s crazy how little discomfort I have after my procedure! Dr Z was great before, during and after. The nurses were so nice and made me feel very comfortable too. Overall very happy with the entire experience.
I’ve been beyond pleased with the service and attention I’ve received through Dr. Zafar and his office. I was extremely nervous, and frankly a little embarrassed to talk about the issues I was having with incontinence. That was quickly put to rest by everyone I interacted with. I am so happy I finally went through with this process!
5 Star Service and Professionalism!Upon entering Lakeview Center For Urology, I was warmly greeted by the front office staff, swiftly brought into a room and had vitals taken by a clinician.I was professionally greeted and had a very thorough discussion on my concerns with Dr. Zafar!I will be a returning patient when in need and referring friends and family alike to him and his clinic.This was a tremendous experience!
Dr. Zafar is one of the most informative, professional and thorough doctors that I have seen in my adult life. He used language that was very easy to understand. He went out of his way to accommodate me to complete this procedure. I look forward to working with him during my follow care. I would DEFINITELY recommend Dr. Zafar.
Good and clear information, honest and straightforward. Understanding of financial/insurance concerns and adaptive in response to personal concerns.
Dr. Zafar was great, gave me all the information I needed. As well as the rest of the staff was great.
Dr Zafar was very comforting and knowledgeable, the procedure was quick with minimal pain. I would highly recommend his office to anyone!
I recently moved to the Des Moines area and needed to find a urologist. Dr. Zafar was recommended by my primary care physician. Dr Zafar thoroughly reviewed records from my old urologist prior to my appointment and made good recommendations regarding additional care.
Pain free and worry free vasectomy today. Dr. Zafar is excellent and I'd highly recommend his methodology for the procedure. I was worried for nothing.
Best urologist in the city always cares about his patients. Is always there when you need him. Best caring staff always makes time when needed. I have recommended him to several people that have had bad experiences and they love him. He has been there for me on three different kidney stone episodes didn’t matter time day or night he made time some way to be there. Will never change doctors. Never had an appt problem or billing problem. His staff is well trained and keeps everything on time thank you . Total rating is 5 with 5 being the top rating.
My first appt with Dr. Zafar was very informative on what steps that needed to be taken to further help me with understanding and correcting my issues!The office staff was also helpful with all the information I needed and scheduling appointments for further examinations.So far 👍
Great experience overall. Was able to book appointment and have procedure within 2 weeks compared to other places which take 2-3 months and a lot of back & forth. Staff was friendly and Dr. Zafar is very professional, knowledgable and keeps you at ease. Highly recommend.
Dr. Z and staff were very kind and helpful. The procedure went quick and painless. I continue to be pain free 4 days later. Highly recommended!
Would highly recommend Dr. Zafar, he and his office made the entire vasectomy process as simple and painless as possible
Everyone in the office is super kind and professional. Dr. Zafar was patient and has a great bedside manor. He covered various treatments to get to the root of the problem. Highly recommend!
Dr. Zafar and his staff were very welcoming, helpful and informative during my experience. Next day follow is always reassuring and appreciated. I highly recommend this office for a Vasectomy in the metro area.
I had a Vasectomy done by Dr. Zafar. Was nervous about getting it done but it was a great experience. No pain at all!They emailed me the paperwork ahead of time. My appt was 1:20pm, I got in on time and I was leaving by 2pm! Friendly and helpful staff. Dr. Zafar was very nice, competent and very approachable with questions. Dr. Zafar personally called the next day to follow up even. Highly recommend the Lakeview Center!!
The compassion, kindness, and care of Dr. Zafar, Amanda, and team went beyond any expectation we had for our healthcare needs. There aren’t words to express our gratitude. Dr. Zafar takes his time to listen and clearly explains potential pathways and education on conditions. The peace of mind our visit with Lakeview provided is invaluable. If you’re ever in need of urological care, Dr.Zafar and his team are truly rare in their compassionate care for their patients and I highly recommend them.
