After my little stint in the hospital with appendicitis, I went for a follow up today with new internal medicine Dr. Zaidi. She was great....VERY thorough and a lot of bedside manner. She is now accepting new patients so all of you Snow Birds should check her out. Don't do like I did and be caught without a Dr. in an emergency! (352 633 5282 Laurel Manor Dr. area)

Thanks...I am looking for an internist. I need to get established with a good doctor before I get sick! Hope you are feeling better!

My husband have both had extremely positive experiences with Dr. Z Zaidi. We would recommend her highly. Best, John and Carol Piirto

Good to know as we will be moving toThe Villages in July. Since joining this website, I have been getting great recommendations for doctors. I want to be able to set up my appointments ahead of time before moving in. Thanks

Does this doctor and her office staff speak English clearly?

[Russ_Boston]

Yes.

Dr Zaidi is one of the finest doctors I have ever seen. She took care of my 92 year old mother last year. Mom just passed away May 9th but because of Dr. Zaidi we were able to care for her with confidence and able to show her how very much she was loved. My husband and I will be using Dr. Zaidi for our Primary Care Physician once down here permanently. We love her. She is not only an excellent doctor but one of the finest human beings. Thank you, Dr. Zaidi.

Where is she? Is she at Colony or one of the Villages centers?

[Russ_Boston]

Better check again. Dr. Zaidi has left the area to my knowledge. I spoke with her about 2 months ago in the hospital and I know she left her group here. She said she was going to Shands in Gainesville.

She was my wife's doctor also.

I have heard very good things about Dr. Noel who is now with the Villages Health System in Colony.

Every time I find a good Dr she winds up leaving TV! I am sure Dr Noel will be gone soon too. Very frustrating

Yes, our dear Dr Zaidi has left which many were sad to see her go, however, her replacement Dr Tasmeen Cheema is wonderful as well and hope that she stays with us. Coincidentaly, she has a slight resemblance to Dr Zaidi along with the cool, calming effect with patients. Hubby and I are so very pleased with Dr Tasmeen Cheema.

Her brother also is a dr Cheema in the same office.

I certainly hope she doesn't. Both of us see Dr. Noel and we are happy we chose her. In a way she reminds me of the doctor I had back north except she has given us considerably more time and attention in our appointments than our prior doctor back north was able to do. Hope that lasts... and her too!
