Dr. Z has been my allergy/asthma Dr. for many years and has helped me immensely. I would recommend him to anyone who needs help keeping their allergy/asthma under control. He is the best and a great guy as well!

Waits time tends to be really long with Dr. Z. My son with food/environmental allergies and now sees Deborah Katcher-Buckley NP. She is always on time and the visit doesn't seem rushed. I highly recommend her. We also get all our allergy testing here and have done SLIT as well. They have been very helpful for his environment allergies.

Ended up with asthma and he walked her through every step on how to use her inhaler. Also ended having some allergies and they helped us with the meds she's needs so great I made an appointment for son! Great place!

I would definitely recommend AAPRI to a family member or friend. My husband is a patient there as is very satisfied with the care and treatment he has receireceived from the Dr., PA and staff.

I am a new patient to Dr. Zwetchkenbaum. I have seen quite a few allergists over the years and he was by far the most informed. He does all kinds of allergy and asthma research to improve patient treatment. I feel as though he goes over and beyond for the care of his patients

My three year old daughter had her first appointment today with Dr. Z The office staff couldnt have been more pleasant. The wait time was only about 15mins. Dr. Z was very pleasant, very informative about how ingredients in alot of foods can cause our children discomfort, lack of sleep, itching. I had no idea how many poor choices I was making in my daughter's diet. Hopefully following the diet they gave me will help with my daughter's lack of sleep, itching, hyper activness. Would definately recommend Dr Z to all my friends and family!

Great experience with the doctor and staff! The doctor was efficient, considerate and very informative about my son's allergy issues. We went off to the other clinic for the food challenge and again, had a wonderful and organized experience with the staff there. Very good team and approach to patients.

Dr. Z was astounding, he was able to answer so many of our pressing questions. We felt like we were in a allergy seminar with all the wealth of knowledge he had for us. The office staff (Warwick) was not nice. Staff would walk into the room without knocking or introducing themselves. We overheard personal conversations that we should not be privy too. I would prefer to go to another office.

First Appointment here. The receptionist was rude. The girl who took my vitals didn't know anything after I just filled out 6 pages of papers of why I'm here. The girl with dirty blonde hair who took my breathing test came in rude and rushed me. Nobody introduced themselves and we're all around rude. Not to mention my Appointment was at 1130 and the dr didn't come in until 1215. I'll look for somewhere else to go now.
