Dr.Paymaster has excellent bed side manner. He took his time during our appt, explained things well, and was receptive to all of my questions. I also had to have my anual Pap smear which in general is usually uncomfortable. I was given the option to reschedule with a female provider, but opted to just get it over with. I couldn't have asked for a smoother exam, Dr. Paymaster went out of his way to ensure I was comfortable.

This is the second time I have had an appointment with Dr. Zaal Paymaster and I am equally impressed as I was the initial visit. He is very thorough and professional. Any questions I asked were answered to my satisfaction and he even asked if I had any requests for prescription refills. I hope he continues to practice at this location.
