Dr. Zapata is wonderful!! I had my surgery on Aug 15th with him and his team. All went smooth...the only issue i had is I dont' speak spanish and I should have brushed up because the nurses do not speak much english....but Dr. Zapata and the Anesthisologist did...it went great!! I never have regretted this for one minute!!! good luck to you!! If you have any questions please feel free to contact me!!
