Dr. Zell is amazing, I have never been disappointed with her care and have been seeing her for several years at 2 different locations.  However, the office is located in the Out-Patient Building so they bill you as an out-patient and my insurance will not cover it, it goes toward my deductible, the billing department refuses to bill it as an office visit so I'm screwed.  Seeing her every 3 months in this setting is taking a toll on my finances therefore I will sadly have to find a Dr. who is not located in a hospital building.  Good Luck to me because 95% of the Dr.'s on this list are located on hospital grounds which makes no sense.  I'm truly surprised that I am the first to review!
