Christopher B. Zachary, MD's Online Review Report Card

He ruined my face with laser. Please do you research before going to him.

To say that Dr. Zachary should have his license revolked is an understatement. He removed a Spitz Nevus from my nose. It should have been a simple, in-patient procedure. Unfortunately, he cut several nerves, which caused permenant damsge as well as post op hemoraging and a severe infection. I had to beg his office staff to contact him to find out exactly what to do. They refused. Instead, a nurse practitioner suggested I apply pressure to the wound and see the doctor the following day. Dr. Zachary was abrasive, minimized the blood loss, pain, suffering, and even ignored the infected area. I was told by his Resident that "Dr. Zachary could no longer help me and I should go elsewhere." I was shocked! Patient abuse, patient abandonment, malpractice. Thankfully, days later, another doctor at UCI Dermatology prescribed antibiotics. I then went to UCLA for reconstructive surgery in order to have Dr. Zachary's many mistakes fixed.

This guy told me fraxel laser would cure my acne scars at least 50%. He made my face look even worst than it was before (This was in 2016 and my face still looks horrible). Seeing I'm not the only one who he did this to Im warning others to avoid getting any procedures from him.

Dr. Zachary did MOHS surgery on my eyelid ,cheek and recently above my lip . The cosmetic results were excellent . These were very difficult areas to remove skin cancers . He and his staff did a wonderful job .

I am so grateful to Dr. Zachary. Chemo side effects had left marks and pigmentation on my face. Dr. Z used non-ablative lasers to gently heal me. I actually look better than before I had my chemo!! Dr. Zachary has a great bedside manner -- even just when he was holding my shoulder during the procedure I felt relaxed and knew I was in good hands. Thank you again Dr. Z!

I had Dr. Zachary perform Mohs surgery on my face after three previous procedures (2 conventional, 1 Mohs). He is simply an incredible physician and surgeon! The tumor was fairly large, but the site healed well and is virtually unnoticeable. Dr. Zachary is personable, patient, considerate, and takes considerable pains to explain every alternative and potential consequence. This was absolutely a superior experience and I would recommend Dr. Zachary to anyone.

all procedures seem easy and elegant as this american british born scientist and visionary moves through complicated medical resurfacing and heeling process he alone can accomplish with his students and fellows and kind warm hands of visiting mds from englnd germany and israel . he makes it all seem so easy, he is like sherlock holmes, and his ending to surgery are glorious.

Make that 6! A MD highly referred him. He promised to be "less aggressive" after 1st time scarring me. 2nd trip SCARRED WORSE! Did he just start doing this? Laser not right for permanent makeup removal. I now have BAD scars, irreversible pigment loss. I was better before. Practice on guinea pigs, not pretty former model face. Staff horrible, cant spell name address to send records. NIGHTMARE! VERY ANGRY, DEVASTATED! No $ can pay all us whose faces, psyche are maimed for life. STOP HIM NOW PLEASE

In my opinion, Dr. Zachary discussion and treatment of my consultation was aggressive and financially motivated. He recommended extreme laser treatments for my neck at $15,000+. Fortunately, I sought 2nd & 3rd professional opinions who provided better advice. Since then, I have met 5+ former Dr. Zachary patients who have permanent damage to their necks from the aggressive laser treatments. Caveat emptor.

I would absolutely recommend Dr. Zachary. He is a gentleman, he is kind, he has a sense of humor, he listens to his patients, he never rushes, he explains everything, he is professional, he is respectful of not only his patients but his staff as well. The care and results that I have received under Dr. Zachary and his staff are probably the best I have ever received from a medical professional. Dr. Zachary is the best there is!
