Treating humans, not numbersI wanted to inform you of the remarkable treatment I received from Dr. Jennifer Zreloff at the 1525 Clifton Road clinic location. Under my current HMO, The Emory Clinic is not an option for medical coverage, an issue I plan to address with my employers. I was a self-pay patient of Dr. Zreloff's in August due to a disagreement in a diagnosis made by my HMO and the HMO's plan of care. |

Dr. Zreloff and her staff spent more time with me in one visit than my HMO has spent with me in the last year. I was confused when the staff actually wanted to talk with me about my situation before beginning an examination, not something I had experienced in a medical setting for quite a long time. The type of follow-up care received from Dr. Zreloff and the staff at The Emory Clinic was something that I never would have imagined receiving from a medical provider. Dr. Zreloff replaced my fears with the information I needed to make an informed decision about my health care. In the world of HMOs and five-minute physician visits, treatment like that received from Dr. Zreloff and The Emory Clinic is unfamiliar. Dr. Zreloff treated me as a human and not as a health record number. I could never thank her enough for her care.
