Care philosophy

I believe that the science of medicine and evidence-based guidelines are essential in guiding patient care.

My goal is to combine clinical knowledge with compassionate understanding to provide care that reflects both scientific evidence and what matters most to each patient.

Dr. Zunamon always acts professionally and takes time to review my history and explain recommendations or next steps. His quick responses to report test findings are especially appreciated.
March 21, 2026
Dr. Zunamon is a very thoughtful doctor. He listens to my concerns and helped formulate a heart health plan that works for me. I would always recommend him. It is unfortunate to hear of his retirement.

Visiting the Cardiac Dept. And Z. Is always a positive experience.

I am very sad that I have lost my cardiologist to retirement. Dr. Zunamon was a wonderful cardiologist. He spent time to listen and understand what was going on in my life that might affect my heart. He was responsive to my requests but he always gave me his professional opinions even if they disagreed with mine. He had guts and did not order drugs or tests to protect himself. He always told me what he thought but didn't push me to follow his advice when it was 6 of one or half a dozen of another.

New doctor for me and I was extremely pleased. Felt he listened and responded to my concerns.
November 19, 2025
He is that rarity of a doctor - warm, engaged (with me, not with the screen), experienced, highly knowledgeable, patient with my questions, respectful of my perspective but crystal clear in his opinions - that all of us want, many of us remember, but few of us encounter anymore.
November 12, 2025
I could not be happier with the time, counsel, professionalism and knowledge Dr Zunamon provided me. He is first rate, kind, sensitive, and thoughtful. Took ample time to speak with me and discuss alternatives. We need more physicians like him.

Dr z was very honest and helpful. This appt was a waste of both our times. Recmmending person should be admonished. If a med is not working, it's not working period. This was not dr z specialty. He shouldn't have to address it.

September 27, 2025
The doctor did not ask for my chief complaint. He shared many of his opinions that were not requested.

He was candid and forthright in answering my questions, and was willing to deal with the complexities of medical decision making

Takes time. Cuts thru to the matter you are there for.
June 29, 2025
The doctor was very dismissive, belittling, impatient, rude, and condescending. He didn't introduce herself, and this was our first time meeting when he walked through the door his first question to me was, "why are you here" (this was said in a very condescending tone).
