"Dr Zaks laid out no plan of care for recently diagnosed Hashimotos outside of weight loss surgery. Literally never gave me the option to do anything else. He is a doctor that lives only in the era he received his medical degree in and has not continued to learn and approach medical issues any differently or more appropriately. He is rude, judgemental, and provides no constructive feedback.
