Care Philosophy
Dr. Zagler is committed to practicing evidence-based medicine. “I believe there are only two reasons to do things in medicine: to make the patients live longer, feel better, or both. In this fascinating era of advanced diagnostic and therapeutic technology, we frequently see that these resources are overutilized or underutilized,” Dr. Zagler explains. “The most powerful tool we have as physicians is listening to our patients before deciding what test, medicine, or procedure is adequate for them. Being there for patients when they need us is the most important part of medicine.”
