    Dr Zone is the most dedicated and empathetic physician I have ever worked with. She listened and more importantly, heard and believed what I was experiencing. I had been dismissed by and if you can believe it, shushed by another doctor when I broke out in full body hives for six weeks. Changing facilities and finding Dr Zone was a miracle and the best decision I have ever made. She immediately took action to help clear my hives, listened to my experience, and I'm now four weeks hive-free. Every nurse, MA, and med student on her staff have been top notch. I am continually impressed with U of U dermatology and specifically Dr Zone. It is the golden standard to which all medical practices should be measured.
