Best doctor I've had. I experience a wide range of somewhat random medical issues and also have to get a lot of bloodwork done for my medications. They are always there, respond very quickly and help with everything. They know more about FMLA than the HR person at my work. Totally worth the money (especially for the robes that make me feel like I'm at the spa and not dying).

Best Doctor I had. Very knowledgeable and very carrying. I underwent the Opus plasma treatment and despite being painful there was an incredibly great result. I always had an asymmetric eyelid, one slightly lower than the other since I was a baby, which I thought that at one point in time I would need to do a blepharoplasty. With the Opus I managed to become symmetric and to treat some of the long term wrinkles I had from that condition. I used to have a constant retraction of the forehead above the droopier eyelid, which now is not activated constantly as it used to be and I see clearly with

Dr. Zivich is the best! Very professional, very knowledgeable, and very personable. You can always connect with his office very easily. Everyone that works there Joe the nurse and the front desk people are extremely kind and helpful. I never leave Dr Zivich's office feeling that I didn't get everything I needed answered. He is seriously the best of the best! Highly recommend!

Truly positive experience at BDH. Easy to find. Space is so welcoming. Staff extremely kind and professional. At 57 years old - I have the common aging deep "11" forehead lines. I felt they made me appear angry when I wasn't at all. I had tried multiple topical products and treatments for years. I went to BDH for a consult for treating those deep forehead/frown lines with Botox.
Amanda Digitale RN, BSN was knowledgeable, informative and completely reassuring. We made a plan and I was treated right then and there with the first of the recommended sessions. It was mildly uncomfortable (but- hey

I went to BDH for laser hair removal on legs and armpits. The office is clean and welcoming and Dr. Zivich is fantastic to work with (it's six hour long sessions... so lots of time talking!). He's caring, knowledgeable and takes a holistic/patient-focused approach to wellness.Dr. Zivich was meticulous, he worked with me in early sessions to adjust laser settings based on pain threshold/skin reaction, and passed over stubborn areas 3x in the later sessions, leading to excellent results.

I dont have a single negative thing to say about Dr. Zivich and his staff at BDH! Every visit has exceeded expectations in regards to friendliness, efficiency, and addressing the reason for my visit. Finding a PCP who genuinely cares about your health and makes you feel like you are more than just a number/appointment is HARD, and I couldnt recommend BDH enough for their incredible staff and services. I have gone in for: rapid Covid testing, bloodwork, medication changes, physical ailments, and supplementation help. My boyfriend won some free Botox and spoke very highly of the appointment
