ZocDoc

ZocDoc is legit the bombdotcom. Completely second the reviewer that compared ZocDoc to Opentable. I personally abhor calling up people, just to be put on hold so that they can flip through their calendar and try to squeeze you in. It’s just so inefficient!
In steps ZocDoc to save the world (and my phone minutes!). Super quick and easy, you can narrow down by zip code, type of doctor, your insurance, and even sex of the doctor! There are reviews that will help you with things from bedside manner to wait time. What’s not to love?
I also had one of my appts reschedule and received an Amazon GC… plus they mailed me a free ZocDoc shirt! In love =D
ZocDoc — can I work for you guys?!

Wow whoever came up with this idea is a genius and this definitely helps make our lives easier. We all know that booking an appointment in the city could be so much pain. Waiting on the phone for over 10 minutes is usually the norm.
By using ZocDoc, you can browse the doctors and make appointment like you book a restaurant online — simple and easy.
When my doctor rescheduled my appointment, they offered me a $ 10 Amazon gift card for the inconvenience they caused. What an awesome customer service!!!
I hope more and more doctors start using this system!

ZocDoc is a fabulous service. I much prefer booking an appointment online than calling and haggling over times with receptionists. Unfortunately, most of my doctors aren’t on here yet, but I will make sure to suggest that they join! I also found a fantastic dermatologist using this service that accepted my insurance, was downtown near my job, AND had an appointment that very day! Recently I tried to make an appointment with my dentist and the office cancelled the appointment. ZocDoc contacted me immediately by both phone and email to express their apologies and followed up with the doctor’s office to make sure this wouldn’t happen again. I have been very impressed with their customer service.

Love ZocDoc! It’s a great way to make appointments without calling the office or looking for a new doctor, check it out! You can even search by your insurance and location!
Another interesting feature of the service is you can see what the doctor looks like! And for the internet dating/​social media generation, this is a great way to get a sense of your potential doctor.
Zoc Doc asks you to notify them if a doctor cancels or reschedules you. I actually had a doctor cancel my appointment and for the inconvenience, ZocDoc called me to apologize & sent me a $ 10 Amazon gift card! Now that is customer service!
I found a wonderful podiatrist through ZocDoc’s reviews… and I’ll be Unilocaling him shortly!
Zoc Doc… the way of the future! :)

Wow that was toooooo easy! I just booked a dermatologist for 12 noon on a Saturday, 12 hours beforehand. Awesome! I love the search ability to find someone who accepts your insurance! *BOOKMARKED*

I think I’m in love.
(And, considering it’s V-​Day on Sunday, what an opportune discovery!)
ZocDoc provides an invaluable service to us busy New Yorkers who just DO NOT have the time to call a dozen dermatologist offices in order to find one that is open on a Saturday. We’re talking two — not one, but TWO — giant painful monster cystic zits popping up literally overnight. I need something STAT. And that something is a cortisone shot or two. I booked an appointment today, but then (of course) I got a rush work assignment that the partner said I needed to complete yesterday (so basically ASAP). So… it looks like tomorrow is my only option to get these bad boys put down.
Except tomorrow is Saturday.
Of a three day weekend.
Eeeeeeeeeeeeeek!
Luckily, a quick use of the Google-​y machine led me to ZocDoc (
), where I was able to find a dermatologist who is open on Saturday mornings. Yippee! Now I don’t have to go through my long weekend with a face worthy of a Lite-​Brite connect-​the-​dots championship.
A handy service that is the OpenTable equivalent for doctors and dentists in NYC, San Francisco, and DC, ZocDoc is convenient, quick, easy, and FREE. Confirmation of your appointment is via email, and the doctor’s office in this case also called me to confirm via phone.
Although I’m not thrilled in the least for the reason behind my needing a doctor’s appointment STAT (blame it on Tweedledum and Tweedledee here — yes, they’re so out of control they deserve their own names), I’m happy with ZocDoc and will turn to it in the future should these twins rear their ugly heads again.
