Dr. Zimmerman performed a pelvic floor reconstruction on me almost a year after I had a hysterectomy, A&P repair and a bladder procedure. After "everything fell" that they had worked on with the prior combined procedures, I was upset and disgusted. I was so thankful to be referred to him. It turns out he is one of the top doctors in the country at pelvic floor reconstruction. Not only that, but he sincerely cares about his patients. He is gentle, comforting, and a Christian. When I had a complication (a possible PE) develop during the wee hours of the morning after my surgery, he was as upset as I was and took very good care of me. He explored all possibilities and followed up. I have worked in medicine for years, and recognize the difference between a doctor who "knows his stuff" and also has a caring attitude towards their patients, and those who don't. If you live anywhere in Tennessee, it is worth the trip to Vanderbilt to see Dr. Zimmerman.
