Dr. Ziegler delivered my first baby last week. He is an amazing doctor! He answered all my questions sent via email, either weekedays or weekend. I do not know of any doctor that is accessible to answer questions without an appointment. I now have a beautiful, healthy baby girl. I have alot of respect for this doctor. He is clearly dedicated to his work.

I wish he could proceed as set medical procedures by JGH and MC Gill medical school. Have little choice left I'm still his patient that is why I'm trying to keep unconspicuous as possible because it has been shown doctors can keep grudge and it is outwardly of their profession. Unfortunately I can't recommend him to anyone.

I just had a hysterectomy performed by Dr Ziegler and have to say before meeting him i was a bit nervous by all the ratings of him being cold. I have to say that when i met him he was the total opposite. He was extremely frindly and compassionate. Once i got home i would email him with questions and concerns and even through the holidays he would always respond quickly. AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING DOCTOR...big thumbs up !! Thansk again Dr Ziegler.

Dr. Ziegler is the best Doctor if you are lucky enough to have him as your Doctor. He goes the extra mile for his patients. I read all the comments and must say don't get offended by what seems as rude, he is very busy and it is his sense of humor. He took excellent care of me (I had a very complicated pregnancy) and he never mentioned a c-section, I had natural birth. No cuts, not even any stitches!!! He is an expert at what he does, yet is humble. He answers e-mails within the hour, which other Doctor does that? NOT ANY! He is truly one in a million a gifted brilliant Doctor. Whether it's minor things or huge things, he's always quick with suggestions and sound advice that you can always trust. Thank you for all your help and support over the years. Lisa K.

Dr. Ziegler was the rudest, most unsympathetic doctor I have ever encountered. He made inappropriate judgments based on my appearance (he actually said "I see you have a tattoo so you must be some granola who hates doctors and wanted to have her baby at home")and then he told off my husband in the operating room (I had to have a cesarean) because he wanted me to hold our baby before she went to the nursery. Also, I was strep B positive and I said I wanted to have the antibiotics so that my baby would not have to have them right after she was born. I needed them through IV for 4 hours before the birth but Dr. Zeigler did not want to wait the last hour because he wanted to keep to his schedule so he rushed me into the OR and then told the nurses to just give our baby penicilin after she was born. They did this without my knowledge or consent. I didn't even know that I had not had the IV for 4 hours because I was in labour and pretty out of it and no one told me this. Worst doctor ever!

I have nothing but very unpleasant memories of this doctor who was a caricature of everything a bad doctor can be- nasty, patronizing, and very impressed with himself, down to wearing a "cool"bandana for effect. Seemed like an adolescent boy with a scalpel playing doctor.

All he cares about is money. Come with written questions, and he will tell you, "oh no, Anna, not today, I have a big headache"; "I do not get paid to do this (talk to you)";"what do you need to know?". Over-inflated ego, arrogant S.O.B. As baby was crowning and about to be born, says "Gotta do asection next door, back in 15 min!" and leaves me there stuck for over an hour. Baby is born blue and has problems breastfeeding, needing 3 months of appointments at the bf clinic. Next one, he almost killed thanks to his negligence. Let me go way past due, never explained any dangers. When I was finally induced 3 weeks post-date, the baby almost died. When I was post-term, I was the one who had to contact him, asking when will I go for an induction; do I not need any fetal monitoring, etc. Only then did he say,"Oh, yeah, go to the hospital to get tested today."I ended up with a crash section, baby 5 weeks in NICU, +3 months inthe hospital.Failed to supervise the first-year resident.

Docteur Ziegler m’a fait tout récemment une laparoscopie et une chirurgie (kyste, ovaire et trompe retirés). Il est sans conteste extrêmement consciencieux, très efficace et digne de confiance. Toujours à l’écoute, fort disponible, c’est un excellent communicateur doté d’un bon sens de l’humour. Il prend à cœur l’état de santé de ses patients, il connait très bien ses dossiers bien qu’il soit très occupé. J’ai été rétablie extrêmement rapidement, mes cicatrices sont infimes et je n’ai ressenti aucune douleur. Il est entouré d’une équipe dévouée, fort bien organisée, dont la très gentille infirmière Winnie Flores. Mille mercis!

Dr Ziegler est mon chirurgien-gynécologue depuis près de 5 ans. J'ai d'abord eu une miomectomie et, récemment, une laparoscopie. J'ai eu un excellent suivi avec lui et il a tout fait pour m'aider. Il donne un visage humain à la médecine. Il est occupé, mais répond très rapidement aux questions envoyées par courriel. Je le recommande sans hésiter, il est fabuleux!

Dr Ziegler is a special character yes he can be very rude, obnoxious, cocky, and has a humor that frankly gets most of us frowning... But that is because he is considered one of the best in his field as for the attitude and the caring part he'll most likely should get a zero. Never the less he knows his stuff. Of course if you have no particular problem with your pregnancy most likely you would not want the type of doctor who keeps one hand on the door knob while talking to you... btw he wont feel bad to cut you off and leave!

Not a good doctor. Only cares about $$$$. Will not listen to you & does not care. If you are pregnant, be prepared to have a c-section if he's your doctor (he'll make sure of that because it's the easiest thing for him). I will never go back to him.

Dr. Ziegler has a very unprofessional, rude, arrogant, obnoxious and extremely bad person and doctor. He's absolutely NOT the kind of doctor that would go the extra mile for his patients. Really rushes you through every question ... Be aware and stay away from him.

Dr Ziegler is amazing, I visited him twice for a colposcopy, an extremely positive experience and he has a wonderful sense of humor, great intern as well and you can see that he has a passion for his field of expertise . The only constructive comment that I feel should be made is that the woman that prepares the charts should consult each patient with the door closed, I was able to hear personal info of other patients.

He was (words I cannot write in this G rated audience forum) to me and my family during the delivery of our first. He induced me with our first child and because I refused the epidural, he said "you know we're here to induce you, not roll you around in the granola". He then told the nurse to give me the epi without my knowledge or consent (yes my family overheard him). He went on to say, as I was in full labour, "*I* decide when your baby is born, not God" and that's when I asked him to leave. I called St Mary's emergency and asked them if they could send an ambulance to the Jewish General Hospital so that I could deliver in their emergency ward rather than with him. Thank goodness Rhona, a fantastic nurse on duty at the original hospital, convinced me to stay but assigned me to a different DR who delivered our child without instance. I have since changed OB/GYNs. Now if you want a fantastic OB/GYN, look no further than DR. Monton (that is if you can get an appointment!).

After having Dr. Ziegler as an obgyn, I have completely lost faith in doctors. I don't trust them and have so much difficulty going to see one even when I really need to. This man completely destroyed my belief that doctors are decent people who care about their patients. Nice going, Dr. Ziegler!

I am 26 and was sent to Dr. Ziegler for a colposcopy and a follow up 6 months later. I found him to be rushed, but to be honest I prefer it that way. If he were to spend 15 minutes with each patient,I'd be waiting days to get into his office. Everyone should show up prepared with the questions they want answered and not be shy to say "hey, stop for a minute, I have some questions". He is very funny and cocky, you have to share that sense of humour to get it perhaps. Overall he answered my questions and fears and even cracked some jokes during a painful biopsy, which I appreciated as dreadful silence would have been awful. I have had 3 or 4 doctors in the past which were just as rushed but had no sense of humour and came across as impatient and cold. I appreciate the effort Ziegler made to be lively and take my mind off the uncomfortable appointment. He is simply high strung. I would recommend him, and hope to have him around when I am pregnant.He even gave me some job advice! Thanks Z.

Was pregnant with history of ectopics. During physical exam, said 'something's wrong, get an ultrasound', then he left. Couldn't get ultrasound before 3 months! Could have died so I lied and went to ER and got the ultrasound which proved ectopic. Was given methotrexate. He wouldn't give me a follow up appointment before 2 weeks even though the ER doc said I needed to be seen within 48hours. I quickly found another doc who did surgery because meds weren't working. He never checked in or followed up. I could have DIED; ectopic pregnancy is an obstetrical EMERGENCY, Dr. Ziegler!!

Dr. Ziegler is the best doctor I've had and in my experience he has been nothing but polite, helpful and completely open to answering my questions and addressing my fears. Rarely has he NOT been rushed as well as rarely on time, however I'm not sure how much of that is his fault. I am happy to experience the delays in exchange for my overall positive experiences in his care. I would recommend him without hesitation.

When I was given his name as an OB for my first child, after having been treated by another OB like I was cattle to be pushed through an office, I was told, "If you can handle his personality and sense of humour, you'll really like him." I'm well educated and have an excellent knowledge of biology and physiology, so I didn't have the same kinds of questions as some might have. For the first visit he took his time, and then after that it was very short bursts of him coming through the door and doing the basic tests. I had two uneventful pregnancies, while overweight, and he always made sure to check out for things that might affect me. I agree with the suggestion for a list of questions -- he's got little time, but he'll answer anything you ask him, whether in person or through email. Wait times are long, but feel lucky you've got an OB/GYN who's willing to take on more patients and manages to have enough energy to see you after his other zillion or so patients.

je suis rentrée en urgence apres plusieurs jours d'hémorragie pour une grossesse ectopique dans le col (tres tres tres rare). C'est lui qui m'a prise en charge au Jewish hospital et je ne me suis jamais sentie aussi bien prise en charge. Je sentais que j'était entre bonnes mains et Il m'a expliqué que possible que le tout finisse par une hysterectomie mais qu'il allait tout faire pour que non. Aussitot arrivée, je voyais qu'il était tres connaissant et savait ce qu'il faisait, j'ai aussitot eu une embolization le meme jour, puis des médicaments chimiotherapie pour lesquels il a requis les services d'un oncologue , ensuite j'ai eu mon curetage et il avait donné la consigne que personne ne commence quoi que ce soit du curetage avant son arrivée, il m'a vraiment prise en charge de AaZ. Je ne le remercierait jamais assez d'avoir tout fait pour éviter l'hysterectomie. C'est dans les grandes tempetes qu'on voit les grands capitaines.

Rude and obnoxious. I didn't like him at all. Not the kind of doctor that would go the extra mile for his patients. He rescheduled my c-section because he wanted to leave earlier for a long weekend and when I arrived at the hospital no one was expecting me. After a few hours of going back and forth, I finally was able to go to the operating room only to have him say and I quote " No wonder you couldn't give birth, you have the oddliest shaped body I've ever seen!" and started laughing. It was humiliating. I would never recommend him to anyone.

Superb doctor and outstanding surgeon. Gave me all the time I needed, excellent advice and answered my questions by email. I recovered incredibly quickly after a hysterectomy performed by him, as he had told me I would. Very caring and humane - rushed, but that is the fault of our system.

very impressed with himself. I agree with the rating that he seems like a teenage boy more than a professional. Who cares what a doctor "looks like", why is that so important to some of these raters? He doesn't seem to care about his patients and I know he was awful to me, I didn't return to him after my first.

Rude, obnoxious, never prepared to discuss anything with you. Really rushes you through every question and is so taken with himself that he would rather behave like a tennage boy than like a respectable doctor. Bad, Bad, bad.

Thanks to Dr. Ziegler we enjoy happy moments with our little son. Dr. Ziegler ran to the case room when we needed him. Our baby's heart rate dropped under 60 and we thought we may lose him...despite a considerable team (two resident drs and several nurses). His attitude is highly professional and honestly he was the only one from the medical team who could control the situation. Thank you, Dr. Ziegler!

This man physically hurt me, belittled me and treated me as if I was dirt. I wrote a strongly worded letter to him and when I called to get test results, I had to threaten to go to the Gazette before they called me back only to be told that I was no longer his patient. I was vindicated by graffiti on a popular restaurants' bathroom that said Cleve Zeigler is a prick. My sentiments exactly!

I was very surprised and even upset to read some of the more critical comments about Dr. Ziegler In my experience he has only been kind, respectful, helpful and more generous with his time than one would expect from a specialist.I have not seen him with respect to a pregnancy but instead for medical issues and routine check ups.Unfortunately I have had to cross paths with many people in the health profession and I have yet to meet a doctor in any area of medicine that I have had as positive an experience with. I was referred to Dr. Ziegler when I was having a health crisis and have known him now for 11 years.I have absolutely no complaints and am grateful and very thankful that he looks out for one small aspect of my health.I feel that perhaps Dr. Ziegler just likes some patients more than others.As much as this is not a helpful attribute in a doctor it is a natural one in a human being and that's the difference between him and other doctors that I've met. Thank you Dr. Ziegler.

Dr Ziegler is a great and extremely knowledgeable & caring doctor. My husband and I both love him and we enjoy his sense of humor. We were very lucky of have a beautiful second child after multiple miscarriages and Dr Z was extremly attentive and helpful during this last difficult pregnancy. We love the email system in place as we know that any concerns we hve will be responded to immediately. When Dr Ziegler feels that their may be a concern he will call to get more infos in order to assess the situation & guide you. During this last difficult pregnancy it was nice to see how Dr Ziegler was not only concerned about me but my husband also. Waiting time has never been an issue & during my appointments , all our questions hve always been answered. Dr Ziegler is surrounded by wonderful & caring staff Gilda & Bonnie. Hve to say that he is the only Dr we know which on a personal level remembers information about his patients. DR ZIEGLER is great and I would highly recommend him.

Don't ask too many questions and he feels his knowledge is being questioned! I think we have a right to ask questions that are related to our health or bodies. Listening to what Patients say in also important in the diagnosis process, but it seems that he's not a great listener. There is not much time allotted to each patient for their concerns or to get information.

I have been a patient for almost 8 years, my last appointment was cancelled a day before and rescheduled a month later. Waited 3 hours for him to see me. He was very rude to me and when I commented on the wait time he told me that I could go somewhere else if I am not happy. I took his advice.

Went there with a reference and he was a good doctor. Quick check-ups althought, but knew what he was doing. Funny, made jokes, but the waiting is long. Nice staff. He Answers your questions like it seems the building is on fire.

This doctor might be somehow knowledgable, but his ego is ruinning everything. Should be more centered to the health of babies and mothers than on his own feelings. Has bad temper and bad manners. Of course he can manage to be nice sometimes, but this is not enough.

From my personal experience and what I hear from others (patients and other doctors), Dr. Ziegler is a fantastic doctor and well respected amongst his peers. He has a great sense of humor (my husband still tells stories of our first appointment for my first pregnancy. During my last appointments, the waiting time has been approx. 1 1/2 hours, but considering that he has good beside manners, takes the time to answers your questions, and give you the reassurance many people seek from a doctors I don't mind the wait(besides, with the situation doctors find themselves these days, I wonder if 1 1/2 hours is actually good compared to others). He has a great staff-his nurse and secretary are great; very pleasant people.

Dr. Ziegler accepted a lot of patients, that's why he is always late for the appointments. Though he is humorous but he only pays little time on each patients. The worst is that even I was already 37 weeks pregnancy he still asked her secretary to let me come to him after 2 weeks! Of course I had no chance to come because I delivered my baby on 38 weeks + 6days. I spent almost 30 hours in Jewish General Hospital but he didn't show up. I remebered when I told the delivery dept that my doctor is Ziegler all of they shaked the heads and kept silent. I didn't why at that time but at last I knew I chose a wrong doctor. After delivery, I came back to have my body checked and his secretary said they didn't recept the women who alrady delivered any more and cut the phone immediately. One of my friend also had the bad impression and comment on this doctor. I will not come back to him when I am pregnant again!!!

Un exellent médecin, il est très très bon. Dommage que son comportement, ses blagues déplacées viennent tout gâcher.Pour le suivi de grossesse il prend quatre patientes par quart d'heure, soixante dans la journée ! ce qui laisse bien peu de temps pour poser des questions. En bref, il se fout des personnes et ne s'intéresse qu'aux utérus.

I had a hysterectomy Oct 2007. He is the best doctor ever. Funny, compassionate, tough on his staff. But very good to me. He deeply cares for his patients. 10 years of pain and he was the only one that listened.

Dr.Ziegler, human, loving, funny and makes you feel at ease..for those who had bad experience it could be that he was having a bad day!.he is overloaded with patients but that only proves how good he is!true he doesn't spend much time with pregnancies, but if every thing is ok, there is no need to! you should be happy.you have to understand his sense of humour..I had a c-section cause my baby was breech, he supported me and kept on checking on me..when time came. it was too late and had left home,,I asked for him and he came right away even though he was so tired his hands were shaking!he supervised! kept his promise.I never waited more than 30 min in his office except for the times he was on call!..I would see him again for my next pregnany..Love Dr. Ziegler!,just be open-minded, his job is stressful, go along with him, you'll enjoy the ride!

Absolutely horrible!!! I have gone 4 times to see this doctor, and out of those times I have only been seen twice. Never on time, and to make matters worse they make you wait for hours only to tell you that he can't see you today...

He performed surgery on me a year ago. Everything went very well and my recovery was very speedy with no complications. I only waited for surgery for a couple of months. I enjoy his sense of humour and have always been able to contact him by email.

I have been a patient for two pregnancies and he is the most amazing doctor I could ask for. He was almost always on time (never waited more than 30 minutes) and answered all my questions truthfully and tells it like it is. He is hilarious (although I'm sure his humour does not appeal to everyone) and I wouldn't want anyone else delivering my kids (even if it is only for catching). DEFINITELY recommended if you have a sense of humour and want an amazingly knowledgeable OB.

Dr.Ziegler is handsome, funny, and knows how to get the job done. He delivered three babies for my wife and I. Every visit was even more exciting than the next. He exemplifies tremendous passion for his work, and is a true friend. I must admit i am shocked by some of your comments, simply put he is the best. I would recommend him anyday of the week, all women should only be luck to have such a professional. My wife and I are glad to say that we know Dr.Ziegler, and that we have become friends over the last ten years. G-d bless you Dr.Z. Mr & Mrs CoachZ

Dr. Z. is the best. He is so funny, which makes the visit that much easier. You have to have a sense of humour though, or you will not understand him. And yes, the wait time can be dreadful, as he is unable to say no and takes on way more patients than he is able to handle... I'm one of those... I was referred to him a couple of years ago for irregular pap smears, and after he removed a pre-cancer patch from my cervix, I begged him to keep me as a patient - of course he obliged! So now when I have to wait a long time to see him, I try to remember that!

Dr Ziegler is a great person and a fantastic doctor.Not only is he funny and nice but his work is his vocation. He loves babys from the beginning.He's always there when we need him and will do that extra effort for his patients when needed. He came to deliver my second baby in the middle of a freezing friday night when he was not on call because he knew I needed him there.He's blessed with what he does and only great things can be said about this professional doctor. olivia.

After having 3 appointments in a row cancelled due to the fact that he had emergencies, and then getting pushed back another 6 months, I finally got pregnant. At 10 weeks, I had to rush to the hospital on a thursday night(I ended up at Cite de la Sante since it was close to my house) because I was hemorraging and ended up miscarrying. At the hospital, they gave me medication to help to finish expulsing the remainder of the pregnancy. On the friday morning I e-mailed Dr Z (since it is impossible to get a hold of anyone at the office) to ask if I could see him for an ultrasound to make sure everything was out and okay. His response was quick but he simply told me to go back to the hospital where I had the miscarriage. NOt very consoling for my OBGYN

This must be the meanest and heartless doctor that I have ever met. He treats his patients as dollar signs and he has no respect towards them I wouldn't even sent my worst enemy to him.

I’m a little upset with Dr. Z., I just had a miscarriage a couple of months ago… he gave me some meds to help expulse the blighted ovum, fine but when asked if I should have a follow-up ultrasound, he said “No, it should be fine”…being stubborn I decided to go to a private clinic for an ultrasound… guess what? they found some left overs!!!! So, I let him know … now rush it’ll pass, wait a couple of cycle. What!!! Oh, yeah meanwhile I got pregnant again (by surprise!)… and again I asked him what I should he said continue with the pregnancy and see you at around twelve weeks!!! It’s a wait and see game! Also, every time you call his secretary for a little info … she says to e-mail, which is fine … until you get a notice that there is now a FEE for using the e-mail service ARGH!!!!

I am actually very surprised at the large number of positive comments but he can be superficially a very charming person and I guess many people are fooled by that. He was dreadful, I still remember my experience with him with distaste and it has been over eight years. He performed what I feel was very sloppy surgery, I developed a bad infection and complications,went through a lot of suffering, and his only response was: nothing like this has ever happened to me before! He was nasty and patronizing, there was no compassion, and I of course found a different doctor for my second child.

Good doctor but needs to go to school to learn what it is like to be a WOMAN LIVING in a WOMANS BODY. I stopped seeing him as a patient years ago.

I recently lost my baby at 22 weeks. At my 19 week ultrasound I was told that I had a short cervix but because I had no pain and felt perfect up until that point that I shouldn't worry about it. Dr. Ziegler should have put me on bed rest or at least had me go for a follow up ultrasound a week or two later to monitor my cervix. Up until that point I was very happy with Ziegler, but after this failed pregnancy I could not trust him again. I guess you have to ask a lot of questions. It was my first pregnancy and I trusted my doctor. Now I know not to take anything for granted.

I had my operation on Monday, April 16th. There were some complications and Dr. Ziegler said it was a very difficult surgery. He apologized that he had made a small hole in the colon because of the many lesions I had. Another surgeon was called in the repair it. He was there following surgery and several days after to check up on me. He is a very caring, honest doctor. He also has a wonderful sense of humour that makes you feel at ease. I am happy to be home and recovering nicely.

Dr Zeigler is always available on email to answer any and all questions, some not even gynecological. He is a big help for referrals and is a great diagnostician. I wish that I could keep having babies just to keep seeing him every few weeks. It is true that there are sometimes longish waits to see him but that is because he takes the time to talk to his patients. Thanks for all your help.

Dr. Zeigler is the best. He answers all your questions and then some.But of course when you get home, you have lots more and you can email him and he will ALWAYS get back to you with the answers. He is so funny but you have to have a sense of humour back to really appreciate him. He loves people and is so busy but always takes the time to care. He is a real family man and understands a woman's needs. If only I was having more babies so I could see him more. Thank you Dr. Cleve.

I love Dr. Ziegler. He is the absolute best Dr. He is kind caring and compassionate. I used to look forward to my monthly visits with him during my 3 pregnancies. I miss those visits. He delivered 2 of my 3 sons. He was so apologetic because he wasn't there for the third....he was out of town!

Dr.Z. is the most wonderful doctor in the world. He is so funny, caring and punctual. You had to see him the show "Doctorology". He is SO knowledgable that he is even teaching my son his Bar-Mitzvah portion! He also has come to watch 3 of my four kids play hockey. Bonnie and Gilda, his secretaries, are amazing. He is always available to help and was with me for every minute of my four pregnancies. He really should consider waxing his eyebrows, though. I may not go back to him because of that.

Love him, love him, love him! Dr. Ziegler has delivered 2 of my sons by c-section. The wait time is a bummer, but it's worth it. Always remembered everything about me, like my children's names and my husband's origins... Made me feel like I was part of the family. Great sense of humor. Yes, he's busy, but he's great.

Dr. Ziegler was great throughout my pregnancy, as well as during the delivery of my son. Around the 5th month of my pregnancy, I had experienced kidney stones and he was extremely kind to come check up on me in the hospital. He's quick with email responses and helped ease a lot of my worries during the pregnancy. I would definitely choose him as my OB again.

He was my worst nightmare. He could not help in any way to keep my pregnancy and had such a BIG EGO that he didn't refer to a high risk obs. when it was necessary. I regret ever going to him. When I miscarried all he could say was only God knows why...BUT I found another Obs. that found the problem and I now have a beautiful baby girl no thanks to him. He treats his patients like he were working by the minute and through a revolving door. You're lucky if he gave me 5 minutes of his time. UGH....

Dr Z is great! Somtimes long waits for appointments, but that is the price of having your doctor operate out of a hospital and be delivering babies all the time. Very strong personality, dry sense of humor, so not the doctor for those who need major cuddling. However he is very supportive and caring in his own way. Great response time to urgent questions, he answers using his blackberry. No doubt in my mind regarding his competence, he is great!

Dr. Ziegler is definitely overworked and has too many patients, but he is highly competent, friendly, and straightforward. I don't think he's for everyone because he has a dry sense of humor and a strong personality, which could turn some off, and he definitely doesn't have time to spend more than 5 minutes per patient per regular visit. That said, I like him a lot (I find him funny), and he's VERY prompt in replying to e-mail questions. He expects you to participate in your own care but doesn't make you feel stupid when you ask questions. Also, while he doesn't spend a lot of time with routine visits, when I had a complication during my first pregnancy, my husband and I felt VERY well taken care of, and he spent the time necessary to reassure us and to make arrangements for all the appopriate care.

He's funny, like Seinfeld. His only plus. He is also rude. He is arrogant. He doesn't care if he hurts you when he checks if you are dialated - even finds it funny and tells other student dr.s there to not listen to you if you are in pain and just do it. He was around but wasn't around when I finally went into fever and needed an emergency c section. No comfort from him that's for sure. he is also very rude if youare over weight and pregnant. He's really not very nice about it. I was 40 pounds over weight, very common, and didn't have any problems related to that in my pregnancy. Except his stress.

This was my first time seeing Dr. Ziegler for a colcoscopy and the man was hilarious- right off the bat. He made me feel very comfortable and reassured me that everything was fine. Excellent doctor!

So far, 5+ months into our first pregnancy, my husband and I are very happy with him. Sure, he's busy, but he always answers questions promptly by email. You just have to come prepared to your appointments with a list of questions. It's no wonder, when you consider he is paid a ridiculous $12(!!!) per pre-natal visit.

He is a knowledgeable doctor however, he's very overloaded with patients and can't put in enough time with his consultations. My wife and I are not happy with the quality of the birth of our son because dr ziegler was again too busy to be present on time and the job was given to his backup, which she wasn't informed of my wife's medical history and cronic hypertension. If you need a knowledgeable doctor's he's the one, if you need a doctor to give you attention your wife needs he is NOT the obstetrician you need.

I like Dr. Zeigler very much, he is very fast but knows what he's doing. You can't expect a doctor in Quebec to spend any time with patients, the most disgusting system in Canada!!! These doctors are SO underpaid.
