Matters

Empowering Your Journey to Wellness with Compassionate Care and Expert Guidance.

WELCOME

My approach to both mental and physical suffering is different; by merging biomedical knowledge and trauma-informed psychotherapeutic care, I provide holistic care to help you through issues like chronic pain, depression, anxiety, insomnia, and help you navigate the burden of advanced and even terminal illness. My goal is to relieve suffering, increase agency and offer dignity, by way of compassionate thorough care; fulfilling both the role of the prescriber, and the counselor. 

AREAS OF FOCUS

I'm dedicated to providing holistic, patient-centered care, to adults suffering from either emotional or physical ailment.

Empowering your journey through compassionate trauma informed care focused on mental health, chronic pain management, substance & medication dependency recovery, and end-of-life support.

Dr. Z was my doctor before he was my therapist. He introduced IFS to me in 2022 and has helped me in more ways than I could possibly count. He is compassionate, understanding and extremely patient. He throws himself into his work and never puts things off. He truly loves helping people and I believe that is key to a good therapist and doctor.

Client Testimonials

"Dr. Z was my doctor before he was my therapist. He introduced IFS to me in 2022 and has helped me in more ways than I could possibly count. He is compassionate, understanding and extremely patient. He throws himself into his work and never puts things off. He truly loves helping people and I believe that is key to a good therapist and doctor."
"Dr. Zanartu is one of the most professional and knowledgeable doctors I have ever had. He is both professional while caring and I always finished my appointments feeling a lot better than when they started. I could not have gotten through my treatment without him."
"From the first introductory phone call, I knew we had a great partner in the care for my father.  Dr. Zanartu listened carefully to all our concerns and explained every treatment suggestion and disease progress.  He always brought a smile to my father's face, and we had great confidence in the care he provided."
"I am a multiple cancer patient complicated by Parkinson's Disease.  I have been working with Cristian Zanartu  for more than three years now as I have aimed at living as comfortable and normal a daily life as I have been able - faced with symptoms from my diseases and from side effects from multiple drug therapies.Dr Zanartu (Z) is nothing short of amazing. 

I have been a physician in practice myself for 50 years and know how hard it is to provide the kind of attentive and compassionate care that Z provides, and I stand in awe of his ability to do this with care and attention to detail for his patients. 

There is no one that i would rather have treating me for pain and discomfort and no one whose frank and straightforward advice I hold in higher regard.  if you need palliative care and support - Cristian Zanartu is as good as it gets and is recommended with as much enthusiasm as possible.  Working with him is a gift - if you can - give yourself that gift - you won't ever regret it."
"In a medical world filled with doctors who churn you in and out, Dr Z. Is a bright light when needed most. His kindness and compassion for his patients are equaled by his knowledge of medicine and most importantly his understanding of people.

My wife has been under his care for over a year and a half, and there is no question that Dr Z.has been a major contributor to helping her on her journey. As difficult as it’s been, Dr Z has provided something I’ve never seen in a physician, which is actual love for those under his care and their families."
"Dr. Zanartu took brilliant, gentle, and careful care of my best friend Marlena in the last months of her life. He weaned her from her addictions to antiquated drugs and prescribed more efficient medications. He stayed close and always immediately answered my requests for help. He was an absolute bulwark at a time when her other doctors were too busy to answer her cries for help. He treated her with honesty but also with hope of an easier journey.  I am very grateful and would trust him with my life.  Truly."
"Although we never met in person, Dr. Z  was our biggest support of care. He advised us of what was best for Dad’s pain and showed compassionate understanding of how to make my Dad’s quality of life stronger. We are saddened by losing him as our Doctor. I am also grateful for the  communication via email or telephone. I never waited for a response. The Blood and Cancer Specialist team have been blessed with Dr. Z. and anyone that Dr . Z treats will be highly satisfied. Lisa -Charles’ daughter"
"We met Dr. Zanartu in a very painful period in our lives, husband having stage four cancer.  Dr. Zanartu’s intelligent , empathetic, mindful approach helped us find clarity in our storm.  His insight and treatment is of the highest order. His ability to connect with me and my husband remains unparalleled."
"My experience with Dr. Zanartu was exemplary.  He was kind, spoke to me in layman's terms when needed, helpful with prescribed care, joyful in  his approach.  In other words, I knew he knew what he was talking about.  His kindness showed through.  My husband & I wish him the very best.  Wherever he lands, the recipients will be in good hands."
"Dr. Zanartu has been my palliative care doctor since I was first diagnosed. I was immediately taken by his openness and willingness to discuss every aspect of my illness. He has patiently guided me through tough moments to help me understand my diagnosis from managing a chronic illness, pharmaceutical choices, pain management and end-of-life information. 

Dr. Z is imaginative, creative, insightful and exceptionally warm. His kind personality put me at ease from our very first interaction."
