What Are Dental Professionals Saying:

"Without a doubt, the greatest benefit to moving my IT services to Dental HIPAA & IT's managed service program is the peace of mind I now have in knowing that my computer network is protected against unwanted intrusions, and that I am always HIPAA compliant. I appreciate how quick Dental HIPAA & IT is able to respond to issues at my office

Should prospective clients meet with John, they will realize that he is sincere about supporting their practices and that he delivers the outstanding service that he promises."

Robert J. Bey, D.D.S., 8787 Complex Drive, Ste. 100, San Diego, CA 92123

"The single biggest benefit to you and your company since moving to Dental HIPAA & IT is time. Before hiring John, I thought of myself as being competent when it came to IT and ran my own IT, fixing issues as they came up. As my practice grew, so did my IT burden, and I could no longer focus on dentistry. My team became frustrated and burdened with inefficiencies. I would often stay after work to fix software and hardware issues. Since hiring John, I have been able to spend more time fixing smiles and less time fixing IT issues."

Drew Addy D.D.S, Carlsbad Beach Dental, 2879 Hope Ave, Carlsbad, CA 92008

"I am writing this because, like many dentists, I have been disappointed by many IT companies in the past—whether it be poor response time to a major problem or just poor customer service. Most recently, I have been working with Mr. John Zanazzi, who is not only an IT wiz but also an expert in medical HIPAA compliance. I was extremely excited when I met him because my former IT companies had little knowledge of anything more than basic HIPAA compliance, and I discovered a gap between my non-related IT compliance and general computer/tech support."

Tina M. Beck, D.D.S., M.S. Diplomat, American Board of Periodontology, President of the San Diego Dental Society

"Dental HIPAA & IT has been a wonderful asset to our practice. John was first referred to us by another dental practice for our HIPAA needs. He helped us develop our HIPAA policy and provided our training, which he continues to do. After working with him and seeing how reliable and knowledgeable he is, we decided to retain him as our IT specialist as well.

We are grateful we found John for our HIPAA and IT needs and would highly recommend his services to any dental or medical practice. He is extremely knowledgeable, professional, reliable, friendly, and easy to work with. "
