After 36 years of providing excellent orthopaedic medical care, it is with mixed emotions that we announce the retirement of Alabama Orthopaedic Clinic surgeon, Robert J. Zarzour, MD.  As a beacon of patient centered care, Dr. Zarzour has been an integral part of our practice and will always be valued and respected.  His hard work, total patient commitment, and heart-felt dedication are worthy of great admiration.  Dr. Zarzour was one of the 3 original founding physicians of AOC and a driving force behind developing our current Outpatient Orthopaedic Center.

There is no doubt that Dr. Zarzour will be missed by the staff that he has worked so closely with, by the entire AOC family and especially by his patients.  He was the surgeon who was always present, truly cared and provided exceptional medical treatment to his patients over the years.

At this time, you usually say, “It will be hard to fill his shoes.”  However, we at AOC are excited to announce the arrival of another Zarzour to the AOC family.  In the summer of 2017, we at AOC will be proud to welcome that Dr. Grant Zarzour, who will be joining our practice as a Fellowship trained total joint surgeon

While it is hard to say good bye to Dr. Zarzour, it helps to know that another Zarzour arrival is just around the corner.

Thank you Dr. Zarzour for showing us at AOC, your patients and your community what a true gentleman looks like.
