Ασχολήθηκε σχολαστικά με το πρόβλημα μου και αρκετή ώρα πανω απο ώρα,και είδε ολο το ιστορικό μου με τις 5 αξονικες που προσκόμισα διαφόρων ετων,και ύστερα απο σχολαστικη κλινική εξέταση και την σπιρομετρηση που εκανα μου έδωσε να καταλάβω τι ακριβώς αντιμετωπίζω και την θεραπεία που πρέπει να ακολουθήσω, νοιώθω πως ειμαι τυχερός για την επιλογή μου διότι πηγα πρώτη φορά και έμεινα αρκετά ικανοποιημένος.Τον συνιστώ ανεπιφύλακτα.

Εξαιρετικός γιατρός και ζεστός άνθρωπος! Ανέλυσε σε βάθος όλα τα δεδομένα των εξετάσεων και έκανε λεπτομερή κλινική εξέταση. Πήρε όλο τον χρόνο για να μου πάρει λεπτομερές ιστορικό και να μου δώσει εξηγήσεις και κατευθυντήριες ολιστικές οδηγίες, κάτι που δικαιολογεί απολύτως τυχόν μικρές καθυστερήσεις στα ραντεβού. Κέρδισε την εμπιστοσύνη μου ως γιατρός και την εκτίμησή μου ως άνθρωπος. Τον ευχαριστώ θερμά!
