Εξαιρετικός επιστήμονας και άνθρωπος. Από την πρώτη στιγμή σου εμπνέει εμπιστοσύνη, καθώς είναι ιδιαίτερα αναλυτικός και σου εξηγεί με σαφήνεια όλες τις επιλογές σου, προτείνοντας τις πιο κατάλληλες λύσεις για την περίπτωσή σου. Ξεχωρίζει για την ανθρώπινη προσέγγιση και το πραγματικό ενδιαφέρον που δείχνει για τον ασθενή, κάτι που σπανίζει. Παράλληλα, οι τιμές του είναι απόλυτα λογικές σε σχέση με το επίπεδο των υπηρεσιών που προσφέρει. Τον συστήνω ανεπιφύλακτα.

Answers to patient questions

  • Spinal stenosis

    I was diagnosed with lumbar stenosis, arthrosis and 3 bulging hernias one year ago. With manual therapy and when needed Panadol and Arcoxia 90mg I was able to move reasonably freely again after a few difficult months. Until I sneezed this morning!!! Suddenly I can hardly walk and am again in a lot of pain, I took 2 Panadol 500mg and 1 Arcoxia 90mg. Pain now is only a bit less, walking is difficult without help and painful, I can't stand straight... What to do? Lay down or try to keep moving? And can I replace the Panadol/Arcoxia with Medrol 16mg tomorrow?

    • If the problem is just low back pain , rest and painkillers will be all you need.
      If you feel any numbness or tingling running down your leg (which might mean sciatic nerve irritation), then the best thing to do is to start Μedrol (corticosteroids) and contact your doctor

  • Αρθροσκόπηση γόνατος

    Καλησπέρα σας, Είναι 6η μέρα μετά από χειρουργείο ρήξης χιαστού και το αγόρι μου έχει πυρετό 37.5 είναι φυσιολογικό; Ανεβοκατεβαίνει αυτές τις μέρες αλλά το μέγιστο είναι 37,5 που έχει φτάσει.

    • Δε θεωρείται πυρετός
      Αν συνεχίσει ή ανησυχεί , να μιλήσει με το χειρουργό του
