This doctor instantly put me at my ease, was an attentive and empathetic listener. I felt that my condition would receive the best diagnosis and treatment. As I am a poor Greek speaker, unfamiliar with Greek medical terminology, his fluency in English (like a native speaker) was such that I am confident that I understood every nuance of what he was telling me, something important in medical matters. He did not suggest a costly programme of treatment, a degree of honesty some of my friends have not encountered. I would have no hesitation in recommending this doctor to others.

Εμεινα εξαιρετικά ευχαριστημένη από την πρώτη επισκεψη μου στο ιατρείο. Ασχολήθηκαν με ενδιαφέρον για το πρόβλημα στον αυχένα μου και με έκαναν να νιώσω εμπιστοσύνη. Ειναι πολύ professional. Ειμαι σίγουρη ότι με τη βοήθειά, τις γνώσεις και την υπομονή τους θα υπάρξει πολύ μεγάλη βελτίωση.
