Patient Reviews
Jun 07, 2024
I have see Dr. Karakousis many times now and each time I just felt he really cared about me. He treats the person and not just the disease. He never leaves the room until he knows you fully understand what the next steps are and why they are being done. He will go over all aspects of the procedure you will have and takes time to answer all of your questions. I feel very calm in his presence. He just removes all your fears.
