wouldn't look at any info, med. reports, took me off meds. I was on for over 10 yrs, the first day i seen him, 3 interns, his obnoxious assoc., asking the nurse interns questions instead of me, Papanos were not good with each other, after he received phycologist evaluation (that he sent me to) then he feared, he's so unintellegant, and appt. at 11:00 a.m. waiting, then a delivery man comes through with a box of food, and fat man leaves you sitting while he stuffs his fat ugly face! The very worst doc. ever, never checked me, all he wants is money so he can buy bigger, thicker gold necklace and braclet, i guess they don't make doc. smocks large enough! papanos NO were not good with each other!l

Very bad bedside manor. Uses foreign graduates to examine patients which is illegal. Long waiting time. Spend time talking to phone while in the room. No time for the patient. In and out. Please stay away.
