I would definitely choose and recommend Dr. Pappas. He is a very patient person who listens to and answers all of my questions. The thing I like most about Dr. Pappas is that he will get in touch with me for test results in the evening and even on Saturdays. I appreciate that!

Dr. Pappas is an excellent, thorough and caring physician. He takes the time with his patients to explain, in detail, their care plan, problems and solutions. He is great also when you are in the hospital because he goes over your test results in detail with you and answers any and all questions thoroughly and patiently. He's a great person and doctor.
