Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Tachopoulou is the best. I wish she was my pcp. Whenever I go in for my visits, she is always timely and in the moment.

I have found her to be a bit abrupt during appointments and she doesn't appear to be listening. She spends her time on her laptop so if she is listening to me, it is hard to tell because she's not really looking at me while I'm speaking. I will continue to see her because my time with her is a temporary situation and my lung infection is non-life threatening.

Rude. She is too self absorbed to listen to the patient. She also does not believe what you have to say even with medical records backing you up. Has absolutely no bedside manners and had to get the supervisor in to handle her abrasiveness.

My wife and I had an extremely poorly handled case which required additional visits to the ER because of negligent behavior at the hospital however, Dr Tachopoulou was very thorough and patient with us. She took extra time to explain our case in detail and was caring and thoughtful in her interaction with us. She did additional legwork and research to identify and treat an extremely rare side effect during a routine return "nurse visit" and is a pleasant person and competent provider.

Dr. Tachopoulou has always greeted be kindly and with professional courtesy and manner. She is knowledgeable of her craft and is always willing to discuss diagnosis and treatment options. Dr. Tachopoulou is a take charge person, however, and is willing to move ahead quickly with needed tests and further appointments or needs. Wait times on appointments are reasonable when scheduled in advance.

Received no help from her regarding my health issue. She is passing me off to another specialist. Too influenced by her view of herself as "The Doctor" and her experiences out of country (TB is rampant in Peru therefore you might have TB, too).

I was referred to Dr tachopoulou during cancer treatment and she was awesome. She always did her homework prior to my appointment. She thoroughly researched my case to get to the bottom of what was going on and for that I was very thankful
