Reviews
Dr Vamvakopoulos has time for you. He listens to what you say, and is friendly. He takes time to read your notes, and gives you his full attention.
I thought this doctor told me everything I needed to know in a very calm manner. I feel I have never been treated so well and was extremely pleased with the care given to me at my appointment.
very easy to talk to, listens and replies with helpful advise, very compasionate regarding any issues i have, wants to do the right thing for me
Dr Vamvacopolous pays attention to what you are saying and acts accordingly and professionally. If it hadn't been for Dr Vs input I think I would have transferred my care to another hospital. Top Doctor and also a decent man.
