    Dr. Tsagaris is outstanding. She's a great listener, asks terrific questions, and integrates information into a treatment plan. We are in the midst of making some medication adjustments and we discussed several options about how to proceed. She is one of the best doctors I've ever had and she and her staff respond quickly to notes in the portal.
