      The doctor is amazing thorough, listens, gives feedback and then her ideas, diagnosis. She is amazing. She makes the patient feel comfortable and confident with her practice. She tries to get to know the entire patient not just the problem presenting itself so she can give the best advice and a personalized plan. Probably one of my daughter's best doctors ever.

      Dr. Kokorelis was wonderful. She listened and ask thoughtful questions and explained things well. I didn't feel looked down on or like I was being rushed out. She did apologize to me for the late start both at the beginning of our appointment and again at the end. I always expect doctors to run behind schedule but I can't remember another who apologized for it.

      Dr. Kokorelis was patient, empathetic, professional, and caring. She took the time to really listen to me and acknowledge how difficult my health has been. She gave me recommendations, referrals, and medication, and also made me a part of the discussion and clearly explaining all concepts and answering all of my questions.
