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. Roussis is so incredibly caring and an amazing doctor.. he explains everything in detail and makes sure you understand everything as well.. he is a comforter and makes you feel like family.. I absolutely love Dr Roussis

I had such a wonderful experience with Dr. Roussis! After experiencing numerous complications early on in my pregnancy, I was referred to Dr. Roussis. He helped to set realistic expectations and gave my husband and I peace of mind. I believe I received the best possible care from Dr. Roussis, and I will definitely go back to him for future pregnancies.

Great listener and thorough in explaining reasons behind recommendations. Truly tried to take in consideration my wishes during childbirth and explained why I needed to receive a c-section when things did not progress any further. My son is happy and healthy & so am I.

Dr. Roussis has been my doctor through two high risk pregnancies and a miscarriage. I cannot say enough how highly I recommend him and the staff at Fort Sanders Perinatal Center. He is extremely knowledgeable while still maintaining a warm bedside manner. He is honest but kind. He remembers his patients and is very personable. He is exactly who you want helping you through whatever pregnancy may throw at you.

Dr. Roussis and all of the other physicians & staff at the Fort Sanders Perinatal Center could not have given us better care in our pregnancy. They are very thorough and thoughtful & listen to all of your concerns as a patient. Dr. Roussis cared for us as if we were his own family member and we became close with the staff towards the end of the pregnancy. I’m grateful to have met this group and am sad I won’t be visiting them any longer since my pregnancy is over!

Dr. Roussis is an amazing doctor that saved my baby's life. I was in the hospital for a standard induction when an emergency c-section was required due to an umbilical cord prolapse. Dr. Roussis and Dr. Andrade jumped into action along with all of the staff at Ft. Sanders and they saved my baby and delivered a healthy baby boy with no complications. They were very professional and compassionate and made me at ease during a difficult situation. I thank God they were my doctors.

Dr. Roussis is an exceptional doctor. He is very knowledgeable and wants to make sure his patients understands what is going on. He is easy to talk to and will let you ask as many questions as you want to along with encouraging you to call anytime you feel the need to. I found that the office is very willing to work with you on your regular appointments and also if you need to be worked in at any point. I would highly recommend Dr. Roussis and the rest of the staff at the Perinatal Center.

I was referred to Dr. Roussis's office after my old doctor would not see me with my early pregnancy. I was overwhelmingly happy with his team during my latest pregnancy. I was high risk for gestational diabetes, age, and possible genetic disabilities for my unborn child. I was given the up most care and even when hormones were raging and worry took over, the kindness Dr. Roussis and Dr. Stephens gave me will last forever.

A great doctor... very caring and very concerned for his patients’ well being. I would recommend his office to any pregnant ladies (Fort Sanders Perinatal Center). They did such a great job delivering my son and daughter and prevented all of the mistakes that UT Hospital made with my first daughter.

Dr. Roussis took over my care after my baby started falling behind on growth at 20 weeks. He made a very scary situation easier to handle and was extremely reassuring throughout the entire pregnancy. I would recommend him to any of my friends. In fact all of the doctors at Fort Sanders Perinatal Center were amazing.

Dr Rousis was so wonderful. My husband and I could not have been happier with him as our doctor. I had 4 miscarriages and 3 being back to back. He made us feel at ease and took such great care of me up until delivery. I could not have had a more caring and knowledgable physician. I highly recommend him and Dr Stephens if you have ever experienced any sort of issues currently or in the past. My only issue is now that i have delivered my beautiful and healthy baby girl is i no longer see him. :-(

Unreal care. Very knowledgeable. I felt like a family member to the team here. As soon as I sat down at each appointment, I was immediately hearing my name to go on back. I saw a nurse practitioner & the doctor at every single appointment. They kept a close eye on me and always made sure I understood everything. I really trusted these doctors (Roussis and Stephens). I have a healthy baby (after 3 pregnancy losses) due to them! 55 ultrasound pictures too from how closely they liked to watch him.
