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.

I had a procedure done by Dr. Mavrelis and I would recommend him 100%. He is very understanding and puts you at ease at a time when you are so nervous about having the procedure. Thank you Dr. Mavrelis!

I was scared to death to see Dr. Mavrelis, but he put me right at ease. I was having trouble swallowing. He wanted to do an endoscopy which terrified me. I saw him on a Friday and he scheduled it for the next day. I said, “You work on Saturdays? “. He said, “ I’m on call. What else do I have to do?” I had the endoscopy the next morning. He saw I had and eroded esophagus and widened it during the procedure. It was quick and painless and I had no need to worry. Dr. M is easy to talk to.

If you want someone to mask your issues then to see this doctor.So sad how doctors don't try to find the underlying issue.I have a hiatal hernia and gallbladder stones.They gave me meds for a whole year and I told them they weren't working.They insisted i keep taking them.I continued to get sicker and sicker now I can't even drink water.I called today to let them know and they say oh it's your gallbladder you need to find a surgeon and have it removed.All this time they said it was the hernia!

I am sure Dr. Mavrelis is a competent physician and surgeon. However either due to their business model, pressure from the insurance companies, or other factors; my overall experience was one that did not leave me with a feeling of confidence in the procedure performed. Neither were my questions answered. I was given the bare minimum of time. Their center operates more like a factory assembly line, where you are just another part being fed through the conveyor. And then send out those bills
