Dr. Tedros Amanios, MD

Great doctor! Patient and knowledgeable. He's been my doctor for years and I wouldn't want it any other way.

I got some type of virus on the 10 days cruise, that left me with terrible cough ( the worst in my live. I am 71 year old) , heavy chest and nose congestion, mucus in my eyes, that I never experienced before. Two days into the infection I completely lost my voice. After 4 or 5 days I thought, I was recovering, when everything started all over again. (Four days after coming home I am still not well). I was afraid of possible complications. Got appointment with this doctor. He honestly wrote down all my complains, said that it can be a virus that they don't treat and possibly, the whole thing was just the allergic reaction, and the cough is just from dripping from my nose. He prescribed Benzonatate, that 61% of people have found useless, advised some over the counter drops and that was that. I also had high blood pressure that he didn't address at all. They swabbed my nose and throat and said everything is OK. 30 Minutes after the visit I had a cough spell that I thought might die

This doctor refused to give me an RX for a glucose monitoring device even though my AIC is 7.15 I’ve had it a year before with my previous doctor who left. Dr said it’s only given to uncontrolled insulin patients. My wife called the continuous glucose monitoring manufacture, directly and the said it’s used for pre-diabetes and even hyperglycemia. We continuously states we would go outside of Kaiser and pay for the device OUT OF POCKET BUT IT DIDN’T MATTER TO DR. AMANIOS! I work 10 hours a day so blood sticks are not practical. Myself and my wife said this will help me monitor my glucose and provide quality of life care for myself. He not only denied me but states abruptly and with a bit of a temper “WE ARE DONE!”We respectfully said thank you, have a nice day. Myself and my wife just do not understand why this doctor is not there to help patients? His communication skills are a ZERO! I immediately changed doctors and considering filing a grievance with Kaiser about this doctor.

Unhelpful. Practicing medicine from the 1980s.

Caring for me for 7 years. Undoubtedly the best personal physician I have had in my 54 years.
