5Patient Review
Dr. Assimos and his team are outstanding. He removed a kidney stone for me in 2018 and was very patient in answering all my questions. The recent telehealth visits have been great as well — on time and efficient. Nurse Harvey is extremely responsive and helpful. Both Assimos and Harvey gave me their cell numbers for emergencies, which is rare these days. I highly recommend him and his team.
