Dr. Protopapas MD (Dr. P) is a wonder doctor. He takes time to listen to your concerns. He makes sure you understand what is going on i.e. educates you. He takes ever measure to help you get better. When I was going through a "flare up" over a weekend, he took the time to follow-up to see how I was doing. Even when your in pain, he can make you smile with his positive and charismatic attitude. I highly recommend Dr. P!!!!
