Overview of patient comments

Summary created using AI

Patients appreciate

Dr. Ioannis Avramis receives overwhelmingly positive feedback from patients, with the vast majority praising his exceptional surgical skills and expertise, particularly in spinal and scoliosis procedures. Patients consistently describe him as highly knowledgeable, professional, and thorough in his explanations, with many noting that he takes time to ensure they understand their condition and treatment options in layperson's terms. His bedside manner is frequently highlighted as outstanding, with reviewers characterizing him as kind, caring, compassionate, patient, and genuinely concerned about their wellbeing. Many patients report successful surgical outcomes, with several stating he "gave them their life back," eliminated chronic pain, or prevented them from needing wheelchairs. His communication style is praised for being clear, direct, and honest, and patients appreciate that he never makes them feel rushed during appointments. The entire care team, including his staff and physician assistants, also receives consistent praise for professionalism and helpfulness.

Patients also share

The primary area for improvement mentioned in reviews relates to wait times and appointment timeliness. Several patients noted experiencing long waits in the office, with some appointments running an hour or more behind schedule. A few reviews mentioned challenges with the front desk organization and difficulties getting referrals processed through the system. One patient commented on timeliness not meeting expectations despite excellent care quality. However, these concerns appear relatively infrequent compared to the volume of positive feedback, and some patients who experienced delays still expressed that the quality of care made the wait worthwhile.

Patient comments are gathered from our Press Ganey Patient Satisfaction Survey and are displayed in their entirety. Patients are de-identified for confidentiality and patient privacy.
