Dr Yannis was once again brilliant! He assessed our 4 month old thoroughly, and answered all our questions. He was professional and at the same time kind and warm, and very reassuring. We felt we are in great hands. We will be coming back for our check ups.

It was a very easy and smooth experience — I made my booking and payment online, so I didn’t need to call the clinic at all. Everything was perfectly handled online, and I even received my invoice right after booking. I met Dr. Yiannis for the first time, and he was incredibly kind and patient with my son. The whole experience was very positive — the doctor’s office is lovely, well equipped with toys for my 2-year-old, and the assistant was also very kind. I’m really glad we found him!
