He is so patient and kind. He lets you know that it might take awhile but with working with him and physical therapy you will return to your better self.
He’s the best! Gives clear explanations of procedures with a personable, professional “bedside manner.”
Please let dr Vezeridis know, I had immediate results.
Polite, punctual with direct answers to my questions, Very effective in explaining complex conditions. A polished professional with empathy for the patient. I highly recommend Dr. V

Nice doctor
Excellent diagnostician and patient friendly.
Easy to talk to and very knowledgeable and patient
I feel very fortunate that Dr. Vereridis was my physician. He's easily the best Doctor I've ever been seen by.
My appt. was wth him, but his PA saw me, explained options and gave me a shot. The dr. came in afterwards and just asked if i had any questions. Maybe, the appt. should be with the PA since there was very little interaction with the dr.
