Dr. Vezeridis is a very kind and compassionate dr! He is very knowledgeable and thorough, he took the time to go over my concerns and options. I never felt rushed or pressured to do anything. I would recommend him to everyone. Thank you!
Dr. Vezeridis is kind and knowledgeable--an exceptional combination in a surgeon.
Gave me plenty of time and I trust his judgement.
Nothing.to say but.good things.
He’s the most important doctor in my life. He’s the best around this area for sure. Recommended by Dr. Stefanie Rouselle-DePaul, as one of the finest Orthopedic doctors in Mass. Even his PA, Nurses, staff are the best around:)
Kind and professional
Very good experience.
Great urgent and professional. I had a knee surgery and felt no pain whatsoever after the surgery. I was able to walk the following day without crutches and after 10 day went to work. I would strongly recommend Dr Vezeridis. Thank you 🙏
I saw Dr. Vezeridis the same day I called for an appointment. I was so happy to be seen immediately as I was experiencing severe debilitating pain. He was kind and professional but above all else he was able to treat my condition and I left Excel Orthopedics in a much better state than when I arrived. To say that I am grateful would be an understatement. I highly recommend Dr. Vezeridis and Excel Orthopedics.
Patient, took time to explain the issues, understanding
