I feel so supported by Dr Tsiktsiris. I knew in my first appointment that he was the doctor who would help me get through this arthritis situation. He has been so careful and concerned. He pays attention to previous details of the care I received in Palm Springs. He has helped me through the tapering I needed to do to tatto get off the steroids. He was very careful to make sure my lab work was supporting the tapering. I am so grateful for his help!
-
Never feel rushed, always attentive, explains everything including options
-
Dr Tsiktsiris has reviewed my records before he came in the room and was very prepared
-
He didn't seem like he wanted to be there. He spoke incredibly fast and at times was hard to understand. It felt like he complained at times about how my labs were old, or that he sees so many people with the same test being referred but it's often nothing. Made me feel like a waste of time.
-
I hope no other patient has the same experience as I did with Dr. Louie Tsiktsiris. 25% of my visit was spent going over my medical record and the other 75% was spent with him focused on statistical results of my test emphasizing that I should be happy with my results because according to him, he would be as well if those were the results of his many other patients. He also implied that my upcoming neurology appointment was unnecessary, along with the bloodwork my primary doctor ordered for me. I left feeling invalidated, unheard, and discouraged from pursuing further medical treatment.
-

When I visited Doctor Kepler in April, her office staff was able to connect my California MyChart to the Optum chart here in Washington. It was wonderful that my records and test results could transfer to Washington! It was so helpful that Dr. Kepler at the Stanwood Optum and Doctor Tsiktsiris had My record records on their screen.
-
He took great concern in what was going on and took time explaining treatment, what the plan was with more testing to find diagnosis. Doctor is very knowledgable and very caring. My wife and I really liked him. Very excellent doctor.
