Dr. Poulos is always informed and aware of patient history and conditions. She's open to all questions regarding medical treatment and care. Polite, cordial, attentive, good sense of humor. She addressed the situation with my thumb and made a quick referral to Orthopedics. She also answered a few other health related questions. Much appreciated.
