Dr. Andrikopoulou is amazing! She's so incredibly smart, caring , considerate, and very well informed. I love my cardiologist! Seriously, she changed my life, and I wish I convey that to her ! She is a fantastic listener, and remembers such small details from previous visits up to 6 months or more previously. Incredible woman .. Hands down my favorite!
