From the Doctor
I was 11 years old when I decided to become a doctor. Besides my wife, the practice of medicine has been the greatest love and experience of my life. I thank God for the opportunity to serve and pray that I can continue to minister to people's needs for many more years.
After all, the bond between patient and doctor is very unique. Patients give us the privilege of knowing the most intimate details of their lives—this is truly a sacred trust!
In addition to working with my patients, I enjoy volunteering for the Boy Scouts and the Bob Tebow ministries, and I'm active in my Greek Orthodox church. My wife and I have been married 40 years. We have four children and three grandchildren, and we first moved to Jacksonville in 1975.
