Dr. Evangelia Papadouris

If you are reading this and looking for a paediatrician in the area, know that this is and will be the best doctor you will find. I now totally understand why people would wait long times to see this doctor. Dr. Papadoris is hands down the best paediatrician I have ever seen/ heard of. She truly has the magic touch. My baby loved to see her and she made vaccinations painless. She picked up on important health problems that would have otherwise been ignored, and caught them early on so they could be managed easily. As for the wait time if you book your appointment for first thing in the morning when the office opens (~7:30 am) there will be no line up or wait time. The front desk staff are so lovely and try to accommodate everyone. The doctor is very efficient too, they just have way too many patients to manage every day. Dr. Papadoris is so good that I kept her as my daughter’s doctor even when we moved away from downtown, but the commute to the office was too hard and eventually we had to find a new doctor. If it weren’t for the commute I would still happily wait around for my daughter to be seen by this amazing doctor. She really is exceptional.

I took my daughter here since they were born for 5 years now.I was introduced to here from a new mom and also introduce to other new mom later after I gained the best pediatrician experience from here.Dr.Papadouris is very patient and professional pediatrician.She comforts us a lot when we experienced some problem with the kids.She works as early as 7 am ,and can get contacted through telephone as late as 6pm.I was surprised how many hours she worked per day.Wish her good health.

Dr. Papadouris is one of a kind. Yes, you will wait, yes it is an old school office (right out of a time capsule) and yes it can feel like you are unable to establish a warm and fuzzy relationship, which a new Mom may need. HOWEVER, her knowledge (based on experience not a google search) coupled with quality of care and connections to specialists if necessary, are impeccable. Most importantly, if your baby/child is sick and you call in last minute, she will fit you in and won’t make you feel like you are even remotely wasting an ounce of her time. I have 3 kids under 6 and I have called into previous doctors and they have displayed little empathy, even as babies, indicating appointments are booked out 1, 2, and even 3 weeks. I have had to stand my ground for them to be seen (an no it was urgent enough to take up time in an emergency room but also something that could not wait weeks either). To say I am impressed with her level of commitment to her young patients is an understatement. I’ll take the old school approach over technology any day.

Dr. Papadouris had been our children’s doctor for 19 years and she had been a god-sent gift for our family. We said our good byes over last summer as it was time for my youngest to move onto adulthood. Dr. Papadouris mentioned that her office will be moving this year to a new location but didn’t know when. I happened to be in the area and went up to the office to say hello and the office next door mentioned that her office had just moved out. I felt sad that this location will no longer be the same without the hustle and bustle of infants to teens patients coming and going. I just would like to wish her and her staff all the best in their new home. We had been extremely fortunate to have had her care for our children. She’s one in a million and God bless her! - S
