Dr. DO Panakos is a kind doctor who listens to what I am saying. I never have to wait longer than 5 minutes to be called back and after the nurse is finished, he is in the room in an appropriate amount of time. I'm glad I switched over to this practice. Very pleased.
Recommended here by my wife and have had nothing but positive experience! I currently see Dr Sam And him and his nurse have been so kind and respectful. The practice recently gave my wife another chance to stay at the practice after some miscommunication on appointment no shows that was my wife's fault and they still welcomed her with open arms. Please bring your family here! You don't regret it
I absolutely love Tanglewood Family Med. I’ve had the chance to see almost every provider at one time or another. They are hands down the best and really take their time and listen. I would recommend this group to anyone.
