November 08, 2024EXTERNAL SITEPlease inform both parents. Just because you see the child along with the narcissistic parent, doesn't mean you shouldn't inform the normal parent of what's happening. The complete lack of wherewithal and professionalism involved with matters concerning split households is concerning.
October 08, 2024EXTERNAL SITEDr Nikki is the kindest doctor I've ever had. She has made my transition journey a million times easier than I ever expected. She is not only an amazing doctor, but an incredible advocate. I can't think of any reason I wouldn't recommend her!
June 07, 2024EXTERNAL SITEDr Milhalopoulos is a kind, caring doctor. She listened and answered our questions. We didn't feel rushed during our visit. She went above and beyond to offer the absolute best care to my daughter.
June 01, 2024EXTERNAL SITEWonderful and interesting conversation while remaining on topic. Did an amazing job validating not only my issues but also who I was as a person. Being not so well-versed in many subjects of life, I was very delighted to have a caring and informative professional who, despite the simple exchange, gave me encouragement to live a little bit more free.
April 19, 2024EXTERNAL SITEWe appreciate Dr. Nikki so much! It's very obvious she cares for her patients and is knowledgeable in her field and in the latest developments in care and medications. I only wish we'd found her sooner!
February 21, 2023EXTERNAL SITEExcellent physician and NP. They really listened to my daughter and showed general concern for how she was feeling.

February 11, 2023EXTERNAL SITEI am not sure if I have ever worked with a more kind and patient doctor, the time she spent with us and rapport she was able to build in such a short time with our child is unheard of, she is absolutely exceptional at her job, and we could not have asked for a better interaction. I am a nurse and work with a lot of physicians, but this interaction was beyond any expectations I could have had. We were so very grateful for her support.
