Dr Kalonaros strength starts with his experience and strong listening skills. This allows him to have a meaningful dialogue around any issue and bring a wholistic perspective to the conversation. His caring, commitment and level of engagement make him a valued partner in my health care.
When I retired I had a number of health issues that Dr Kalonaros put in perspective and provided me… See more
A patient should always be able to say that they have confidence, trust and respect in their physicians medical advice. A few years ago my mother, also a MDVIP member, celebrated her 90th birthday. We had a large party for her, and Dr. Kalonaros was invited. My Mother had a wonderful time and even danced with all the men, including Dr. Kalonaros, who attended. Two days later she had… See more
My family have been patients of DR Kalonaros since the early 80"s. He is very personable and never rushes you out of the office. Our families range in ages of 18 years to 83 years of age, with my Dad being the oldest. Dad was a heavy smoker and has had 2 bouts with lung cancer. The last bout, they gave him heavy duty radiation, which knocked him for a loop. After his round"s with… See more
Hello,
I was having severe palpitations and went for an office visit. Dr. Kalonaros took an EKG. He did not like the results. He immediately referred me to Dr. Balveen Singh a cardiologist. Dr Singh ordered another EKG, Cardiovascular stress test with dye, Echo cardiogram and a Halter monitor. Upon the results of my tests I was sent to Dr. Pappas at St. Francis Hospital in which he… See more
When I moved to Long Island from Manhattan, I knew I would need to find a new doctor. Personality and a sense of caring was something i wanted in a new doctor. However, Doctor-shopping was not something I looked forward to. After all, how do you interview doctors? What questions do you ask when you want to determine is if you and your new doctor will get along? My friend suggested that i… See more
Being north of 60 years old now, I have had my share of experiences with doctors, even going back to (when I was a child) where they made house calls.
Doctor Kalanorous was referred to me by a neighbor when I first moved to the area in 2001 ish. After changing jobs and insurance and him joining MDVIP, I moved to another practice, and then another. Although these were highly recommended… See more
I have been a member of MDVIP for at least 15 years. It is such a great experience to be able to spend an hour with a doctor discussing your health and
life style. The doctor gets to know you and recommends other specialists to make sure your in good health. eyes, heart, melanoma, ---I highly recommend MDVIP if you can afford.
I had used Dr Kalanaros prior to him joining MDVIP and when he joined my old plan would not cover it and I didn't have the resources.
I went thru 3 supposedly top Doctors here in LI and none compared to Dr K. He is one of the most professional and passionate medical doctors I have ever met.
Both MDVIP and my wife and I am lucky to have him.
I was once 410#. I only would see a doctor in an emergency because my experience with the medical community was very degrading. Everything I sought treatment for was somehow caused by my weight. I was disrespected and considered myself to have been a person who suffered from supervised neglect. I met Dr Kalonaros after I had begun my gastric bypass journey. I finally had a physician who… See more
Today is my 68th birthday. Thanks for you efforts on my behalf.
