About me

Philosophy of care

"My goal is to provide the best care possible based on the most up-to-date information the medical field has to offer. I enjoy taking care of families and building relationships with patients of all ages. Because everyone is unique, I work with patients to create care plans that fit their individual needs, not just a one-size-fits-all solution. I am dedicated to supporting patients through routine check-ups, management of chronic conditions and questions about overall health and well-being."

Was my initial meeting with Garekis. It went well enough to encourage my spouse to reschedule with him.

Great services were provided. Dr. Garekis was patient, knowledgeable, and had great Interpersonal skills. He spent the time to review my injury and explained his thoughts in an understandable manner. I appreciated his care. An excellent experience.

I'd rather wait in the waiting room instead of waiting in the exam room. When I get called, I shouldn't have to wait another 20 minutes or so in the exam room. Thank you for your help and kindness.

The receptionist was fantastic as she set me up with Dr G for my appointment after my arrival for a med check on the incorrect day. Dr G was outstanding.

Very good care at this provider location and ProHealthcare Medical group, and paired with MyChart I can ask question online too (and even upload a photo in case of physical injury, and doctor(s) and nurse(s) can give insight or suggest making appointment visit.

My new primary was on point, polite, and understanding with my current health conditions. Other than a single rude receptionist, and a few unneeded count backwards by seven questions, the primary doctor part was promising...

This was a new doctor visit to establish care since my doctor retired this summer. I was very pleased with Dr. Garekis.
