About me

Philosophy of care

"I treat every patient with the same compassion and respect that I would if they were a member of my own family. My approach to care is collaborative and inclusive of a patient's entire care team including his or her primary care physician and other specialists.

Dr. Rekkas made me feel heard. The issues after my triple bypass and check up CT scan scared me. Dr. Rekkas explained everything and made me so stress free. Good to know my progress is on track for a fuller life.
