Athanasios Verras MD

This doctor is a rare find! Whoever thinks he or his staff is acting preferentially because of insurance is incredibly mistaken! The majority of his patients are on Peachcare or Medicare. Those who are self pay only have to pay what Medicare would pay for a visit! They even work with you in difficult financial situations. That's awesome!! He is available to his patients nights and weekends - something that is almost unheard of these days. Plus he's there until 7 or 8pm! I'm not his nurse, but I am a nurse and I can really appreciate how hard he and his staff have to work with the amount of patients they see a day. Sick, screaming kids 10 hours a day are not easy to deal with. Dr. Verras specializes in hematology and picks up on a lot of things other physicians wouldn't.

Dr Verras is great, but his staff is the worst extremely rude they make you fell like they're doing you a favor they will not even look at you when you get to the counter also when you call you need to be very specific and don't ask lot of questions they just seem like they don't want to be there they just have to:(. I wasn't working and I am a single mom so I had medicaid and when I took my son for his 4 months check Dr Verras asked the nurse to weight the baby etc guess what was her answer I am already taking care of Ms.. baby she has insurance.. it was a slap on my faceif Medicaid doesn't pay why do you accept it??? anyways the first thing I did when I got a job and a great Group insurance I switched and I wish that Dr Verras will chose a better people to represent his office.

Dr. Verras is the best pediatrician I have ever encountered. He knows his stuff and if he comes across something he is not sure, he will definitely do the research and get to the bottom if it. Dr. John is also a very great doctor. As for the front office, the majority of them are okay and somewhat friendly but for some reason they put the one with the worst attitude at the check in counter. But regardless of her attitude I still would not change pediatricians because Dr. Verras is very knowledgeable and truely cares about his patients.

If it wasn't for the front office staff, then I would rate Verras Pediatrics excellent. Dr. Verras and Dr. John are great. But front office staff makes me feel like I am back in a third world country where to get the smallest thing done, the person will want you to know that they have the power and control. I work in a healthcare clinic and my visits to Verras Pediatrics made me appreciate the level of service we provide to our clients. I guess maybe the front office staff have had bad experiences. But, nonetheless, I am not asking for a free service and when a customer pays, you treat them well.

We used Dr. Verras for several years when we lived in Norcross. He was wonderful with the children and very good at diagnosing a problem. I highly recommend him.

As a new parent, I especially appreciated his availability at all hours! He was to-the-point during visits, but caring at the same time.
