Patient Rating
Patients consistently praise Dr. Florou as knowledgeable, well prepared, and able to explain conditions and treatment options in clear, accessible terms, which helps them feel informed and empowered. Many reviewers highlight her compassion, attentive listening, willingness to take time, and an efficient office and staff who support follow-up and coordination of care. A small number of comments, however, describe slow or incomplete communication from the office and at least one report expressed a lack of empathy and feeling powerless, indicating isolated concerns about responsiveness and bedside manner.
Generated via Patient Reviews
The patient rating score is an average of all responses on our patient experience survey. The rating averages scores for all questions about care from our providers. The scale on which responses are measured is 1 to 5 with 5 being the best score.
Patient comments are gathered from our patient experience survey and displayed in their entirety. For the convenience of our visitors, some patient comments have been translated from their original language into English while preserving their original meaning as accurately as possible. Patients are de-identified for confidentiality and patient privacy.

Sabe como dirigir al paciente cuando este no est seguro de su tratamiento
You guys are the best. Thanks for giving my life back to me.
Dr. Florou is very kind and patient and does not rush through the appointment. She answers all my questions and is not intimidating at all.
She is the best!
No one is more efficient than Dr Florou. She is always on time ( if not ahead of schedule). She is hands down the best at returning messages and getting things done in a very timely manner. She is kind and caring and will take as much time as you need with her
Like I said shes great. A literal life saver.
Shes so thorough and answers all my questions! I love her
Dr Florou lacks empathy, I felt like I was a case in a text book that just has to follow the statistics. Dr Florou left me feeling helpless with a lack of empowerment that I had any ability to help control this disease, I just had to spend whatever years I had left in the best way I could. I did not get any confidence that Dr Florou would help fight this with me, help advocate for me throughout treatment and help find other avenues (eg new treatment, trials) as things progressed. I felt powerless and hopeless, which for a 43 yr old very fit mother with 2 girls (8 and 11) it was extremely disheartening and disappointing
Awesome!
Dr Florou is the very best Dr. she listens and is very thorough in her exams and care.
I actually saw Lauren. She is very kind and is concerned for my health. She was wonderful at answering questions and providing advice.

We have been in contact with the Doctor and staff repeatedly in the last two weeks asking questions and requesting information about my care and potential treatments. Return calls and information is slow and many times requested information is not given at all and we have been seriously misled about procedures and expectations of my care.

Thumbs up.
Dr. Florou and her nurse were EXCELLENT!
Even though I didn't receive a good prognosis I felt like they did a good job of telling me my options.
Though at this point I am not sure if I will be eligible for the procedure that I am curious about. I believe I have been informed of what must take place first to see if it will minimize the growth of the cancer that I have and then be eligible.
good
