I try to be objective in my reviews and understand people make mistakes and have bad days, but there has been continual issues at this office and am relieved to have a different primary. Appointments never put in book, brief unproductive visits, and all around apathy from staff and doctor. Not a coincidence she has nearly as many one star as five star reviews.

I sought out Dr.Pappas because I was looking for a doctor interested in patient care, NOT selling prescriptions. After waiting 45 minutes to be seen for my appointment (scheduled over a month in advance) Dr.Pappas spent 6 min with me. Because I asked for specific blood work, Pappas billed it as NON ROUTINE. Consequently, I was billed $110. I can understand having to cover the bloodwork itself, but NOT paying $110 for Pappas to check a few boxes on a piece of paper after BARELY looking at me.

When I wrote a bad review of her practice, she discharged me as a patient and cancelled all refills of my blood pressure medication.

have been a patient of Dr. Pappas for many years. Many reviewers perceive her no-nonsense approach as "being rude." I disagree with those reviews, Dr. Pappas listens to my concerns, & cuts straight to the point with recommendations and a treatment plan. Each of the doctors that she has recommended have been outstanding. She makes time to see patients on short notice. Her staff is friendly & personable. On-site lab is convenient. I am very satisfied with her practice.

I went twice so I can say with with certainty there is no physical exam when you go to this doctor. The nurse took my BP, Doctor listened to my heart and that was it! No palpation on the abdomen, nothing. I do not feel like I had an exam, but I did get 3 referrals for other doctors and blood work (Fine with me). I felt rushed, I felt unheard, she was short tempered with her staff, and not the place for me to receive care.

A brilliant young Doctor with amazing insight. A real treasure that we are fortunate to have right here in Toms River. Won't sugar coat the situation, so if you're thin-skinned, not for you. If you want great advice and care, this is your Doctor.

The worst ever. Only wants to give you a pile of referrals that you don't need and get rid of you without dealing with what you came in to get help for. Then she refuses to do anything what so ever to help you. Just wants to push you off on other doctors. Won't even write a prescription. Never even lets you talk.
