- On my first appointment with Dr Sokolov, I felt very welcome and was put at ease immediately by her kind and attentive manner. Everything was explained clearly and in detail, which I found to be very helpful.
- This doctor has a fantastic knowledge of epilepsy. She helped diagnose me and now I am seizure free.
- Dr Elisaveta Sokolov reported my video EEG telemetry which has resulted in my accurate epilepsy diagnosis. For many years I have been undiagnosed. Thanks to Dr Sokolov I now know my diagnosis and have the correct treatment.
- Fantastic physician with a human approach and a clear ability to cope easily under pressure. I recommend her strongly.
