Dr. Karavasilis specialized in Family Medicine with a special interest in women's health for over 30 years. In her practice, she touched countless lives, offering not only expert medical care but also kindness and understanding that eased the burdens of her patients. Her passion for healing extended beyond the clinic, influencing her community in ways that will remain.
