THE PRACTICE

John J. Panagotacos, M.D.

 

As a Marin County native I am honored to be able to take care of those in the community in which I grew up. Even though my years of training took me on a journey around the country, I knew that I wanted to return home to practice medicine here in Marin.

​

As with all physicians, my goal is to help people who are in need because of medical conditions, and like most doctors, I have a special bond with my speciality of medicine. Neurology is a wonderful field of medicine because of the intricacy of the nervous system and neverending neural changes that take place during one's lifetime. Yet it is the map-like network of connections that is laid out with such amazing precision that grants a calming sense of order and permits a starting point for studying the vast array of neurological conditions.
