Dr Harris is great no-nonsense doctor. I feel happy for having come to him (initially) for a second opinion.

I saw Dr Harris for a second opinion and was absolutely delighted. He explained my medical issues and answered all my questions, some of them even before I asked them. Dr Harris is definitively one of the best doctors I have seen in my life!
SHC Patient, Aug 2019
All of the above was handled very professionally.
SHC Patient, Jul 2019

SHC Patient, Feb 2019
At least he listen to me and didn't tell me I was crazy. Thank you.
SHC Patient, Jan 2019

SHC Patient, Aug 2018
Dr Harris was exceptionally proficient, giving thorough explanations of my condition that I could understand and apply. Thank you Dr Harris. You made the arduous trip worth the effort.
SHC Patient, Aug 2018
Though I would recommend this doctor to others, I would warn my friends that he uses technical terms without explanation. I had to stop him multiple times to say, "I don't understand the words that you are using." He continued to do that throughout our meeting. Annoying but expected from a doctor! Some decade, you'll start training them to speak in a language that their patients can easily understand...
SHC Patient, Jun 2018
I would highly recommend Dr. Harris to any family or friend that can access Stanford with their health care provider.
SHC Patient, Jun 2018
Well all is very good how they attend.
SHC Patient, Apr 2018
Worst bedside manner I have ever experienced. Rude, dismissive, acted as if he was to important to be there, spent 2 minutes with me & refused to explain anything or discuss condition/option.
SHC Patient, Mar 2018
recommend Your hospital and the doctors all the time to people that I know
SHC Patient, Mar 2018

Very good.
SHC Patient, May 2017
dr Harris has been my doctor for a long time. he is excellent across the board
SHC Patient, May 2017
In spite of sending an email to him, he never replied to it. Yet he questioned as to why I did not get an ultrasound study done before my appt. slot. I felt dumb founded. His staff communications need improvement URGENTLY.
SHC Patient, May 2017
I felt as if I was being seen by my regular physician. He didn't seem concerned and I left feeling like I had wasted my time.
SHC Patient, May 2017
Dr. E.J. Harris is an excellent physician. He has kept me walking - A great feat with this compromised body.
SHC Patient, Apr 2017

SHC Patient, Mar 2017
All in all this was an excellent encounter.
SHC Patient, Mar 2017
IT;S ALL GOOD
SHC Patient, Mar 2017
Dr. Harris was very dismissive of my concerns. While he was certain, (with little explanation to me), that my symptoms were not a vascular problem his demeanor was condescending and unconcerned when I asked questions about my next steps. His general response was "all I can tell you is, it's not a vascular problem, I don't have anything else to tell you. I've had the concerns for almost 3 years and as the frequency and discomfort increases I was trying to get advice on what type of doctor might be able to help. He just didn't seem to care & was clearly bothered by me prescription for more help.
SHC Patient, Feb 2017
Dr Harris and his team are the best in the world, they have my complete confidence.
SHC Patient, Feb 2017
Couldn't have asked for a better person, because I already had one.
SHC Patient, Feb 2017
Very, very satisfied
SHC Patient, Feb 2017
Dr. HARRIS is very blunt - he "tells it like it is" - Did not get the sense he cared, however; he was impersonal to us. Very competent but....
SHC Patient, Dec 2016
Dr. Harris has a natural manner that inspires patient confidence that his results fully affirm.
SHC Patient, Nov 2016
Dr. Harris is world class.
SHC Patient, Oct 2016

SHC Patient, Jun 2016

SHC Patient, Apr 2016

SHC Patient, Mar 2016
Doctor seemed OK, but not friendly.
SHC Patient, Mar 2016
Great experience.
SHC Patient, Mar 2016
Dr. Harris & his staff are the best -
SHC Patient, Feb 2016
Dr. Harris is truly wonderful! He built a stint to take the swelling out of my left leg several years ago..closely montors the vascular functions......His professional, caring and kind manner makes me confident that I have the finest vascular surgeon in the world......Thank you Stanford!
SHC Patient, Dec 2015
Perfect
SHC Patient, Dec 2015
Grateful for Dr Harris' expertise and comfortable manner.
SHC Patient, Nov 2015
really knowledgeable and skilled but I would like broader explanation e.g. why is scar tissue so often an answer to why something didn't work? Must be common. What is anyone trying to do to get around it? I have enough advanced degrees to understand an explanation and even a brief telling of research results and aims;
SHC Patient, Nov 2015
Terse.
SHC Patient, Nov 2015
Very good experience.
SHC Patient, Jun 2015
Dr. Harris was very attentive and relaxed and we were not rushed in any way.
