never feel rushed
Dr. Dovec is the best doctor I've ever encountered
I was very impressed.
Dr. Dovec is exceptional. Her "office side manner" is excellent. She uses humor to help put her patients at ease and consistently provides encouragement.
I have seen other teams this is by far the best bariatric Surgery group and team with our support I've seen
I would recommend Dr Dovec to anyone needing any form of bariatric work. Dr Dovec has put GBMC on the map for excellent health care. had it not been for Dr Dovec I was ready to go elsewhere. Her office and staff including the surgery team are second to none
Dr. Dovac is a wonderful person. She cares about her patients and is enthusiastic!
Dr Doveck was willing to do a phone conference with my support system since they were out of town, she shows care and time for patients, not feeling rushed even though she has other patients to see also
At this point in the program,,,I am pleased and confident in my decision to under go this procedure with Dr. Dovec. I have a few issues dealing with various insurances, but have been told my fears are needless.
Dr. Dovec is amazing! She makes you feel extremely comfortable and is very personable.
Nutritionist and Dr. Dovec were great! Worth waiting for!
OUTSTANDING SERVICE
Excellent
the only gripe i had was not expecting my 1st Appt to be 3hrs & then waiting to be seen after the intro seminar But I do know She was swamped with several patients at once
Due to the emergency, I had to wait a little time. This was a minute inconvenience.
Dr. Dovec has great people skills. She was great in all aspects.
She is a awesome doctor.
