So blessed to have Dr. Kovacs as my doctor. He makes a difficult topic approachable and normal (which it is, but…) It is a comfort to be cared for by him. Just a very nice person.
This consult was my first appointment with this group. Dr Salvo had read the notes I sent, listened thoughtfully, and gave helpful and knowledgeable suggestions for managing my worsening IBS symptoms. It took over 2 months to get this initial consult and the call center was inaccurate with some important information prior, so I suggest verifying any call center info right away with the local office. I feel Dr Salvo's expertise will greatly benefit my good health.
Dr. Salvo is the best. She cares and always goes above and beyond to make sure I am on the right track with my health. I am happy to be under her care. She’s awesome and always responsive. I couldn’t recommend her enough!
