Worst doctor I've ever experienced. Him and his team have AWFUL beside manner. I would NEVER recommend him to anyone. This is the first time I've ever broke a bone and to say he made me feel completely uncomfortable is an understatement. He got irritated when I asked questions (I had a few considering I've never broke a bone before) and his assistant who put the cast on was extremely rude as well. Can't complain about the X-ray tech, she was just about the only nice person that works there. I highly suggest if you need an orthopedic dr, go somewhere else!

This is the absolute worst dr I've ever had the displeasure of meeting. I want to warn people to STAY AWAY from Dr. Kovacs. He was a nightmare and so was his assistant. He has no bedside manner and a poor reputation in this area. He cannot keep his story straight, cannot communicate to people about their condition, has no patience, no sympathy for his patients, and is an all around horrible dr/person. I shattered my leg and when I met him, he pulled my leg (bones in pieces grinding against each other) and screamed at me b/c he said I was tightening my leg too much. I was in agony and had no control over my leg. He's insane. And his evil assistant aka nurse Ratchet was almost just as bad. When he took my cast off, he twisted my foot and held it bc it shouldn't have been turned that way and ever since then my foot hasn't been right. Go to Valentino if you want a great dr. I switched to him in the middle of my treatment b/c I couldnt take Kovacs' horrible personality anymore. good luck!
