Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Easy to engage with good inside to my situation. He clearly had reviewed why I was there. He explained what the MRI was showing and my options for treatment

Outstanding Physician
I saw Dr. Javernick because a friend of ours raved about his skill and knowledge as a surgeon. Dr. Javernick really heard me, and along with x-rays and and exam, he had a thorough understanding of my knee pain and got to the root of the issue. His diagnosis was accurate. I also appreciate how his treatment recommendations have helped. He is easy-going and personable, experienced, capable and skilled. I know I am in the best of hands under his care.

Excellent explanations of shoulder arthritis and options for treatment. Enthusiastic and supportive of my athletic interests and ambitions as an older woman. Good listener and provided clear answers to my questions. Cheerful and caring. I was very happy with my initial interaction with Dr. Javernick and look forward to his continued care.

Good Bedside Manner
He seemed very concerned about my injury, but was realistic about the success/prognosis of my recovery. He was gentle when manipulating my leg. Just very kind, concerned, and soft spoken. He put me at ease knowing he was going to be my surgeon.

Great experience!!
I would highly recommend Dr Javernick! I tore my ACL skiing, 3 months postpartum. As a mom with a breastfeeding baby I was extremely nervous about undergoing surgery. Dr Javernick did not pressure me into surgery and I decided to wait a full year before deciding to have my ACL repaired. Kim, his medical assistant, was extremely helpful in answering all my questions/ getting doctors notes, etc. The recovery was more intense than I was expecting, so I am so very glad I waited!!! Overall, Dr Javerick was SO kind, knowledgeable, provided me with all the information I needed, and made me feel like I was in charge of my health decisions without pressure in any particular direction! I so appreciated my experience. My surgery went well! I believe the graft outcome will be positive. I’m 7 days post-op and doing fantastic.

Subscapularis tendon reattachment
The procedure was done at OCR out patient facility in Loveland. They were very professional and proficient. Post-OP directions were clear and easy to follow. During the procedure Dr Javernick found another torn tendon and repaired it as well. Post-OP pain was minimal and all incisions remained sealed, did not drain at all, and healed quickly. Dr Javernick is one of the more relaxed surgeons I have ever encountered and is very easy to talk to. He takes the time to include your spouse in the conversations and on the day of the procedure sets up a private consult room to discuss the results of the procedure with your spouse while you are recovering. I would highly recommend him for a rotator cuff repair procedure.

Biceps tenoromy
Very straight forward, so far so good post-op (four weeks. I wish this clinic had on-line charting and higher quality discharge supplies. That’s not a direct reflection on the surgeon.

I had a hiking accident that crushed my proximal humerus bone, and the first time I met Dr. Javernick I was in a lot of pain and and still in shock at what I had done to my body. He listened, answered all of my questions clearly and with a caring attitude, and made sure I understood all of my options, going forward. The most important part of the treatment I received was how he inspired me with innovative ideas for contributing to my own healing, with my mind and intention, along with levels of activity for rehabilitation. He inspired me at a critical time, when I needed inspiration. This is in addition to the expertise and impeccable credentials he brings to his practice. I feel lucky and thankful every day that I was referred to Dr. Javernick, as I use my arm and shoulder with full range of motion!
