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.

He is the most knowledgeable doctor I have ever been treated by.

Wonderful communicator
Dr. Lovy is superb. Seldom have a met a doctor of any specialty who was so thorough, so thoughtful, so studious . . . with a great "bedside manner." Intelligent, experienced, and pleasant to converse with. I doubt you will find better in the Coachella Valley.

Best in Palm Springs
He is very thorough and during covid took time to "medical facetime" to go over blood work and any questions. Once office visits resumed showed me x-rays on his computer and showed me where my results..Would highly recommend he needs a clone..

Dr. Lovy is wonderful. Spends as long a time as needed with patient. A couple times over an hour. Also, unlike any other doctors around here, he puts every xray and mri up on screen and reviews and discusses with patient. So much more valuable than just looking at a written report. Also efficient scheduling. Have never waited more than 10-15 min. Shows much interest in patient!

I have already recommended Dr. Lovy to a couple of friends. Dr. Lovy takes time with you. He never rushes through your appointment. He listens and asks many questions. He reviews previous appointment notes and history with you.

For years I have had back problems not truly knowing the extent. On my first visit I was joined by my partner and Dr.lovy spent two hours going over my x-rays step by step. Never felt I only had 15 minutes of his time. He explained my cane was wrong and I needed a walking.stick to keep me upright. We left his office feeling very up beat and knowing answers I was never given. I still see him every 2 or 3 months and the visits are lengthy and Up beat he never makes me feel I'm at the end of life
