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.

Great Doctor; Great Staff
Dr. K is thorough, explains all of your options clearly, and has a very pleasant personality. I am thrilled with my results and highly recommend his care. The front office staff, and medical assistants are wonderful too. They are friendly and compassionate and just a joy to be around!

I have been to Dr. K several times for surgery, injections, and consultations. Every time, my feeling has been, “I’m in good hands (no pun intended.)” Every procedure was successful.

Dr K got me in right away for my surgery after my accident. He is very outgoing and puts you at ease when going over the process. I would recommend him to anyone needing a hand surgeon.

Excellent Surgeon
I went to see Dr. K for a second opinion. While there and listening to Dr. K and how he performs his procedures and everything else, I decided to cancel my surgery with the other doctor I had scheduled and change to Dr. Kovachevich. This was the best decision I ever made. We had the surgery scheduled immediately. I’ve had the surgery. The results were amazing and I would use and recommend Dr. Kovachevich to anyone needing surgery in his area of expertise.

I had a great experience with Dr Kovachevic. He took care facilitating the healing of my broken hand, and helped me avoid unnecessary surgery that others were asking me to consider. The physical therapy staff are also top notch. I highly recommend this group.

Please read to protect your own interests
I had surgery over a year ago and my hand is still WORSE than it was before the surgery. I received a surprise bill after the surgery that nearly DOUBLED the price I was told I would pay. I do NOT endorse Dr. Kovachevich and Hand Surgery Associates, nor do I advise anyone to use their services.
