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.

Looking Back 25 Years, One of the Best Surgeons
Well,This is a Long time coming as I was Dr.Vincent Yakavonis Patient for 3 years from 1990-1993.I needed an Ulna Nerve Transposition on my Left Arm and had a Major operation at Kent County Aug 1992 performed by Dr.Yakavonis.I couldnt ask for a better or more competent Orthopedic Doctor,our Patient/Doctor relationship was 5 Stars.I lost partial use of my Left Hand as I postponed surgery so long and was advised this would happen.Now,looking back in 2023 Dr.Yakovonis is a wonderful Memory.I live in Florida but no doctor comes as close to the help I received from Him.God Bless!

As far as Dr. Yakavonis is concerned, he is a very competent Dr. and not only diagnosed my problem and prescribed medication, but his office staff is where you are going to have problems. If you read some of the reviews on the Atmed Medical Center in Johnston, you will have an idea of what is going on there. I found out the hard way. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend a Dr. if the support staff is going to be a problem, and such is the case here. No answer at office, no call backs, nothing.

After only two visits with this Doctor, my mind was made up that he probably would have done well to hang up his Doctor's coat YESTERDAY! He has 0 bedside manner, he cuts you off when you are trying to speak, he is not at ALL thorough. His handwriting is SO atrocious, not ONE single lab tech could make out what tests he even wanted to have performed. He's condescending. If you want to walk out of there feeling 10 X's worse than you did going in? Then he is your guy!!!
