Dr Bove was my surgeon for about 9 years. Excellent surgeon for my ISS and surgery on my trachea. Very informative, caring, and explained everything in a comfortable caring way.

I think he had been drinking. Or worse. At any rate, his speech was slurred, his eyes unfocused and red. I pretended I had to use the restroom and got out of there. The last thing I need is a doctor who is a substance abuser.

During my first visit with Dr Bove one of his nurses said to me how did I get Dr Bove as being my surgeon and I said I heard that he was the best in this field and I am pleased with his work.

HARK!: Avoid this doctor at all costs. I saw, Dr. Bove, regarding chronic hoarseness. His insertion of the scope through my right nostril was so brutal, so cruel that water poured from my eyes. I gagged, coughed, and almost vomited. I was traumatized, injured, and abused. He appeared mean, as if he was trying to hurt me on purpose, and he succeeded. Once again, HARK! We get in trouble when we fail to heed the warning signs in life. And, Dr. Bove, is a BIG warning sign.

Extremely caring, courteus, excellent doctor. Most doctors act like they do not have time to listen or talk. This doctor was extremely BUSY...likeany other doctor....extremely BUSY day ...multiple extremely high priority things going on at the same time and still took the time to keep asking me if I was ok....several times. He kept checking back too. Nurse - Jennifer was extremely nice and so was all of the staff. Excellant doctor plus staff. Thank you so much for your kindness and care !!!!! - happy patient: ila mcdermott :) I tried putting in highest rating but computer has a glitch problem I guess...ratings are highest scores/stars possible...maybe???
