Dr. Kovacs is a very skilled, competent physician. He also has an excellent reputation among other health care providers I've spoken to. He's also personable and seems to genuinely care about my health.

Not only one of the best clinicians ever, Dr. Kovacs is the kindest, most compassionate Dr. I have ever known. He always spends quality time with you, never looks or acts rushed (though he is)and I trust him with my life. I've been seeing him for at least 30 years, and my mother for 39 years. The office staff is efficient and friendly.

Changed doctors after 30 years with a great internist, but felt he didn't care anymore. Researched Dr. Kovacs and what a great choice I made. I think he is great! Very caring and really listens as the last doctor stopped listening. He is the best and I tell everyone I know how he listens and really seems to care.

Dr. Robert Kovacs has been my primary care physician since 1995. An unabridged thesaurus does not contain enough words to describe his knowledgeable expertise, compassionate attitude and great sense of humor to boot! All physicians should be strive to be like him. His colleagues and staff likewise are affable. When I go for OV or call on phone with health issue, he is not just a doctor, but my trusted friend, confidant - someone who is genuinely concerned about my well-being. And while I am reasonably blessed with good health and don't see him but perhaps semi-annually, I too am very blessed to have found such a wonderful physician. God bless you, Dr. Kovacs, for you, sir, are a fine asset to your profession [you do Hippocrates proud]!
