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.

Bi-lateral knee replacements
His kind and very informative bedside manner sealed the deal for me . He made me feel at ease talking with him and asking all the questions I wanted to in making my decision to have both knees done at the same time . He was very honest and real with me . I made the decision to go ahead to have both done at the same time and I have no regrets ! I would do it all the same all over again . Nothing but top notch care from him and his staff . I am 12 weeks post-op and recovering well !

All we can say is “wow” this man is a life saver!
Highly recommend Kovach for any knee replacements!!! My husband had both knees at once replaced and Dr Kovach has given him his life back! Staff is top notch!!!! From the Dr’s to the nursing staff, to the rehabilitation staff all the way back to the cooking staff. This facility is so impressive and we could not have asked for a better experience! Thank you to everyone involved, even the secretaries! Going to miss this amazingly talented staff! Thank you again and God bless you all!

I rarely go to the Dr for anything but my knees were in such constant pain. I made an appointment with Dr Kovach and saw him in his Elkhart KS office. He was very informative and kind. We reviewed the xrays and saw that arthritis had set in both knees and the pain was because bone was rubbing on bone, no cushion in between. He gave me a steroid shot and it relieved me of the intense pain. I will be having both knees replaced in the near future. I have nothing but good to say about Dr Kovach.
