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.

Dr. Jalovec is wonderful! She takes time with you and explains everything to you. Yes, you have to wait sometimes, but that is because she gives every patient the time they need. She is an excellent surgeon and I feel like her being attentive to detail and her expertise, possibly saved me a second surgery. I would highly recommend her to family and friends.

Good dr but the wait times are at a minimum of two hours. They don’t have the decency to let you know how far behind they are when you arrive. They could at least call people ahead of time, especially if they know they are two hours behind so you could stay at home until closer to the time of when they will actually be able to see you. If you are more than 15 minutes late they make you reschedule but they don’t respect you enough to tell you they are late. My advice, find a different dr who gives you the same respect they expect from you!!!

She is a friendly, personable doctor. Through the luck of a cancelled appt. was able to see her 3 weeks after diagnosis and surgery was done 2 weeks later. During 1st visit she wrote notes about what was discussed and gave those notes to me as a reference. Her staff called promptly with tests needed before surgery and made those test appt. for me. The only real negative is wait time in the office at least 2 hours. Also would like nurse in room as dr. explained thing if clarity were needed.
