Dr. Zachary Novakovic, MD

I have been a patient since Dr Novakovic came to Saratoga. I have no complaints. He takes his time, listens to concerns and gets you to the specialist you need. He also is very good at walking you through what the specialist is doing and why. He is very reassuring.

Dr. Novakovic is absolutely amazing. Very caring compassionate kind man. Hands down best doctor anyone could have.

I just want to start by saying that I dont often write reviews for anything be it a doctor a dentist or a vacuum cleaner. I felt compelled to write this because of the expert and compassionate care. My previous primary whom I loved retired and I had heard horror stories about other primaries in our area. Dr. Novakovic was highly recommended to me by my cardiologist so I was hoping to pick up where I left off and boy was I pleased! He has met and exceeded my expectations. He is thorough, he doesnt blow off my concerns, he LISTENS, asks questions, he works it up. What I think I enjoy the most is how easy going he is, he is very easy to talk to. His personality is very comfortable, relaxed, its like talking with an old friend during our visits. He has helped me greatly and I feel like I am in great hands! He is just the best and I am happy I found him!

I had the strangest experience with this professional of medicine. Has been my primary for three years though I don’t go to the doctors often, when I do I’m often not feeling well/at my best. Today he told me “we didn’t vibe” by far the weirdest most uncomfortable position to be put in as the patient. This was before he went to examine me so I felt super uncomfortable and just wanted to leave. I’ma super shy person and I think that made him uncomfortable I have no idea. I’m not looking to “vibe” with my doctor, I’m here for your professional expertise. Also he is often dismissing my physical complaints as being related to depression. I am not depressed though when I’m coming into the office I don’t feel well. I am shy yet respectful and am bewildered by his bedside manner. Will not be returning. Just wanted others to be aware in case of a common theme with this doctor of medicine.

I have been lucky enough to have experienced the best specialists and nurses in the Saratoga Hospital system. After today I feel like I have found the perfect doctor for me also. VERY happy!

Dr N is a great physician. I have several complicating conditions and he has been able to get me in touch with specialists, get testing coordinated, and most importantly to me, listens to my overall medical concerns. I’d highly recommend him!

Went for my second visit today and he was as happy about my progress from two months ago as I am. I am a 65 year old male and I feel more comfortable about having Dr. Novakovic for my doctor than I ever have felt about any other doctor before. What a fortunate find for me!

I'm very happy to have found Dr. Novakovic. He's smart, easy to talk to, and quickly available by phone if I have questions. The whole office is excellent. I'm very impressed by him because he follows up on things and remembers what I've told him. I've been looking for a doctor in Saratoga for ten years, since my old one retired, and Dr. Novakovic is the only one I've found that I know I'll stay with. Highly recommended!

Could not be happier with Dr Novakovic. I have seen him twice now. A friend referred me and I think he is very current and up to date with everything. Did not feel too rushed. Very professional but has a sense of humor. What a primary should be.
