Review for Dr. Kovack
I went to Dr Edwards for a second opinion. I am very happy that he didn’t just want to do surgery and do we have a whole plan to avoid that. He made sure to study my medical records prior to coming to talk to me.

Dr. Adam always takes time to listen to me and is concerned about my overall health concerns. No matter how busy he is he takes the time to ask questions and asks if I have any concerns or questions.
