Patient Reviews
Feb 18, 2023
Dr. Covington has the best bedside manners , he listens and has always returned any call From answering service. In my case , I had some problems the day before the procedure was to be performed. I called late pm and he called me back before 8. He explained what problem was and we decided whether to go on with procedure or not, in terms I understood.
