Patient Reviews
Jan 21, 2019
Incredible doctor. Several doctors did not know what was wrong with me. But Dr. Kovar did: severe occipital neuralgia due to cervical arthritis. He spent an hour with me for the initial evaluation. He had a comprehensive plan: phsio, meds and injections. I had immediate short term relief. I had long term relief with injections. Did not need another one for three years. He is a great doctor. He even sent a two page letter to my doctor outlining my condition. Adrian is a great physiotherapist.
