my son's injury is "very significant" according to Dr. Jaivin. My son and I thought that Dr. Jaivin was very knowledgeable, gracious, and humble. The office staff is wonderful. Dr. Jaivin recommended my son to another physician and the staff took a great deal of time to get everything in order for us to have a smooth transition. We will continue to see Dr, Jaivin for my son's long term needs.

Staff was warm and pleasant. Dr. Jaivin cared about my situation and wanted to find the best fix for it. He didn't rush through anything and took the time to give a good explanation of what was going on.

The doctor is competent but the wait time was one hour. I asked the receptionist when I arrived whether the doctor is running on time and was told that he was. Being lied to does not feel nice.
The issue I came in for I really felt that Dr. Jaivin listened and the options he spoke of was absolutely more than I could have hoped for . I really felt like for the first time in my life I was speaking to someone who really cared about the solution to my life long problem with my foot .
For the first time I understand what has happened with my foot. He isn't the greatest with the bedside manner, but he explains evrervything beautifully & I would recommend him to anyone who has had difficultly getting answers. He is very conserative & will progress as needed.
