Our session focused on the essential issues. He was direct & thorough, but not intrusive. I feel he knew the exact questions to ask.

very interesting experience but there is not much more I can say in the moment as I assume there will be more sessions and we have to wait what will really happen...

I saw Dr. Novakovic in a moment of crisis, and after an hour-long conversation I walked away feeling hopeful, as if my life had been anchored again. He is the special kind of psychiatrist every patient should be looking for.

Dr. Novakivic had a professional and great beside manner. Seemed engaged and empathetic. However, after only 45 mins of our first discussion it was clear he did not hear me, decided to treat symptoms, rather than underlying condition, and failed to validate the help I needed. He made an assumption and chose not to collaborate with my clinical psychologist to get me the support needed.
As pleasant as he was during our appointment, he made a comment that conveyed he thought I would be drug seeking. I left the appointment feeling shame and helpless.

Excellent both professionally and personally. And his research and published papers give him a solid expertise in specific areas including trauma and addiction that reaches deeper than just conversation therapy.

Dr. Novakovic has a friendly and very professional demeanor. he doesn't "watch the clock" as they say, he gives you his undivided attention. He engages in a way that confirms that he isn't just listening, he actually paying attention. I didn't feel judged or rushed. By the end of the session, you realize that you are going to get treatment with someone with a lot of experience and expertise.
Very impressed.

I was misunderstood by my previous psychiatrist and had to look for help elsewhere, Dr. Novakovic gives you the chance to talk about your issues in great detail and truly listens and cares, he also asked very in depth questions during my diagnoses that my previous psychiatrist ignored, highly recommend.

Dr. Novakovic made a strong first impression. He provided feedback in a caring and genuinely concerned manor. His warm eyes made me feel I could open up to him without feeling judged. He was very kind.
More than 1 year agoStephanie G.Verified patient
I really appreciate Dr. Novakovic's clear interest in me, my current situation, and even my childhood. His line of thorough questioning allowed me to communicate several issues/concerns that I have or had been dealing with, thereby revealing to him details that I expect will become integral to our treatment. Perhaps best of all, he took his time during this - our first - meeting, demonstrating a clear desire to understand me, in all my facets. In addition, he encouraged me to speak openly about the issues I'm dealing with (or have dealt with in the past), raising connections that even I had never really considered. I have tremendous confidence in Dr. Novakovic, and I look forward to continuing treatment. I am quite confident that he will help me to address my known issues and perhaps even delve into additional concerns. Thank you!

Dr. Novakovic called to check in with me when I canceled the appointment I had made with him online. We hadn't even spoken yet! On a Saturday afternoon, he gave me his next immediate availability. Dr. Novakovic asked thorough and clear questions, yet he was reflective and thoughtfully provided feedback. He wasn't just checking boxes towards a diagnosis. When there was an issue with my pharmacy shortly after our appointment, Dr. Novakovic returned my call promptly and made the appropriate adjustments immediately so I could receive the medication in a timely fashion. I feel blessed to have found him through ZocDoc and that he was so readily willing and able to be the medical professional that was needed.
