Practice did not provide invoice. Even upon request invoice was never sent. Also, the office does not provide invoices digitally. In consequence of that I am unable to claim my medical expense with my insurer.

I had some foreign material in my right eye, and it was becoming a serious hindrance. Since I had no success in dislodging it myself, I needed professional assistance. Dr. Jovkar helped me immediately by successfully removing that material. My eye is now just fine and I am very grateful!
July 14, 2021Brian W.Verified patient
Dr. Jovkar is a very poor communicator. His complete inability to communicate effectively with me is the reason I will choose a different doctor after my current treatment is finished.
He wouldn't listen. I tried to tell him that I wasn't able to yet get the medication he prescribed because I hadn't had time to take the *paper* prescription to the pharmacy and wait for it to be filled. He just interrupted me and wrote me *another paper* prescription instead of electronically forwarding the prescription to my pharmacy like most doctor's offices do now.
He also wouldn't provide basic information about my treatment plan. He kept scheduling follow-up appointments, but wouldn't tell me how well my eye was healing or when he expected it to be fully healed.
Finally, he wouldn't answer basic questions. When I asked him a question about why the sight in my treated eye was still worse than the other eye, he ignored my question until the *third* time I asked and then he told me it was an unproductive question.
As far as I can tell, Dr. Jovkar is a fine diagnostician and clinician. But unless you enjoy being interrupted, ignored, kept in the dark about your treatment plan, and having your health questions dismissed, I would strongly suggest seeing a different ophthalmologist.

Dr. Sayed is very professional and kind to us. We figured out the problem and treatment very easily. But nurses are little bit strict and not kind at all.

-too much waiting after I was in the exam room. The person helping me with basic eye exam and paperwork seemed new because she was a bit slow in processing everything and had to ask questions from other peers often, which created more waiting for me.

My husband was in so much pain and he was attended promptly, while I was still filling the forms. Dr Sayed and his staff are very kind and attentive and examined and treat very well my husband.

I will preface this by saying this did not go well. I wont be returning. He was difficult to understand and aggressive. What I did understand was that he couldn't help me.

What I appreciated most about Dr. Jovkar is that he did not seem rushed, and took time to make sure all of my questions and my mother's questions were answered. He was clear, comforting, and highly professional.

Dina O.Verified patient
The appointment was for my dad and he was very pleased with the level of care he received. He will be back for his follow up and is happy to have chosen Dr. Jovkar. On my part, I have to give props to the front office staff which coordinated the appointment and reached out to me to confirm the apt by phone and email. They made the relationship between ZocDoc and the office a seamless experience! Great job!
