Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Drnovsek has been amazing; she is very thorough and makes the procedure as comfortable as possible.

My experience with Dr. D. Was in October 2014. I was very ill and Dr. D. spent many hours on my case and the procedure she decided to perform SAVED MY LIFE. My family physician told me that she was responsible for turning things around and get my body on track to healing. I will be forever grateful for her wisdom and skills.

I have met many physicians and I can say without hesitation that Dr. Drnovsek definitely is the best doctor I have ever met. What impressed me so deeply was her analytical thinking, which led Dr. Drnovsek to resolve my health issue. And, she is a very caring doctor who is extremely compassionate. Without a doubt I would chose her if I needed radiologist for my parents or family member.
