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. Begovic is always patient and takes the time to understand and provide advice and information about many things. She listens and was able to order an mri for my abdomen and pelvic and let me know I had an inflammation during pap smear. I like that she NOTATES everything I tell her regarding my concerns. She was able to order me a holtor monitor and do ekg and ask the right questions

Dr. Begovic is very apathetic and extremely rude. I made an appointment to go over my mri, I wanted an explanation. I had been trying to get in touch with her for over a week and she simply had her assistant read my mri verbatim to me. When I had the video visit with her she told me that my personality is intense and she didn't know why I scheduled an appointment with her. She said, "I don't understand why you are here, there is nothing I can do for you. I have been in unresolved horrible pain since August 2020. After decades of service with Scripps, I'm leaving. I would never recommend Scripps Torrey Pines as a whole.

I've been seeing Dr Begovic for over 10 years and always had excellent care. She has always been warm and friendly to me and more importantly, because I have crappy insurance that doesn't pay for much, she allows me to decide the level of care and the number of tests I can afford. She has helped me to be healthier in many ways and I am very grateful to her. I don't know why there are so many one star reviews in a row but I suspect it's the same person using multiple accounts

Stay away from Dr Begovic office in Del Mar – Apr 02, 2016
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Begovic?
The best part of moving to the Del Mar- Solana Beach area was having access to Scripps and signing up with Dr. Vedka Begovich. My husband attended one of my appointments with me and shortly thereafter he changed from his then current doctor to Dr. Begovic. We are so happy and healthy with Dr. Begovic in our lives.

This Phsyican is very cold , doesn't know really what she is doing. She seems on edge and isn't friendly. Unfortunately she isn't up to par on today's medicine which is something that is important to receiving quality care - this woman is not a good Doctor. John E.
