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.

The most aggravating healthcare professional I have ever worked with. Dr. Govostes is full of himself and INCREDIBLY demeaning to female patients.
The procedure he gave me failed twice, and he gaslit me into thinking I was crazy regarding my dental concerns. My mother had a similar experience being gaslit and misled by Dr. Govostes.
What went well
- Explained conditions well
What could be improved
- Didn't listen or answer questions
- Didn't trust the provider's decisions

I just had a sinus graft and 2 implants. When I entered the office I was a bag of nerves despite these marvelous reviews. As soon as Dr.G entered the exam room, he allayed all concerns with his kind and professional demeanor. He took time to review the surgery and after effects. In addition he was gentle through out and aware of my discomfort. I am completely satisfied with Dr. G and highly recommend him.

Dr. Govostes recently performed a gingival graft on my #34 tooth. He took the time to explain the procedure, and displayed professionalism and patience in answering my many questions. He then subsequently performed the procedure flawlessly, and I experienced minimal pain during and following the procedure. I highly recommend Dr. Govostses!

I went to Dr. Govostes for some cosmetic lip and gum surgery and he was fantastic! I was really nervous about the procedure, but I trusted him and he did not disappoint. He clearly explained the process to me and managed my expectations for recovery. He did a great job and I love the results. I would recommend him to any family member or friend.
