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.

I was actually distraught due to severe pain about my relationship with the company and its representatives.I had not been able to get a straight answer to my concerns about the recommended procedure which this doctor controlled. This particular representative not only restored the confidence I was trying hard to maintain, but she so well served my interests, that I can report a full turnaround in my attitude. I am very grateful for her professionalism, straightforwardness, ethics in sharing all pertinent information which frankly was vital for me to hear. Lastly, in a procedure widely advertised to have the potential to be seriously painful, her adept handling of the equipment made it virtually pain-free for me and that too was a relief. Really, one of the best doctors I've ever had the pleasure to deal with. Her friendliness and lack of arrogance were a pleasure I hadn't anticipated. What a credit to the force!

Dr Fojtik performed an EMG on me. I knew it wasn't going to be pleasant test but she explained her every move and what I should expect. She was so friendly and tried her best to put me at ease. What could have been a terrible experience with someone with a different personality, turned into a fun time, really. Best of all, she explained the results right then and there. If you have to have an EMG, don't fret if you have Dr Fojtik performing it.

It's my understanding that Dr Elizabeth Jovanovich is also Dr Elizabeth Fojtik. Same person, last name change. That said, She's friendly and personable and that matters in healthcare. She's knowledgable, professional, empathetic and truly she listens as it is clear she really wants to help you. Showing empathy is something severely lacking in today's US healthcare. Her possessing that quality alone earns her high regard from me. But there's more icing on the cake. She made my highly-dreaded EMG/NCS testing go by rather quickly and WAY easier than I'd expected. She did all she could to avoid causing unnecessary pain & apologized each time she thought she had. I would willingly do the testing again IF she is who is performing it. She's awesome!

Dr. Fojtik performed an EMG to rule out nerve damage in my arm. I told her that I was terrified of needles and she was very accommodating during the procedure. I will add that she was very friendly, gentle, explanatory, and thorough; she even disclosed a finding that was beyond the original focus of my visit. I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs to have an EMG performed.

Dr. Fojtik is always willing to listen to your needs and help where she can. She is always kind and gentle. She talks through her plan with you and explains further when needed. She is available within 24 hours in most cases via email. I am very comfortable recommending her at any time.

Dr Fojtik is an awesome doctor. She listens to me and makes sure I understand everything we discuss. She doesn’t talk down to me and never makes me feel stupid for asking questions. When I do have a question she doesn’t rush to answer them as if to hurry me out of her office.
