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.

By Great doc He gave me great advice about treatment for my Prostate Cancer. Would recommend to anyone.

He preformed TURP procedure in June of 2016. I waited almost 4 years after he told me he could do the operation. It was a mistake to wait-self cath for 4 years was awful for my quality of life. The operation went well and i would recommend Dr. Novotny. He does not have time to chit chat but do be offended..........he's busy. I can urinate like I did in high school and I am 63 years old...................Amen

Has absolutely no knowledge about Interstitial Cystitis. Very pompous attitude. Took no notes during the time he was my dr where I underwent multiple procedures. Said my bladder looked normal and didn't know why I was in pain! I now have an amazing urologist and she said my bladder is in horrible condition. So I went yrs believing my bladder wasn't damaged and therefore was not receiving the proper treatments. Go elsewhere!

Worst medicalexperience I've ever had. Refused to consider the possibility I had IC, and so I received no treatment. Instead, he subjected me to a painful procedure which caused urethral bleeding and was needless. I left Kaiser shortly thereafter and received the diagnosis and a referral to East Sacramento Physical Therapy, where I had pelvic PT which saved my life. Shame on this doctor's incompetence, so typical of Kaiser Vermanente.
