Dr. Bovone is great!. Ive been seeing her for quite some time and she is always friendly and caring. She'll help me with any issues and her staff is very efficient. She set up a call with a referral doctor and that doctor called me later that same day... everything moved very quickly... if it was up to me calling, I would not have been as proactive.
SHC Patient, Jun 2020
Love Dr. Bovone :)

I've been seeing Dr. Bovone for 20 years. She really cares about her patients. She takes the time to get to know you and really asks about your life. She is smart and up to speed on all the latest technology and procedures. She is the best doctor!
SHC Patient, May 2020
Dr Bovone is awesome. I am just not sure what happened with the scheduling and wait time. I ended up having to take a conference call in my car (was hoping to make it home to make the call).
SHC Patient, May 2020
Dr. Bovone was friendly and informative.
SHC Patient, May 2020
Dr. Bovone is amazing.

She is the best OBGYN in the world....perhaps the universe. She listens, spends time, gives great advice. She is down to Earth and smart.
SHC Patient, Apr 2020
Dr. Bovone is the best!
SHC Patient, Mar 2020
The care provider is awesome, but I wish the provider had access to a ultra sound machine. This is based on my experiences with OB's in Australia. They are able to use an ultra sound machine at the routine visit to check on baby.
SHC Patient, Mar 2020
Dr Bovone spent time listening to me and give me suggestions, she explained to me when I have concerns, she also order necessary test which looks very reasonable and professional
SHC Patient, Mar 2020
Always remembers me and family and makes me very comfortable
SHC Patient, Mar 2020
excellent care
SHC Patient, Mar 2020
very supportive with procedure and grabbed a nurse to ease my uneasiness
SHC Patient, Mar 2020
The doctor spoke extremely fast, as if she was in a hurry to get me out of there from the moment she stepped into the exam room. So, that didn't make me feel like a valued patient.
SHC Patient, Feb 2020
I always receive excellent care from Dr. Bovone. She is caring, thoughtful and always puts my mind at ease, regardless of my concerns.
SHC Patient, Dec 2019
Will likely switch to another doctor and group after I have my baby. I feel like a number - not a person. I don't feel like anyone listens to me. I don't think she's a bad doctor - just not right for me.
SHC Patient, Dec 2019
care provider is very concerned and informs patient every step of the way!!
SHC Patient, Nov 2019
Dr. Bovone is amazing!

Excellent doctor with very clear information and also a very positive attitude!
SHC Patient, Oct 2019
Well experience, very professional, always happy disposition. Tries her best to understand situation, tries her best to (empathize) be empathetic.
SHC Patient, Sep 2019
Dr. Bovone is friendly and knowledgeable but it is hard to make personal connection or get comfortable with her. She moves very quickly and it feels like she does not have more than 5 minutes to spend with you. I respect her swiftness and time, but it can feel very impersonal and alienating.
SHC Patient, Sep 2019
I like my doctor but I do feel rushed through my appointments.
SHC Patient, Sep 2019
Dr. Bovone is outstanding. She is always very upbeat, listens carefully to questions, and always provides thorough explanations/answers. She always discusses treatment and weighs my input into the decision.
SHC Patient, Aug 2019
I already have recommended her
SHC Patient, Aug 2019
Dr. Bovone and the nurse that came in before her were very kind and informed me well on my health.
SHC Patient, Aug 2019
I am extremely happy with the care that I get from Dr Bovone. She discusses any concerns I have and will have me follow up with extra testing if it's needed or provide me with info on how to get more iron in my system. I also like that she has a good sense of humor. she is a great doctor.
SHC Patient, Aug 2019

SHC Patient, Jul 2019
I LOVE Dr. Bovone : )
SHC Patient, May 2019
It has been years since I found an OB/GYN who can fully trust. So I look forward to seeing Dr. Bovone every year. She is knowledgeable, approachable, friendly and spends time to understand her patients beyond the physical or medical needs. She can relate and connect well with her patients and that is key in term of continuation of care. GREAT JOB DR. BOVONE!

SHC Patient, Jan 2019
Dr. Bovone is always a pleasure to see, and takes me and my care very seriously. She takes time, listens, and helps solve any problems there may be. I appreciate her so much!
SHC Patient, Jan 2019
dr. bovone is the best
SHC Patient, Dec 2018
Overall, I felt like my entire appointment was focused on my weight and like I was being talked down to. When I mentioned certain topics they were brushed aside so I could be told more about how I am overweight. While I understand the importance of a healthy weight I felt very mistreated and like my doctor was being somewhat rude during the conversation.
SHC Patient, Dec 2018

SHC Patient, Sep 2017
As a patient, every time I have an appointment I have to wait 15-30 minutes after my scheduled appointment time. And then the doctor usually seems rushed once I'm able to see her.
SHC Patient, Sep 2017
Dr. Bovone is excellent in understanding the concerns of the patient and guiding them in difficult situations. I really appreciate the compassion she displayed, simply amazing.

there is simply no better than Dr Bovone. she is appropriately cautious when needed. she is thorough in her treatment. she is knowledgeable and yet down to Earth. she has performed a D&C for me and now a csection and I healed beautifully from both.
SHC Patient, Mar 2017
I used to see this doctor at another practice so I haven't seen her in a few years. I really like her as a doctor but I felt really rushed in the appointment and I feel that my primary concerns were just brushed off and not really addressed the way I was expecting. she also didn't mention to me when my next visit should be and if I should make an appointment before I left that day. Just a little disappointed over all and was expecting more.
SHC Patient, Mar 2017
I love working with Dr. Bovone. I reccommend her at every opportunity and look forward to continuing to have her oversee my current and future OB needs.
SHC Patient, Mar 2017

SHC Patient, Dec 2016
fantastic
SHC Patient, Nov 2016
I felt a little rushed, I really would have appreciated if the doctor had asked if I had any questions. Instead I felt like she was trying to walk out of the room while I said "wait, I have a question...ok, wait, I have another question." I'm pregnant, I'm going to have a million questions!

SHC Patient, Mar 2016
I tend to feel a little rushed with the doctor.
SHC Patient, Feb 2016
I love Dr Bovone. She absolutely explains my medical choices, the meds I should be on, and leaves a lot of decisions in my court, offering great education about these decisions. She is relaxed but takes action when intervention is needed. Her interpersonal skill are excellent- she remembers personal information, enjoys my daughter and takes genuine personal interest in ME!
SHC Patient, Feb 2016
Felt like dr. Bovone was in a rush, she stood the whole time during our visit. I felt kind of lost with symptoms and don't feel like what I was explaining was a normal or not thing.
SHC Patient, Feb 2016
very pleased.
SHC Patient, Feb 2016
This was my first consultation/appointment with Dr. Bovone and I am very thrilled and excited to have her as my Ob/GYN. She was very friendly, enthusiastic and knowledgeable and quickly followed up with questions that we had regarding some test coverages. I would definitely recommend her to others.
SHC Patient, Jan 2016
Dr Bovone is knowledgable and bright. However, when I had questions, she would be in a rush to answer them and when I wanted to follow up on questions, I felt like I couldn't because she was in a rush to get onto the next patient. She was my gynecologist and I should be able to ask her about issues that concern me.
SHC Patient, Jan 2016
Dr. Bovone is great - very thorough and took the time to talk through the ultrasound results and the options.
SHC Patient, Jan 2016
Despite the long wait, and that the office was officially closed for the day during my appointment, no one made me feel rushed or unimportant. The nurse, doctor, and admin staff were patient with me, taking lots of time to discuss my situation, and answering all of my questions.
SHC Patient, Jan 2016
Dr. Bovone and Dr. Tiglao are excellent!
SHC Patient, Jan 2016

SHC Patient, Dec 2015
Dr Bovone is an excellent Doctor, she listened to my concerns, gave recommendations and I generally felt that she cared about me and my health and welfare. She then called me the following day late in the evening to provide my test results - incredibly professional and compassionate.
SHC Patient, Nov 2015
The nurs and doctor didn't inform me that my doctor gonna be absent 1 week befor my due date. Wasn't happy about it. When I realize ( during scheduling next appontment) that and came to ask the nurse about it, she just didn't provide me information about my options if delivery will happens in a week of my doctor absence.
SHC Patient, Nov 2015
Dr. Bovone is simply perfect, and I have already recommended her to several of my friends, one of whom is now her patient as well.
