Super friendly, this helps so much with q new patient/provider experience.
Very knowledgeable and helpful.
This was my first time seeing Dr. Bobko. I felt very comfortable with her ability to explain my injury and what she needs to do to fix it. It is imperative that I feel comfortable with the doctor.. Dr. Bobko is a doctor that gives the patient the time and respect to ask any questions so nothing is missed. I really find it hard this day and age to find doctors that do that anymore. Thank you Dr. Bobko for such a comforting experience.
