Personable, considerate of patient's needs, extremely knowledgeable, thorough, I trust his treatment decisions completely.
Very nice doctor - Honest, conservative thinking, to the point and easy to understand.
I truly recommend Dr Bobek. He is conservative and does not recommend surgery unless it will create the desired results. He took the time I needed and was very thorough and compassionate. He not only listened to me.. he heard me. Great office personnel as well. He's worth the wait to get in to see him. Thank you Dr Bobek and staff.
I have complete trust in and respect for Dr. Bobek. His empathy and thoroughness are inspiring and comforting.
