Dr Ivker always makes me feel heard. He listens to all my concerns and explains them in a way I can understand. I’m usually in & out within an hour. I came to him with a problem I’ve had for ten years and I felt better just three months after seeing him. He’s not hesitant to ask for more testing or send referrals to specialist. I’m so thankful and don’t plan on going anywhere else!
