My entire family has been seen and treated by Dr. Labovitch! My daughter for growth pains in her ankles, my husband for a broken ankle and wrist, me for a torn ACL and a broken ankle, and now my son for a torn shoulder labrum. We come from a family of athletes so it was a no brainer to see Dr. Labovitch. First of all, he understands athletes (he is an athlete himself), he takes his time explaining the injury and providing you with all the options. He allows you to make the final decision and supports you. And most importantly, he makes you feel comfortable with the direction you want to go. Many doctors are quick to recommend surgery but Dr. Labovitch wants to make sure you get the treatment you are most comfortable with. I always tell him that I hope I never see him again but if I have to, I am glad it is him!
