I feel that they really value my pursuit of a healthy lifestyle because they followed up with me to make certain that things are going well. This makes a great difference in a patience recovery time and comfort. It was easy obtaining an appointment. Their schedule always works around mine and they get me in quickly every time. I am so thankful for the level of service I receive. Dr Marinkovich and his knowledgeable staff are fully qualified to completely handle my large family’s healthcare including my wife and daughters’ feminine health. Their on-site testing facilities allow for quick, efficient, and cost effective turn around on diagnosing all of our health concerns. They made sure that their qualifications were obvious, giving us confidence in their ability to provide our family with professional service. The doctors are knowledgeable, well read, leaders in education, authors, and committed community volunteers.

I have a serious work related injury. My chiropractor suggested that I go see Dr. Marinkovich in order to get a prescription for an anti-inflammatory. First of all, when I called in to get an appointment, the office assistant tried her very best to get my insurance information out of me more than once. If you have an L and I case you do not need to provide your insurance information. She told me I was wrong. Then I show up for the appointment 10 minutes early to fill out paperwork regarding medical history. I was 1 of 2 people in the waiting room/lobby. I finished the paperwork in 10 minutes. 45 minutes later, I was called back to a room. I was then left to sit there for 10 more minutes before the doctor came in. He asked me all of the questions that I had already answered on the paperwork that I filled out. He then threw 2 robes on the bed and said "Change into these." He then left for 5-10 minutes to make a few phone calls. When he returned he asked me, because of where I work, if I knew a certain person. This person happens to be my manager. He then proceeded to say "She is a patient here. That woman has had quite the battle." He kept going before I cut him off and redirected his focus. He asked me what my pain level was at and I told him that I was at about a 7. He then proceeded to jab (not just lightly poke) my back. I was instantly in so much pain that I started to cry and he said I'm sorry but I have to do this if you want answers. He roughly, very roughly, poked around my back for a few minutes. He then sat down and said that I needed to discontinue all types of therapy and start taking medication instead. He said that before we continued he would need to take X-rays, mri's and have another examination done. He did not trust the chiropractor's diagnosis of my back and said that I should basically start from scratch and that he would set it all up for me. At this point, I told him that I wanted a second opinion and he said "Oh, so you don't feel that today went well? Do you mind telling me why?" I was still crying at this point and I told him that I didn't think that I owed him any kind of explanation and that if we were done here that I would like to leave. He stayed in the room for multiple minutes more and tried to bully my reasoning for wanting to leave out of me. I have had serious back problems for 10 years and have seen a wide variety of doctors. This was, by far, the worst experience that I have ever had with a medical professional. If you have another option for a doctor, I highly encourage you to take that option and to stay far FAR away from this doctor.

They made sure every single question I had was answered, and are always available if I think of any more questions I want answered. Their staff is the most friendly, welcoming staff I've ever dealt with. They are so warm and professional, and make the whole experience that much better. Works with other specialty doctors to find the right treatment. Staff works with insurance to process claims. Flexable in getting an appointment changed or on short notice.

I appreciated that they were still concerned about my health even after I left the office. They followed up with me after my appointment and everything. I'll definitely be going back. I didn't have a bad experience. I will definitely refer my friends and family here. They were great and I think more people should know about them.

I think Dr. Marinkovich is the best Doctor I have ever had--and I've had some great ones in Canada and the United States. When you go to see Dr. Marinkovich, he sees and cares for the person you are and not the illness you have. He's knows his stuff, he spends plenty of time with you, he's easy to talk with and he does not take shortcuts. The office staff are friendly, efficient and professional.
For the men out there - you need Dr. Frank as your Doctor. He will help you stay healthy. For the wives out there - your husbands need Dr. Frank. He may just save your husband's life so that you and your children have him around for a long time.

They went out of their way to make me feel special and respected, and were very sympathetic to my situation. I've never seen more kindness and empathy anywhere else. I've been to one or two places that had a really bad smell. I was worried I would encounter it here too but I didn't notice anything. When comparing them to others I have visited for the same condition, they are among the best I have seen. I was very satisfied with my visit. They were helpful and I left feeling encouraged. They've never dismissed any of my concerns as unimportant, and take every concern of mine very seriously.
