I had a colonoscopy on 3/19/21 and I must say it was a very pleasant experience. I do not understand the negative reviews. Facility, staff and Dr. Mavec were kind, friendly and professional. Plenty of time was spent explaining what they were going to do and I was always asked if I had any questions. I would absolutely recommend them for your GI care.

I was diagnosed with fatty liver disease and was very afraid after finding out that diagnosis. Dr. Mavec calmed my worries and gave me suggestions to prevent my disease from worsening. He was not judgmental about anything. He was factual and to the point, but he delivered his concerns with warmth and care. All the things you want after finding out such a thing.

Dr. Mavec exhibited rude, unkind behavior. I went to the Overland Park Surgical Center for a colonoscopy and biopsy. I was a little scared and asked him about the procedure. He said, "You can go home if you want to. I'm not going to babysit you." Those were his only words to me. No one talked to me following the procedure. He spoke to other patients following the procedure, but he did not talk to me. A nurse gave me a paper about follow-up care. No one offered to offer assistance as I left the post-op room and walked to my c... read more

I went here for stomache pain, trouble swallowing, and constant change in bowel movements. He came in and didn't introduce himself and asked what was wrong. I tell him these symptoms and when he begins going over the medication list, he starts blaming my symptoms off on my medication. The issue with this is that I have been sick way longer than I have been on those medications which is what I told him. When I get stressed out, I apologize. I apologized and said that I was sorry and he asked why. I said that I thought I was b... read more

Today was my first appointment with Dr. Mavec and I was a little nervous based on reviews. However I have to say his office staff was very friendly and kind and Dr. Mavec seemed knowledgeable and gave me an opportunity to share my concerns. After some treatment discussion he asked if I had questions or if I needed to add anything else that I had not had a chance to share yet. I will be back to share more thoughts as my treatment progresses!

Worst experience I have had with a doctor. Don’t bother to ask a single question and his nurse Nikki is the rudest women I have ever encountered! Why get in the medical field if you’re not gonna have the patience to help people?

Dr. Mavec is hands down the best doctor I've ever visited. He is a rare find in that he is extremely knowledgeable (diagnosed me quickly and correctly after three other doctors failed to do so) AND a warm and wonderful bedside manner. He goes above and beyond to show he cares. He noticed I didn't have insurance the third time I came to visit him (recently), so he carefully explained which tests he thought were the most necessary and which he felt I could wait to do until I had insurance.

Horrible! Arrogant, rude and in no way made you want to ask him questions. I’d heard he has poor bedside manor but didn’t know it would be as bad as it was. He was the doc on call at the hospital so had no other choice but to see him. Confirmed all I’d ever heard about him from nursing friends and past patients. Would never recommend him!
