I would like to tell you a story - one that spans the years from 1980 to the present. It is a story of a man who followed his dreams and aspirations by using the talent and gifts that God had given him to the fullest! He is a podiatrist and his name is Dr. Jerome Dovberg.

He is a very competent and knowledgeable physician and, through the years, he has treated every member of my family. Each of our three daughters have received excellent medical care from him when athletic injuries assailed them as a result of gymnastics, soccer and other sports activities offered within the Prince William County school system. Dr. Dovberg treated my husband, over a period of almost two years, for a very severe ankle condition which threatened his health and the functionality Of his right foot and ankle. The treatment was conservative and successful. At the present time he is treating me for a bone spur condition affecting my left heel.

In his own words "... I treat people, not just feet." His respect for people of all ages, his encouragement, kindness and compassion can only be translated into "love in action!" Dr. Dovberg's sincerity and empathy for each and every one of his patients - from the youngest to the oldest person - is obvious, and each cannot help but know his concern for them. I have witnessed youngsters, students, middle aged and seniors - some healthy, some affected by Alzheimer's, leave him more content with his medical care for them and laughing with him because of a shared joke or with tears in their eyes because of a shared life experience. They all experienced the tangible love and joy of being with him.

To Dr. Dovberg - Thank you for the joy, the many fond memories, but most of all for all, of the love you have showered on each member of my family. We are so proud to know you as our doctor and as a dear friend. May God continue to bless your life and your family as well - as you have truly blessed ours!

Most sincerely,
Mrs. Yvonne (Eve) Cameron

My brother-in-law and sister insisted that I travel from Brooklyn, New York to Woodbridge, Virginia to have an operation performed on my left foot by Dr. Jerome Dovbero. I needed surgery on my foot to correct a number of painful problems. These tedious procedures were tirelessly and expertly performed by Dr. Dovberg. I was in the Operating Room for a number of hours and had absolutely no problems during or after the surgeries.

My left foot has recovered completely and I no longer have a gigantic painful bunion and severely angled, painful, overlapping hammertoes. I can now wear shoes without pain. I hardly recognize my left foot.

I gladly recommend Dr. Dovberg as a competent and compassionate Podiatrist and Surgeon.

Dear Dr. Dovberg and Sandi,

I can't tell you how much I appreciate the RX and Sandi's trek to the post office to get it to me.

There is NO "Dr. Dovberg" in the entire area of Santa Fe and Albuquerque N. M. I have tried ... but no more! I will journey back to Alexandria, Virginia when my feet hurt and my toes curl. You are a very special doctor - Dr. D. - Senor Dovberg.

My warmest regards to you both. I miss you!

I have received exceptional service from Dr. Dovberg ever since I first contacted his office. Although I did not have an appointment, he arranged to see me that very same day. He immediately relieved my pain, providing exceptional service both in terms of medical treatment and a caring manner. When My problems recurred several years later, I called Dr. Dovberg, who demonstrated the same skill and caring that had so pleased me several years before. I would heartily recommend Dr. Dovberg to anyone with a podiatric problem.

I have been under this amazing', doctor's care for 24 years now, and I can't imagine going to anyone else for my foot care. Dr. Dovberg is compassionate, talented, innovative and committed to providing the "gold standard" in patient care. '1 have unusual foot problems due to my cerebral palsy and advancing middle-age. Dr. Dovberg has shown a remarkable ability to adapt his treatment to my evolving circumstances. He and his hardworking staff are unfailingly helpful. In addition to his unique medical talents, Dr. Dovberg also has terrific instincts and a wonderful "bedside manner" - and a dry wit and sense of humor that always have me looking forward to my next office visit!! Most of all, Dr. D. has an incredible ability to provide individualized care to his patients - people of all ages and a full spectrum of situations - and he constantly has displayed great sensitivity and professionalism in all of my dealings with him over more than two decades. I look forward to continuing under his excellent care for many years to come!

I wanted you to have a token of my appreciation for all of the time, effort and countless x-rays that you have put into my care. This has been a tough year, but you've been with me every step of the way and I thank you ever so much!

You are certainly in the right profession - your dedication to your patients comes shining through, even when you are weary. And I consider myself to be very lucky to be under your care. Thank you, again, for taking care of not just my broken bones, but of me as a person! May you receive, in equal measure, all of the kindness you so freely give away.
Very sincerely,

Debbi Carter
Triangle, Virginia
