About Dr. Kovar

Dr. Kovar earned a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from UCLA in 1967 and his medical degree from the University of Southern California in 1971. He completed an internship at USC Medical Center in Los Angeles and internal medicine training at Kaiser Hospital/Sunset and UCLA Sepulveda Veterans Hospital. He has special interests in lipid management, diabetes and atherosclerosis, and his practice serves the San Fernando Valley area.

He says his practice is different from traditional primary care because it revolves around the patient's health, goals and needs. As an MDVIP-affiliated physician, he works as a private doctor with a focus on wellness and prevention. He enjoys reading, gardening, and float decorating for the City of Burbank in the Tournament of Roses Parade.
