“Time is passing. Yet, for the United States of America, there will be no forgetting September the 11th. We will remember every rescuer who died in honor. We will remember every family that lives in grief. We will remember the fire and ash, the last phone calls, the funerals of the children.” — George W. Bush #September11 #patriotsday #neverforget

“What a relief! I came to Idaho Foot and Ankle for a 2nd opinion about an ankle injury, and I am so glad I did!! I called on a Friday in hopes of being seen sooner than later, and they were able to get me in same day!! Super friendly team all around! Dr. Erickson was attentive and took time to include me in the plans of how to proceed. We decided to try the laser treatment to see if inflammation would go down. The laser tech, Keidryn, was AMAZING!! She made the whole process comfortable and enjoyable. I just finished my 2nd week of treatment and swelling/pain did go down! Though my injury isn’t fully recovered yet, I will definitely keep coming to these guys for my ankle care!”---Jennifer R.

"Always on time, works quickly but cautiously, courteous, helpful, and never rushes through his patients. When I had an infection and open wound left by Achilles tendon surgery, by another doctor, Dr. Kovac found the problem quickly, cleared the infection, and healed the wound. I have not had any problems since the procedure. With my regular diabetic foot check every two months he takes his time and answers all of my questions completely. Dr. Kovac and his staff truly care for their patients and their welfare. I now consider him not just my doctor but a friend. I know he will always take care of me and give me the right advice and I believe him to be one of the best if not the best doctor I have ever had." --T. Monroe
