I started going to Dr. Stevanovic back in September 2019. I showed up for my originally scheduled appointment, to find out it was cancelled. They had called and left me a voicemail two days prior, about it being cancelled however I never saw it. They then rescheduled me for a few weeks later, and all was good. At the appointment a few weeks later the Dr. insisted on only meeting me, and wanted to send me for blood work prior to doing my physical. I thought this was odd, since I am in my young 20s and healthy and simply just needed a physical. But, I figured it wasn't a big deal and scheduled an additional appointment for a physical. My physical appointment that was a few weeks later ended up being cancelled, and I decided to not reschedule due to my busy schedule. Fast forward to May of 2020, I called the office to have a physical done since I was going out of town for a physical agility test for a LE position. The office got me right in and was willing to sign the necessary paperwork for my physical agility test. However, the Dr treated me very oddly. I was first seen by the Medical Student, who was wonderful, he asked me typical questions about my health, and was very polite, he was to the point and professional. Then the Dr Stevanovic walked in, as soon as he walks in he put his hand on my chin and goes "Wow what an ugly girl we need to get you to a dermatologist, you really are beautiful I'm just kidding babe". The extent of his medical exam was listening to my lung sounds, that was all he did. Then he spent 45 minutes lecturing me on how I'm "too pretty and nice to be a police officer", "you don't want to play with guns they kill people and turn you into a bad person" and "you should consider a nursing position you can work for me beautiful". After lecturing me on my career choices, he proceeded to ask me questions about my significant other. None of these questions seemed to be necessary for my medical exam. Luckily, paperwork was signed for my physical agility test. However I felt like the Dr was extremely unprofessional, and I felt uncomfortable due to his behavior towards me. The Dr wanted me to go get blood work and do a follow up, with him. He stated he wanted to rule out diabetes, despite me having no symptoms of it. I think it is very odd that he wants to do a follow up after blood work, for a condition I have no symptoms of. I am not sure if this is his way of getting more money out of my insurance or his way of seeing a young lady again. Overall, I DO NOT recommend this Dr. If you are a young female or involved in emergency services, do not waste your time and money with him. read more

My partner went to Ithaca primary care for a while. The doctor forced him to get drug tested to make sure he was the one taking his medication and then drug tested him for marijuana without his consent. He then threatened to take away his medication. My partner was too anxious to go back and was not able to refill his medication after that, causing him to be demoted. He then lost his job because of Covid-19, but is sure if he had been able to take his medication he would still be working. My partner left a google review, which Ithaca Primary Care paid google to remove, so it can't be seen by anyone trying to get an idea of what Ithaca Primary Care is about. It's extremely unprofessional and based off of other reviews that have since been removed, dr. stevanovic likes to harass his patients. read more

Dr. Stevanovic has been my primary care doctor since 2017. He is older, and has an off-beat sense of humor which, as an older patient, I find to be quite funny but, truly, he is not a sexist man and is not a man who would intentionally make a patient uncomfortable. So the person who left a prior review might have not understood his humor. He's just more old-school re his patient banter. However, in terms of the important thing, the MEDICAL CARE, he is excellent in diagnostics and frequently sends people for blood work and any other tests he feels are necessary, either before or following a physical. This has helped a great deal in terms of my own health care. He has paid far more attention to things that other physicians would never have considered. He is especially excellent and very knowledgeable with his diabetic patients. At my first office visit, I learned more in 45 minutes about diabetes than I'd learned in the prior 10 years at my last doctor's office. Finally, he is the only doctor I've ever known who has telephoned my home on a Sunday morning to discuss a prescription he's sent to the pharmacy on a weekend or other matters relating to lab work results. He is very available to his patients. He has dramatically helped me get much better control of my diabetes and other health issues. He is one of the few doctors in this day and age whom I feel REALLY CARES about his patients. I wholeheartedly and unreservedly recommend him. read more
