    Philosophy of care | I apply evidence-based medicine to provide primary care that treats existing problems, prevents future issues and uncovers health risks. I firmly believe the best care is prevention. During the opioid crisis I gained experience managing substance use disorders as well as treating and preventing infectious diseases. My goal is helping patients better manage chronic conditions, prevent complications and hospitalizations, and establish healthier habits using all applicable therapies. | Why I entered medicine | Our large family valued health and work. One of my sisters was a nurse, and I watched her help our family, neighbors and in the clinic with her expertise and skills. That impressed me tremendously and gave me the impetus to pursue a medical career. It gives me a great satisfaction to help others in an immediate and concrete way, and to walk with them on their journey to healing. | Community involvement | My family and I just moved from New York, where I worked the past 30 years. I am looking forward to being involved in the community regarding environmental conservation and habitat preservation. We love animals. | Personal interests | I love to be with my family, which includes six dogs, two cats, two parrots and several chickens. We enjoy long walks with the dogs, playing tennis and ping-pong, and cooking traditional family dishes on the weekends.

    Philosophy of care | My approach is built on a simple premise: partnership. When you step into my office, we begin by thoroughly understanding your unique medical history and health landscape. My goal is to work collaboratively with you, serving as an active guide on your health journey. | I believe in integrating targeted lifestyle modifications into every treatment plan, as these tools are essential for achieving better overall health and sustainable results. Ultimately, I am here to provide the expertise, tools, and personalized strategy you need to achieve your goals and significantly improve your quality of life. | Why I entered medicine | From an early age, I was drawn to the field of medicine. My academic success and deep interest in the sciences, particularly human physiology, fueled my desire to apply this knowledge to directly benefit others. The practice of medicine has proven to be a profoundly rewarding career path. After a period in Family Medicine, I transitioned to Obesity Medicine. This specialty choice was deeply personal and professionally motivated: having successfully managed my own significant weight loss—nearly 100 pounds—through medical management, I am uniquely positioned to guide and empower patients to achieve their health goals in this specialized area. | Community involvement | I am a member of the Obesity Medicine Association (OMA), The Obesity Society (TOS), American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP), American Osteopathic Association (AOA), Pennsylvania Osteopathic Medical Association (POMA), and Association of Family Medicine Residency Directors (AFMRD). | Personal interests | I enjoy spending time with family and friends, reading, watching movies, and spending time at the beach.

    Philosophy of care | As an athlete growing up, teamwork has always been a huge facet of my life. This is no different in medicine, not just with staff but also with each and every patient. My philosophy has always been to work alongside you to help you with any illness or injury. I have also learned that it is extremely important to truly allow time for listening, as doing just this will solve many diagnoses. By working together, it is fascinating how much progress we can make. | Why I entered medicine | My dream ever since I was a little girl was to become a physician. I have always been very service-oriented, and being able to help others in need really allows me to find my purpose. I also consider myself a lifelong learner, and in the field of medicine, it is a necessity to be able to keep up-to-date with all of the fast-paced changes that constantly occur. | Community involvement | I have been very active in the community serving both at the local fire company and ambulance station. I have been an active member at South Cass Citizens’ Fire Company (Primrose) and Minersville EMS for the past 15 years. Fire and EMS calls provide a much different environment compared to a controlled office or hospital setting, and they allow me to be involved in the initial stabilization and treatment of patients on some of their worst days with the hope of making things better. I am also a lector at Saint Michael the Archangel Parish in Minersville. | Personal interests | I have what I consider to be a second career as a soldier in the Pennsylvania Army National Guard. I am currently a Captain in the Medical Detachment at Fort Indiantown Gap in Annville, Pa. My dream growing up has always been to serve both my country and community, and this opportunity allows me to do just that. | My family is certainly the most important part of my life. They have been by my side through all of the ups and downs, always there to encourage me when I had doubt. Without them, I would not be where I am today, and for them, I am and will always be truly thankful. | In my spare time, I enjoy exercising often (I use this as my stress reliever), and of course making up for lost calories by eating ice cream!. Dr. Kalovcak is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Obesity in Children. Her clinical expertise encompasses Glucocorticoid-Remediable Aldosteronism, Hypertension, Familial Hypertension, and Sitosterolemia.

    What is the definition of Obesity in Children?

    Obesity in children means having a weight that is higher than what is healthy for a child's height. Obesity is a serious, chronic condition. Over time, it can lead to other health problems, including diabetes, heart disease, and some cancers.

    When should I see an Obesity in Children doctor near Pine Grove, PA?

    There are various reasons why you may want to see a specialist, such as: 

    • Your primary care provider recommends it. 
    • Your condition requires expert knowledge and specialized care. 
    • Your symptoms persist or worsen despite treatment. 
    • You need specialized testing or procedures. 
    • You want a second opinion.  

    What should I consider when choosing an Obesity in Children doctor near Pine Grove, PA?

    It’s important to see a provider with expertise in your specific condition. Each provider profile in MediFind’s doctor database includes information on which conditions they treat, years of experience, research contributions, languages spoken, insurance plans accepted, and more.  

    How does MediFind rank Obesity in Children doctors near Pine Grove, PA?

    MediFind’s rankings are based on a variety of data sources, such as the number of articles a doctor has published in medical journals, participation in clinical trials and industry conferences, as well as the number of patients that provider sees for a given condition. Note that MediFind’s provider database is not based on user reviews, and providers do not pay to be included in the database. 

    What types of insurance are accepted by Obesity in Children doctors near Pine Grove, PA?

    Most profiles in MediFind’s doctor database include a list of insurance plans accepted by that provider. However, it’s a good idea to contact the provider’s office to make sure they still accept your insurance, then doublecheck by contacting your insurance plan to confirm they’re in network. 

    How can I book an appointment online with an Obesity in Children doctor near Pine Grove, PA?

    MediFind offers direct scheduling for certain providers using the “Request Appointment” button on that provider’s profile. If the schedule option is not available for a provider, tap the red “Show Phone Number” button on their profile to get their contact information. If you prefer to find providers who offer online scheduling, select “Schedules online” under the “Availability” category of the filter feature on the left side of the Obesity in Children doctor search results page. 

    Why is it important to get a second opinion from a different Obesity in Children doctor?

    Second opinions are an opportunity to confirm a diagnosis and its root cause, learn about alternative treatment options, or simply gain peace of mind. Many people, especially those with serious diagnoses, get second opinions so they can understand all their options and make informed decisions, so don’t hesitate to get one if you have any doubts or need more information or clarification regarding your care. Note that some insurance plans require second opinions, while others don’t cover second opinions, so be sure to confirm with your insurance provider first.   

    How can I prepare for my appointment with an Obesity in Children doctor near Pine Grove, PA?

    Prepare for your appointment by gathering the following items: 

    • Copies of medical records (dating back at least one year) 
    • Your medical history, including illnesses, medical conditions, surgeries, and other doctors you see 
    • Family history of disease 
    • List of current prescription drugs, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal remedies or supplements including names and doses 
    • Allergies to medications, food, latex, insects, etc.  
    • List of questions and concerns 
    • Your insurance card 

    You might also contact the provider’s office to see if they offer transportation or childcare services or if you’re allowed to bring a loved one for support or to take notes during your visit. 

    What questions should I ask my Obesity in Children doctor?

    Here are some sample questions: 

    • Can you explain in simple terms what this condition is and how it’s treated? 
    • What symptoms or side effects should I watch for? 
    • What tests will be involved, and when can I expect results? 
    • Are there other specialists I need to see? 
    • What’s the best way to reach you if I have follow-up questions? 

    How can I learn about the latest clinical trials and research advances my Obesity in Children doctor may know about?

    MediFind’s Clinical Trials tool asks you a series of questions to help you narrow down your search by health condition, age, gender, location, how far you’re willing to travel, and more. Each question you answer filters down the number of trials until you find the ones that are most relevant to you. 

    MediFind’s Latest Advances tool features summaries of recent articles published in medical journals. We use cutting-edge technology to scour medical publication databases for the latest research advancements on any given condition, then we simplify this information in a way that’s useful and easy to understand. 

    Can I filter my search to show male or female Obesity in Children doctors near Pine Grove, PA?

    Look for the filter feature on the left side of the Obesity in Children doctor search results page. Select “Female” or “Male” under the “Gender” category to search for female or male providers exclusively. If the “Any” option is selected, it will pull results for both male and female providers. 

    Can I filter my search to find an Obesity in Children doctor that offers video calls?

    Look for the filter feature on the left-side of the Obesity in Children doctor search results page. Select “Offers telehealth visits” under the Availability category to search for providers who offer virtual appointments (video calls).
