Dr. Kovach is a native of the Northwest, having been born and raised in Oregon. After graduating from Oregon Health Sciences University, he completed residency training at George Washington University in Washington, D.C. Wanting to return to the Northwest, he came to Seattle and was with the University of Washington for 12 years treating patients with cancer and blood disorders at Harborview Medical Center. While having authored research articles and several clinical book chapters during that time, his primary interest was patient care. Living with his partner Jan and their two girls, he decided to commit to focusing on patient care on the Eastside.

He came to Overlake and Overlake Internal Medicine Associates in 1999. Board certified in internal medicine, medical oncology and hematology, he currently practices in all areas of oncology and hematology, but has a special interest in blood-related cancers such as lymphoma and leukemia, as well as all solid malignancies including lung, breast and colon cancer.
