Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Love Dr Fathala. Office staff, not so much…
Dr Fathala has been caring for our Son for a little over a year. He has been Great. He is very thorough with his treatment. ALTHOUGH he does need to adjust his office / nursing staff. We have had a horrible experience every single time we’ve had to deal with the office. Not to mention my sons other Doctors (other offices) that rely on communication with Dr Fathala office have had the same horrible experience. It takes MULTIPLE phone calls to get anything done. Ie presccriptions filled / adjusted , test results (directly from another specialist). We were even LAUGHED at on the phone by one individual (No names) in the office. This is completely unacceptable. It is tough enough having a child with an illness most of his life. Shouldn’t have to deal with these headaches every time you contact the Drs office. I want to give less stars but don’t want to hurt Dr. Fathalas rating. Sorry Dr. but we’ll be looking for a new rheumatologist. Thank you for everything but his experience has just
