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.

Dr. Fontana saved my life in 2006. He and his team found a carcinoid tumor in my lung early. His bedside manner is one of a loving family member. When he revealed the tumor to me, it was the look in his eyes that somehow gave me strength for the news that followed. Very knowledgeable and caring about every patient. Heck, I'd venture to say everyone he encounters because you'd be hard pressed to find any of his NIH colleagues or staff that would say otherwise.
