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. Fenster is a locums physician. For those who don't know: A locums is a person who temporarily fulfills the duties of another. For example, a locum tenens physician is a physician who works in the place of the regular physician when that physician is absent, or when a hospital/practice is short-staffed. he is highly trained and a compassionate Dr. Thank you for providing excellent care when you are needed!!!

Dr. Fenster is a true lifesaver. Not only did he help me with my heart issues, but he also recommended a nutrition plan that's helped me get better. I'm now healthier than i've been in years.
