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 Fonseca is the Ideal Family Doctor
There was practically 0 wait time, and the doctor took quite a lot of time to truly explain what was going on with my health. The staff at the clinic was very courteous and professional- I never had to be put on hold on the phone to discuss follow-ups or refills.

Feedback from visit
Telehealth
Dr. Fonseca did an excellent job helping me regulated my blood pressure that had been a problem for me for sometime. I also appreciated the thorough analysis of my blood work. He gave me a much better understanding of my thyroid results than I had received from other medical professionals. Dr. Fonseca listens well, very caring and generous with his time. I had scheduled and office appointment but had to do telehealth after contacting Covid 19.

Dr. Fonseca has been our family doctor for about 2 years. We all are happy with him. He is so tolerant and listen to me very carefully. He accepts urgent appointments, which helps me feel safe. He spends enough time and gives good information about problems. I positively recommend him.
