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.

Only problems since surgery
Following hernia surgery, y to his doctor did not only not know who I was at post op visit, but told me he doesn’t do my kind of surgery in the same way “ any more. Two years later, I have had nothing but problems in the navel area where he did surgery. . I would not recommend this person for any surgical procedure.

Terrible standard of care/coordination at MUSC by Dr Fann. My parents were in a car wreck and ended up in Dr Fanns care at MUSC for 3-4 days. We asked to speak with him several times to find out what was going on but never saw or heard from him. My dad got severely dehydrated in the hospital because they wouldn’t let him eat or drink in case he needed surgery but didn’t put him on an iv!! He did not get his normal meds for afib so heart was acting up. After almost 2 days they finally started giving him his heart pills but he was throwing up snd couldn’t keep them down so his heart rhythm was bad. Again-should have gotten meds thru iv. Finally got food and I forced nurses to give him iv. Dad lost 6 lbs in 3 days and he’s not a big guy. Parents got worse in hospital instead of better. I have never experienced such a poor standard of care, lack of coordination. Saw 1 geriatric dr while there-never saw/got a call from Fann who was supposedly in charge of their care. Not impressed with MUSC
