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. Fenderson is always friendly. He listens and cares about all of your issues and proactively provides solutions. It has been a true pleasure to have him as my family doctor and he will be missed now that he is retiring.

Awesome great guy, and Doctor also?? Please don’t let him retire. He made me feel like a good friend as it appears from the other reviews they felt that way as well. He is genuine and he does care, not only about your health needs, but you and your family as well. I would feel honored to not only call him my doctor, but a friend as well. He has been my personal physician for I believe around 35 plus years, maybe 40. Always looked forward to our conversations, sometimes even discussed health issues??. Best wishes to him in his retirement. Certainly hope I get to interface with him in some fashion in the future.

DON’T RETIRE! Best and most caring doctor ever. Jonis Salk and Dr. Spock have nothing on him. Great dude and there will be a void in level of sincere care when he leaves. Nurse that took my blood yesterday was awesome too as were all of the ladies at the front desk. Friendly and funny. You let him retire and it will like Yoko breaking up The Beatles! I like your team so much that you can violate my HIPPA laws any time you want. Great practice. Caring team.

Great visit! Dr. Fenderson is always kind and gentle. He conveys professional.advice in a clear, concise manner. He offers sympathy to life’s ups and downs, but also provides his knowledge to help me correct my own health care short comings. For 30 years he has been there for me and my family.

Simply. The. Best. Period. Dr. Fenderson sets the bar extremely high- we've never experienced such open care, concern, and genuine friendship in a professional relationship. He will be terribly missed when he retires.

Dr Fenderson has treated me and my family for over the last 20 years. He is excellent in his diagnosis and treatment of most every illness. He was instrumental in following up with me after my heart attack. I would highly recommend him and I trust them thoroughly. If you physicians are as caring and compassionate as Dr Fenderson. I could discuss any of my almonds over the years and felt the really comfortable with his treatment.

Dr. Fenderson is an awesome doctor. He asks questions and listens attentively. He explains lab & test results, provides options for treatment, explains the pros & cons of each, & makes recommendations for the best treatment plan. He genuinely cares about my overall well being. Simply, he’s the best doctor I’ve ever had.

He has been my family dr. Since he started practicing in Virginia Beach. My husband and I love him and have total respect for him and his entire staff. We both feel he is responsible for saving our life with early diagnosis of serious health problems, he just can’t be replaced

Excellent as always He has been our family MD over 42 years. He is kind, caring and knowledgeable. He listens to the patient. We travel 30 miles one way to see him. He has provided care to my 96 year old mother and since 1977. She retains her good heath thanks to his direction and suggestion. Worried what we will do when he retires. He is one of a kind!
