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. Fuenning was very thorough. He is very knowledgeable. He spent a lot of time with me. I am so glad he was recommended to me. He became my doctor and I have faith in him. I am very grateful.

Initially I like the doctor and his office, but poor communication after having a test done. I waited for two weeks for a call back after multiple calls to their office and finally spoke to the office manager who placed the blame on me. I do not recommend this doctor or his office.

Saw him for a family member’s lung cancer diagnosis. He is extremely thorough, has a calm demeanor, and explains things excellently. He respectfully listens to and answers all questions. A few times our appointment has gone over an hour but he doesn’t rush us. He’s a wonderful doctor with a great bedside manner.

Great bedside manner. Takes the time to thoroughly explain everything... in simple language... that a 12 year old can understand.

My appt was at 230. At 225 as I was walking into office, I saw my dog getting into trash I accidentally left by front door. I have security cameras in my house. I told staff and asked if I could go home and get rid of trash and check on my dog. They told me if I leave I would have to wait couple months. I decided to wait as I could see on cameras dog was okay. At 3PM, 30 minutes after appt time, dr fuenning still not in office. I left at 300 PM. I was fired for leaving. Dog is okay

Dr Feunning is my hero. When I was 27 yrs old,working as a secretary on the cancer ward in a certain hospital in 1987, he was resident there. The staff,all 4 of them, smoked at the front desk all night long. I went home and coughed all night. He told me to write a letter to the head of the hospital. I did. She changed that hospital to non smoking. She stopped me and told me that my letter prompted her to make this change.Dr Feunning and I had a major victory. He's been my asthma dr for 30 years!
