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.

It's never fun to be diagnosed with a very large ovarian mass, but Dr. Fenton did an amazing job removing the mass with minimal surgery! He saved me from having a hospital stay and weeks of incisional pain. His bed side manner is great, he takes the time to explain everything and answer questions, and you really feel like he cares about you as a patient. I can't send him enough thanks for the time he spent saving me from a longer recovery. Highly recommend.

Dr. Fenton has been my doctor for nearly 20 years. My condition was severe. He was always fair, conservative and left the decisions to me. 2 laparoscopies, 2 beautiful children and ultimately a complete hysterectomy later, he gave me my life back with that last operation. I would recommend him to anyone that wants a doctor that not only listens but cares about his patients. I have never felt more safe.
