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 Fossen is a beast
Dr Fossen is the guy I’d want with the ball when the game is on the line. I visited the ER yesterday morning at Lutheran General with a severe stomach bug (I was no match for this one) and Dr Fossen came up with a game plan to get me feeling better quickly. His Resident (forgot her name) was also very excellent and checked in on me a few times during my short stay there. Dr Fossen even complimented my Disney Tshirt (thanks for noticing, Doc). The ER is the one place you hope to not come back to, but if I do, there’s only one place I’m going, and that’s to see Fossen and his team. Thanks doc.
