First visit was amazing. I was greated immediately. Checked in 15 mins early (I did the before visit check in)and they were in the lobby to get me with in 1-2 mins. DO the before visit check in saves yourself and everyone else a lot of time when you get there. Dr. Fenton and my nurse were very personable and made sure I had everything I needed. Very comforting environment when it comes to being in a doctor's office. Also enjoy that they are straight to the point with treatments that will work/help and telling you want needs to be done to make things work vs winging it with random "lets see if this works" situations.

Dr visit was fine. Had to wait 15 minutes in the room before he came in.

Absolutely wonderful. Got me in quickly before appointment time even. Barely waited in room for Dr to come in. Talked me through issue and also saw me for a whole body scan and any other issues I had. Very reassuring and professional. The whole visit was seamless and I felt well cared for.

Excellent experience.

Dr Fenton listened, he was knowledgeable, and just had the presence of a doctor you can trust. Editing to add he also has great staff. I got a message from our insurance company that our prescription had been denied. I sent a message to the office and that day someone from Dr Fenton’s staff called me to say they got it approved and sent to the pharmacy! 🙌

Dr Fenton was very professional & personable, he put me at ease right away. He made sure I understood what the procedure was he was going to do and the next steps. He completed the procedure with minimal discomfort. I definitely would recommend Dr Fenton.

Google Reviews • Forefront

Dr Fenton was personable and seemed very knowledgeable of the spot I was concerned about. He explained right away what it was and assured me it was not pre-cancerous. He told me some options I have if I choose too. If my regular doctor would be unavailable and I need to be seen, i would definitely see him again.
