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. Font has been fantastic from the day I met him which will always be a very grateful day as he literally saved my life. He r realized something was seriously wrong when I came for a rheumy visit and sent me to ER immediately with a script and I was admitted and stayed for over two weeks. He is very concerned about his patients and takes the time to explain lab results and answer questions you may have which I always do so his patience is one of his great qualities. To top it off, he has a great sense of humor which puts me as a patient at ease. Thank you for all that you do. So thankful to have you as my rheumatologist.

Dr. Font is an angel. I’m 29 weeks pregnant and today I went to his office in Weston with so much pain and without an appointment and he attended me with much care. He is a very professional, kind and compassionate doctor. The staff office was excellent and caring too. Definitely, 5 stars is not enough. Thank you so much!!! God bless you all!!!

Dr Font is a wonderful doctor with a very charming manner. He is very thorough but , at the same time "muy simpatico". He addresses every issue with concern , explanation and care. He is not in a hurry to move to the next patient. You won't find another like him. Five stars are not enough !

I love Dr. Font. I have seen him twice and he really listens. He takes lots of notes and asks a lot of questions to clarify. He looked at all of the possibilities for my health issues and ordered all of the tests that might be relevant. He didn't discount me as a complainer. He was genuinely trying to help me solve the puzzle. He is very down to earth and sincere. His follow up was very thorough and we came up with a plan that worked for me. I highly recommend him.
