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 Fennuci is my best doctor. I am 50. I had many doctors and doctor visits. She is the most caring and taking her time doctor I ever had. She has the best small home-like doctor's office. You do not even feel like your ar the doctor's office. The building looks like a home. The wait area looks like a living room. Only exam rooms when you need them remind you that you are at the doctor's office. Her staff is the best. Because of her insistence, I ended up taking two tests in the last few years, in one I was diagnosed early for a bacterial infection. I gave a blood sample because of her insistence, I was not going to do it. And recently I agreed to give another blood sample to screen for a certain disease. No doctor could convince me to do that but Dr. Fennuci. Recently my wife started seeing her too. God Bless her and her staff.

My elderly mother is a patient of Dr. Fanucci. I can;t say enough good things about our experience with her and her staff. Now that my mother is housebound, her office sends out a nurse, Lewis Chilumana for house calls and he is wonderful. He was sensitive and compassionate and quickly solved issues we were having with her care, eliminating and reducing several medications and supplements she was on that were making her drowsy and uncomfortable. She is now alert, talkative and we are able to get her out of bed without fainting episodes. Her quality of life is much improved. Can't thank the Dr and Mr. Chilumana enough.

I had great hopes after my first visit--she spent a lot of time with me, I felt we were on the same page in terms of health care. But my last two medical issues shared same response: rather than seeing me, she/her office bounced me to someone else. Didn't address the problem, and in the recent case, referred me to a specialist without even evaluating what the problem was. Maybe it's her office staff that needs to change, but I'm actively searching for a new primary care doctor.
