Dr. Fontecha was excellent. Even though he and I don't always agree, he listens, and we come to the correct decisions about my care. He is a fabulous MD. I would not change providers for anything. I am glad I found him after Dr. Wallace left.

He's a great doctor, however, unfortunately timing is a huge problem with this doctor/office, in my experience.

Dr. Fontecha is great. I like him almost as good as Dr. Wallace. Dr.Fontecha cares about what I think, and is willing to work with me in my care instead of just dictating care. I am really glad I chose him as my PCP after Dr. Wallace

I had an excellent experience at this doctor's office. The staff was friendly, professional, and made me feel welcome from the moment I walked in. The doctor took the time to listen to my concerns, answered all of my questions, and explained everything clearly. I never felt rushed and truly felt that my health and well-being were a priority. The office was clean, organized, and efficient, and the entire team went above and beyond to provide outstanding care. It's not often you find a medical office that combines professionalism, compassion, and excellent customer service so well. I highly recommend this practice to anyone looking for quality healthcare."

Very nice

The doctor was not good at all. I explained I wanted to go over lab results and needed refills since my primary was booked until August. He said he was unable to login to his computer to see my records. Refused eye doctor referral and refused to give refill adequate enough to last Int my August appointment with my primary despite me having been a patient with my primary for 4 plus years. Recommended otc refresh eye drops Ins of referral to eye doctor to treat chronic sebhatic blepharitis - otc drops do nothing for this.

I tell all my friends and family looking for a dr to see dr FONTECHA. He's a great dr that explains everything and actually shows attentiveness and admits when he's unsure of something but willing to look up any info necessary to answer your question. He's the best dr I've had in years.

This is the first year with my PCP and I feel like I made a good choice with Dr Fontecha. He exhibited sincere concern about my wellness and potential health risks as it related to my lab results. Turns out that I am healthier than I thought I was, which provided motivation to continue prioritizing healthy choices.
