There is no other doctor like Dr.Fanta. He is the best doctor you will ever meet. He makes you feel at ease. He covers your entire history and gives a full exam. He has a wonderful bedside manner and truly cares about his patients. He truly loves his work and his patients. You aren’t just another file number when you see him. He is the most awesome and knowledgeable doctor I have ever met. He saved my life! For that I will always have a place in my heart that admires and loves this man. He is true to his Hippocratic oath and is a true healer.
