Patient Reviews
Dec 22, 2021
Dr. Fomberstein is a great doctor. He has been my rheumatologist for 13 years. He’s very attentive to any changes in my blood work and is quick to request additional test before recommending medications. I appreciate that he didn’t just prescribe me a steroid when it was unnecessary. He’s a very kind , patient and thorough man.
