Patient Reviews
Sep 21, 2016
Dr. Fecther is one of the most caring and helpful doctors I have ever seen. His willingness to explain things and go out of his way to help me, even after hours if I call, is like no other physician I've seen. I've got complex multi system medical problems, and he takes the time to try and get to the bottom of things. When I have questions or don't understand something, he goes above and beyond to make sure I know what's going on.
