Patient Reviews
Jan 04, 2019
After repeated trips to the emergency room and going to my; primary doctor, urologist, and nephrologist, I was referred to Dr. Fontenot. She studied my previous tests and diagnosed my condition that led to my eventual recovery during my first office visit. I am so relieved to have her as my primary healthcare doctor.
