Patient Reviews
Oct 13, 2022
Dr Fuchs performed surgery on my 6 month old son for crainosynitosis (?) 14 years ago. In a time when my wife and I were totally devastated he and Dr Robert Marcus totally reassured us that it would be okay. Today, my son is GREAT and I cannot thank him and his staff enough. He will always be a HERO of mine and I hope that my son can meet him in the future. David Day. Columbia, SC
