Patient Reviews
Nov 28, 2017
Dr Fumo is by far the most thorough doctor I’ve every experienced! I’ve studied in the medical field and attended numerous appointments with family members over the years. He checks his own vitals instead of leaving it to the nurses and aides. He was detailed with taking history and asking questions. He also explained all conditions and test results to our understanding without using medical jargon. On top of being timely and thorough, Dr Fumo was very pleasant! I highly recommend him
