Patient Reviews
Feb 25, 2025
Dr. Fenstermaker removed a meningioma tumor the size of a golf ball from my brain 9 years ago and was able to remove the whole tumor. He was thorough in explaining the surgical procedure and reassured me of his knowledge and expertise. Regular follow-up visits were scheduled over the past 9 years to be sure of no new growth of cells in the brain. He was compassionate and caring and genuinely concerned for me.
