Review content:
After my first long wait for an appointment in the waiting room, I immediately understood why, and forgave. Once the doc has you in the examination room, he gives you 100% of his attention and time. You feel as if the rest of the world does not exist, and all his time is for you. He is all that I expect a doctor to be (so many fall so terribly short). Compassionate, reviews your record, asks whole-health questions, listens to your answers, does not rush you, explains things in terms any person can understand, discusses possible cause of illness, does not just treat symptoms, trys to educate his patients, genuinely cares about his patients, excellent bedside manner, keeps himself up to date in the field of medicine. Employs a capable, comforting and friendly staff. Many lab tests, e-rays etc. can be done on site. You get immediate results. He has been my doctor since 1989. I now live overseas, but when in Houston and need a doctor, he is the first and only one I will go to. Even when I moved across town Houston, I always returned to ""Doc Fontanier"" - well worth the trip (and the wait.)
Pros: compassionate, thorough, many services on site
Cons: only one:sometimes long wait in waiting room
