I think Dr. Fodera herself is a good doctor, but unfortunately, the staff and follow up were lacking. This was a very frightening time for me and I could not get anyone to call me back to provide a needed radiology prescription. It took a week and a half for a call back because the doctor was on vacation, which is baffling to me. The office staff was there. Wasn't there anyone to cover? When I finally had the RX sent to radiologist, it was for the wrong procedure and I was left waiting (for hours) for the Dr. Fodera's office to call back the Radiologist and send the correct RX. Once I explained everything to the office (Dr. Fodera does not get on the phone)I was basically dismissed. Oh well, sorry. Never again. We're going to Dr. Fodera for things that are stressful enough. The added stress and aggrevation is just not worth it. Now they want to charge me to get my medical records so I can go to another Doctor. Unbelievable!!!

I have been coming here for the past 4 yrs bc my dr referred her to me. I have to say the service there is horrible. They never return phone calls, long waits, and at time don't even have the reports on medicial procedures that have been done for the check up. I hate to leave being a high risk for cancer but I may have to.

I found Dr. Fodera to be a vary caring, compassionate person. Spent a long time discussing my problem and the suggested treatment.
