Without doubt she is the most caring and thorough physician I've seen in my 62 years. I can't find any fault with Dr . Fugelso or her stall. She removed my gall bladder which had become gangrenous and necrotic. My experience rated a ten from start to finish. Thank you Dr. Fugelso.

I cannot think of a better surgeon. Dr Fugelso did an outstanding job. She has a calm and confident manner, conveying well the impression of competence that is clearly there. Strongly recommend.

This is a great surgeon with excellent bed-side manners. She was calm, cool, and comforting when my husband had emergency surgery at 10:00 at night!

Dr. Fugelso is very professional. She explains everything in a way that a non medical person can understand. I had surgery and she was wonderful. She is caring and always makes enough time for her patients. I was so thankful that she was taking care of me.
