Dr. Michael Scott Fontenot, MD

Dr. Fontenot has been our son’s PCP, and he has been amazing to work with. Our son had a host of complications at birth, and coming out of the NICU was a miracle in itself! Needless to say, we wanted to choose a great pediatrician. As we asked around, Michael Fontenot came highly recommended. He is intelligent, informative, kindhearted, sincere, and allows us space and time to ask any questions we might have. Most of all, it’s very obvious he genuinely cares about our child. To us, that has meant everything—as the prognosis was grim from a medical perspective—and yet Dr. Fontenot has invested in our son as if he had the same value or chance as any other child. He has gone out of his way several times to check in on us. He has personally answered questions we had and been available within minutes of us calling from home, and any time he was tied up he made sure to direct us to a good place and follow up as soon as he could. My wife and I personally love the fact that he is not an… alarmist—although that may not be the style of other parents. We always leave feeling confident in our son’s health, and yet thoroughly taken care of. We have often found each other after a phone call with him, saying, “Gosh I love Dr. Fontenot!” He is outstanding as a professional, and is becoming a great friend as well.
