Dr. Fonseca has always been direct and professional when I have to see him. He is good at listening and also calling me out when I don’t follow the recommended schedule of getting my blood work done. Dr. Fonseca’s staff is always very professional and also call me with reminders that my lab work is due. I am a diabetic and I would recommend Dr. Fonseca to anyone who is seeking A GREAT DOCTOR!!!

Office too dirty, staff too young , impolite, and unprofessional. Wait to see Dr. Fonseca for 2 hours and practically waist my time. I do not recommend this doctor.

Dr Fonseca is very thorough. He ALWAYS figures out what is wrong and helps me get over it. He is extremely smart. He makes sure I am covered on everything not just what I come in for. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great doctor they can count on.

I found Dr. Fonseca solely because I needed a Spanish speaking doctor for my 70 year old mother-in-law who was visting for a couple weeks from South America. She and my wife thought well enough of him that when I (and later my wife) needed a general doctor he is who I chose. I have not regretted it once. Dr. Fonseca is more responsive to inquiries and communicative than I ever expect from a doctor in today's age. There have been multiple times that his responsiveness has saved me an uneeded trip to the ER and saved me that horrible ER copay. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

I think this Dr. Fonesca is great. He explains everything is great detail and spends time with you asking you questions related to your illness. Very nice bedside manner.
