He goes above and beyond!!! He once called me on a Friday night for 45 minutes while researching my daughter's condition online. He has always had a knowledgeable advice nurse which saved us unnecessary office visits. He is wonderful!!

We have been going to Dr. Fennell for years and have always been more than satisfied with the service and care we have received. Dr. Fennell really takes his time with each patient to ensure the best care possible. He isn't motivated by financial gain in prescribing medication, in fact he only has done so with us when no other reasonable options are possible. He has a wealth of knowledge and truly cares about our children. We have come to know and respect him and look forward to many more years of great care.

Sunrise Pediatrics is the best in the area. I drive from Garner to see Dr. Fennell. I have often thought about switching to an office closer to my home but can't seem to do it. We have been with Dr. Fennell since my daughter was born 8 weeks premature and she is now 14. If you need a WONDERFUL Pediatric office - Sunrise is it! Everyone is very friendly including the receptionist!

I cannot say enough about Dr. Fennell and the entire staff at Sunrise Pediatrics!! His office came highly recommended from friends and colleagues and we could not be more pleased with the care we have received. I would highly recommend if you want a warm, caring, and extremely knowledgeable pediatrician!
