Patient Reviews
Dr. Foont was awesome. Really nice and clearly extremely knowledgeable.
Couldn't have been more pleased by my appointment with Dr. Foont. Her staff was pleasant and efficient and I was with the doctor within five minutes of my appointment time. She was friendly, attentive, and respectful. She doesn't waste time and is very professional but I never once felt rushed or like she was just trying to get to her next appointment. Will definitely stick with this office and Dr. Foont and would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone in search of a doctor who is actually trying to help.
Dr. Foont was amazing! One of the best doctors I have ever seen. She was extremely personable, she made me feel very comfortable. Her staff was friendly and professional and I was seen at the exact time of my appointment, did not have to wait at all. I highly recommend Dr. Foont.
