Dr. Fanning was great. I was a bit nervous about seeing a male gynecologist, but Dr. Fanning immediately made me feel comfortable by conversing with me about everyday things and explaining every little thing to me. He was super friendly and made the appointment a good one. Highly recommended.

Verified patient
Very nice and personable doctor however the wait was a bit long.
My visit was excellent! Relaxed, informative, and reassuring.
While the wait was excruciating, it was somewhat worth it. Dr Fanning was SO professional , he tended to the reason for my visit. I ended up needing to have a in hosp procedure with him and AGAIN, the wait was extensive. I don't know how to weigh ? Do you want a DR to hurry up - Or do you want thorough and concern. He's my GYN and because he CARES I'll see him again... Thanks DR Fanning..
Verified patient
The wait is always an hour or more. I just wanted a prescription renewal and apparently needed to be seen even though I have already had my annual exam, I waited for an hour and then left as I took the day off of work to make other appointments as well. So now I have to take more time off of work to make another appointment... Not pleased.

Verified patient
I did not have anyone in the area to ask for a referral so I chose Dr. Fanning directly from my insurance company's website - without knowing a thing about him. Well, I lucked out! He and his entire staff are very friendly and, being a new patient to his practice, every single one of them in the office took the time to really get to know me and my history. It made me feel like I was a real human being to them and not just the next patient or meal ticket. Thank you!
Verified patient
It is always a pleasure to be seen and treated by Dr. Fanning. He is very respectful and knows how to make you feel comfortable. I never plan on seeing another, if i can help it ! If you are questioning a visit with him! Don't! I can promise you won't regret it!
