Desmond Fonji's Online Review Report Card

A good doctor that doesn’t waste your time with tons of appointments but gets you what you need the first time and listens if you have any concerns. Excellent!

Don't go to this doctor if you value your health.

I went to Dr Fonji once and will not be back. Look elsewhere if you don’t want to be charged incorrectly for your visit. I came in for the first time for a wellness visit, which is fully covered by my insurance. He asked about my medical history which we discussed briefly. I was later billed for the appointment and found out through insurance this was billed as an “illness” visit. I called to inquire. The NP was immediately defensive and counted off that she saw TWELVE illnesses on my chart from the visit (I have 0, one if you include the allergies I advised him of). The NP made me very uncomfortable on the call, stating nothing can be done and then getting frustrated and without getting into detail, suffice to say she was extremely unprofessional. Their claim for why I was billed is because I am a new patient, which no other doctor has ever done for this type of scenario, and the visit was specifically billed as “ILLNESS”. They were uncooperative in actually proving that this is an acceptable reason to bill me.

Dr Fonji is a nice doctor, but his staff is so lacking in people skills, patient privacy, and knowledge.. If he cleared out his staff and started over, he would probably be better off.

Dr. Fonji is my primary care physician. I recently received my regularly scheduled wellness checkup. Dr. Fonji reviewed all of my test results with me explaining anything that was of interest, then reviewed all of my current prescriptions. Then answered all my questions and concerns.
