“Dr. Fontenot was excellent. He was on time and very pleasant to deal with. He diagnosed the problem clearly and presented a plan of treatment in a logical manner. He is the first physician in Asheville to correctly diagnose my orthopedic issue in the past 2 years. We discussed options for surgery now versus later, which was very helpful. He also counseled me on what I could do now to have an optimal surgery result in the future. He is a great addition to EmergOrtho, and I highly recommend him.”
