Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Amazing work!
Dr. Fosnaugh is amazing! Will go to him if ever needed in the future! Very straight forward and professional.

Dr. Fosnaugh is a fantastic doctor
Dr Fosnaugh is a good listener. He gives his honest opinion and he explains options very well. He never makes me feel rushed, always takes time to explain everything. I would highly recommend him to everyone.

Took the deductible from me and then didn't bother to even examine me. 45 dollars and 30 minutes spent in the waiting room for him to shrug at me, pass the buck to a wound care specialist, and send me off all in 2 minutes. Didn't have a care in the world. It's very likely I have osteomyelitis.

Very pleased
Very happy with Dr Fosnaugh. Was immediately comfortable with him. Very attentive, caring surgeon. Listens to and addresses all my concerns. Never rushes through my appointments but, most importantly, he considers my other health issues when planning my treatment. Would highly recommend him.

Excellent
I truly believe Dr. Fosnaugh used common sense and logic, as well as his medical expertise in my appointment. Especially in today's medical climate where it is difficult to trust many in the medical community he was refreshing to meet with.

Initial visit for this injury about what I expect
Initial visit for knee injury. I got the attention I expected. This practice is in my insurance provider list. Had satisfactory treatment (surgery & rehab) three years ago for an unrelated injury through this office so willing to try to resolve my current problem through Orthocarolina again.

We visited recently for the first time the OrthoCarolina clinic because my son fractured his hand. Doctor Adam Fosnaugh, MD was verry helpful and explained everything in detail what we need to do. He explain the procedures he needed to do. His medical assisted was very helpful too. But as a clininic all togheter is very clean and everyone was so helpful and nice. Starting with the front desck and ending with the check out team and everyone in between.

I can't say enough positive things about Dr. Fosnaugh and the experiences I've had while under his care. He is the consummate professional and is very thorough and thoughtful in his exam and subsequent diagnosis. He is also a great person. I will always seek out Dr. Fosnaugh for any Orthopedic services, and heartily recommend him to you as well

Dr Fosnaugh performed my 2nd rotator cuff surgery, my first surgery 23 years ago went very well. When I had an accident and tire the opposite shoulder I came back to him fir the other side. He once again has done a great job. Pleased with my progress since February ' s surgery. I would reccomend him to anyone. Unlike so many doctors he takes his time with you very thorough on explaining his plan for you. I am/have been a Firefighter for t the past 29 plus years and feel very confident in him .

Very little wait time between check in and until you see the doctor. That includes getting X-rays. Dr. Fosnaugh appears to be down to earth and understanding. He answered my questions and didn’t act like he was in a hurry to get out of the room.
