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.

Uncaring Doctor!
I had surgery with this doctor after a lumpectomy. While the results of the surgery were okay, the process of getting there was barbaric. I came into the recovery room screaming in pain. I found out the operation was 3 hours but he used a pain killer that lasted 45 minutes. A nurse told me this.. This was outpatient surgery and I was sent home with acetaminophen and ibuprofen - after having my breasts chopped up. Long story short, I was in significant pain for weeks. In my follow up appointment with my cancer surgeon, she asked how I was doing. I explained the situation and she immediately gave me a prescription for a real pain killer. She said what I had is a very painful surgery. She is senior to Dr. Fosnot and called him about this. On my next visit with him, he was very apologetic and offered to give me a pain killer. (At this point, I didn't need it ). It shouldn't take a dressing down by a senior doc for him to treat his patients humanely and with compassion!

I am soooooo happy with my results!!!! Dr.Fosnot is an extremely talented surgeon with a keen eye and meticulous skill. After having a double mastectomy with a diep flap, my previous surgeon left Penn with my surgical reconstruction journey incomplete. I was recommended by another Penn Medicine doctor to see Dr. Fosnot. From the start, Dr. Fosnot made me feel super comfortable. He explained what he thought I needed and why. Dr. Fosnot is knowledgeable and thorough, and gave me all the time I needed to ask my questions. He is honest with a wonderful bedside manner. Dr. Fosnot made me feel very confident the day of surgery and was so caring after the procedure. And did I happen to mention… I LOVE my results!!!!!!!!! I am so lucky my path led me to Dr. Fosnot!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Dr. Fosnot to anyone looking for a top notch plastic surgeon!!!! He is absolutely the BEST!!!!!
