Kind, compassionate, and easily one of the most intelligent people I've ever met.
Dr Fogle was very gentle and kind, explaining everything so I could understand ! Every one was very nice
Every thing went as expected.
I used to see Dr. Lerner and when he was retiring I ventured out to a new office. Although the doctor I was seeing was great, I found the office to be unorganized and not easy to deal with. I came back to APDS and I’ve been seeing Dr. Fogel. He’s absolutely amazing! I’m so happy with my experience returning to this office and with Dr. Fogel. He has helped me get my confidence back by prescribing me just what I need to clear my skin! Aside from Dr. Fogel, everyone in this office is great. I wouldn’t recommend another practice. :)
First time meeting Dr Fogel yesterday. I was very impressed with him, both his knowledge and his very cheerful attitude. Couldn't help but smile on my way out. His assistants all equally polite.
Great experience! Dr. Fogel is very kind and gentle all while being informative. The office staff is also fantastic!
Excellent
First time bringing my son here. Dr. Fogel and his team were so understanding and accommodating to my son’s issue. Definitely will be bringing my family here if/when necessary.
It was great
Got me in with an emergency issue. Dr. Fogel was very welcoming and thoughtful about his examination and diagnosis. He took all the appropriate actions to identify the problem including swabbing, ordering important meds and making a follow up appointment in 2 weeks with a definite plan to do a biopsy of all the efforts did not clear the problem. I liked him very much and would definitely recommend him.
I met Doctor Fogel today and liked him very much. There was a 30 minute wait so you lost a star.
Dr. Fogel listens and takes the time to address all the issues. Did not feel rushed and was satisfied with my visit.
Very pleasant staff. The doctor was knowledgeable and offered advice on how to take better care of my skin.
Dr Fogel is probably the best Dr I’ve encountered He is personable and efficient asking of all your concerns
Excellent. I was concerned seeing a new doctor but he made me feel very comfortable and addressed my concerns.
Doctor Fogel was extremely friendly and truly wanted to find the right remedy to fix my reason for the visit. He was precise and made sure everything was in line.
Dr. Fogel was excellent. Took his time explaining care opportunities. Highly recommend.
Dr. Fogel was professional, knowledgeable, and competent. Most importantly, he put me at ease from start to finish and was very kind and courteous. His assistant, Dana, was also a pleasure to have with me before, during, and after my procedure.
Knowledgeable, thorough, patient, caring
He was very friendly, calm and caring - just what I needed
Friendly and courteous but professional. Took me seriously and sent me to the ED for possible IV treatment. I would let you know if I needed them But 3 hours in the ED and haven’t been seen yet. Tip. Don’t go to the ED on a Monday
Dr. Fogel is a wonderful Dr. Professional, thorough and personable. Highly recommend. Went for a body check and got Botox too.
Easy, not nerve wracking. Great care.
I felt like he had time for me
This was my fist visit with Dr Fogle and his assistant. Both were very pleasant. Dr Vogle explained everything to me. It is hard to find good Doctors these days but he is a good one. Definitely will recommend him
