Dr. Foss is a blessing! I can't think of how he could have been better. He was clear, reassuring, and warm. He had nothing with him like a laptop or computer or paper, yet knew all the specifics of my history. He was very present and intentional with me.
August 30, 2024
Dr. Foss spent a lot of time with me and answered the questions I had. I've seen Dr. Foss a few times in the past when my current oncologist was on vacation. I'm happy that Dr. Foss will be my new oncologist going forward. He was very kind and helpful.

August 21, 2024
I loved Dr. Foss . He took his time & explained everything
August 02, 2024
Dr. Foss is a good doctor just one thing is that he bring up often more than one visit up that he didn't want patient to be stuck with a bill if the insurance did not cover the test. If he thinks it is medically necessary he just needs to put in referral for authorization. I have a HMO. Let them decide and then patient can appeal decision. I think he should concentrate on treating the patient and not to be concerned about if the insurance is going to cover it.
July 31, 2024
Dr. Fossi s one of the best doctors I have ever had. He explains everything, he is considerate, and he really knows what he's doing. Thank you for letting him be my doctor.

Dr. Foss has a friendly non-intimidating way about him. He makes one feel at ease in discussing what is going on and consequently builds trust.
July 24, 2024
I am beyond grateful for a doctor like Dr. Foss, I was seen right away, and he thoroughly explained my stroke and anemia issues. He listened to me and i felt heard. I could bring up any issue and if he felt another doctor could address that question better, he pointed me in the right direction. Dr. Foss was very clear with me, with what are the next steps. I felt at ease leaving the office knowing that he will get to the bottom of my issues.

I had an excellent first time visit with Dr. Foss. He listened to what I had to say. He was very interested and courteous. He explained that I would be having various tests to figure out my anemia problem. He ordered bloodwork for me. I will return in 3 weeks with the results and continue with the next step. He was very thorough and also reassuring. I am confident that he will find my problem. I was very impressed and felt reassured that I will be taken care of with whatever I need. I am very happy with Dr. Foss.

Dr. Foss saw us earlier than our scheduled appt. We were not sure why we were there to see him, but he quickly explained that the "system" was keeping an eye on my wife's health especially since her cancer diagnosis. This made sense to me and enabled us to talk with Dr. Foss about our related concerns. I and my wife were very pleased.
