Always a good experience with Dr. Fruchter.
We love coming to see Dr. Fruchter. He's a wonderful doctor, so caring, and we can always count on him.
Well, Dr. Fruchter always goes above and beyond to explain things and is very caring and considerate of my daughter's condition.
For years now, no matter what time I call to say that my son is sick, I'm always given an appointment within the hour. So I'm always very appreciative of that and would always highly recommend this service because of that. Thank you.
Dr. Joseph Fruchter is a great doctor. He's great with the kids. He listens to you. He helps you out. There's nothing I've ever had. There's nothing that's ever been bad about him. He's a great doctor. He's just really thorough.
