Poor communitcation skills. Over books patients for the same time and has long line waiting until he has time to see us. The way this office is run is basically to get as much insurance money for as little work as possible.

He operated on my foot 3 years ago. It's still numb. He put a pin in my foot because of a bunion. The pin cane out! I have to have surgery to have it removed and my new doctor said people my age are never given pins the way Fanous does. It's been nothing but pain since he operated on my foot. He didn't think I needed a walker post surgery but I did. Hubby ended buying one at a thrift store. He didn't want to give me much in the way of pain meds. My regular doctor had to give me an rx for meds. Fanous is egotistical and narcisstic. I hate him!

Worst experience I have ever had. Came in because of the ads I hear. Paid 350 for 5 minutes of his time. Told me my deductible is due up front because he is not in nertwork with ANY insurance. I called the day before my appointment and was told there were no issues and no co pays due. Staff is not knowledgeable, there are better foot doctors to see........ please look elsewhere. He's also known as chainsaw? Wow! Very disappointing. Maybe spend more time with your patients than advertising.

I wouldn't let this guy operate on my dog. There's a reason his nickname is chainsaw.

Never heard of this site, but after sitting in the lobby for almost two hours, listening to the girl at the front talk about her weekend, and then HEARING THE DR TELL patients to go on this site and give him 5 stars. If you have to ask your patients to rate you, somthing isnt right

Wait is sometimes lengthy at his office, but it's worth it as Dr Fanous is the best foot and ankle surgeon in the high desert!
