Patient Reviews
Mar 17, 2021
I had a mamo and sonogram and was sent to Dr. Fitterman to discuss findings. I had to have a lumpectomy in two places and two nodules also checked out. All findings came back that my margins were clear and the small cancer cell in the breast was only 3 centimeters and was caught early. This doctor is excellent in his compassion, medical history and so easy to talk to. My two doctors sent me to him and I couldn't be any happier I had him on my side. Would highly recommend him and give him 10 stars if I could. Very thorough in his talking to you and leaves no hidden mystery to your personal diagnosis. Any questions you have he answers so honestly and always has a smile on his face. Thank you Dr. Fitterman

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams.
