My back/spine doctor warned me about Doctor Fagundus before my appointment and I wish I listened and didn’t have to pay him for wasting my time. I saw Doctor Fagundus for all over joint pain and swelling that’s been bothering me for about 8 years now and just continues to get worse.I honestly would like to give less than one star. The only good thing I’d say was that I didn’t have to wait forever. That’s all.You have to fill out a packet before your appointment and I went into extensive detail hoping to finally get a diagnosis and hopefully start feeling better. He clearly didn’t even glance at my packet. Didn’t know any of my history or symptoms. He seemed surprised when I said my joints swell/get red and just kept telling me to do 30 minutes of exercise a day which I have already been doing for 8 years. He would’ve known that had he looked at my packet. He also only looked at blood work from a few months back and wouldn’t even look at my joints. I mentioned how you can have it and show no markers in your blood, he acknowledge that then dismissed me. Out of all my JOINT pain and JOINT issues he wanted to improve my sleep which I do not complain about. I want to say he spent a total of maybe 20 mins talking to me and would barely listen to my symptoms. Even if it isn’t RA, as a doctor he should want to help me figure out what is causing me pain and didn’t give me any new direction to go in.Basically, he didn’t seem to care at all. Just wanted to get done for the day. I hate doctors like Dr. Fagundus and hate that other people are wasting their time and money thinking they are going to get real help.I hope he sees this and starts at care about his profession more. Doctors like him are the reason why people don’t like doctors.

I went to see this Dr many years ago because of pain in my joints, specifically my hands. He told me that I needed to lose weight. He obviously did not take me seriously. What the hell does pain in my hands have to do with my weight?Because of him not taking me seriously and doing the tests that I needed, I went for another 5 or 6 years before going to a rheumatologist that took me seriously and discovered that I have PSA. One of the fingers on my left hand is permanently fused together because he did not do his job.I do not recommend him.

I have been under Dr. Fagundus care for many years....always very very helpful, courteous, professional and has helped me in so many ways...My husband sees him, also and is very pleased.....Thank you, Dr. Fagundus.
