Sentara Norfolk General Hospital

"The nurses and doctors were all excellent in their professonialism and the care I received was outstanding! I felt like I was at a spa and I was getting some much deserved rest. The nurses that took care of me were angels. Top of the line caretakers all the way!"

Mark Fontana

"I met Dr. Fontana at his seminar on Jan. 24th.rnMy first office visit was with him today, February 9th, 2007. He was very thorough in his explanations of the procedure and what to expect. I felt very comfortable with him and his staff. Lola was really nice and so was the young lady that set up my prodedures at Leigh.rnThey were very responsive to my questions and made me feel very relaxed. rnrnDr. Fontana did my endoscopy procedure and I was even more impressed with him. He had a diet coke in his hand and I didn't even see it until he tried to hide it. lol rnThe only thing that i was concerned about was not having enough sedation cuz i heaved uncontrollably when he passed the tubing. Dr. Hornbuckle told me not to worry he would make sure I was good and sedated at the ultrasound.rnrnDr. Fontana performed my lapband procedure. He was very reassuring and caring to me. He wants his patients to succeed and he encourages us to follow the rules. It's not hard. Use the tool."
