          Registration Statement on Form S-3

Gentlemen:

     I  have  represented  Fonar  Corporation,   a  Delaware   corporation  (the
"Company"),  in connection  with the preparation of the  registration  statement
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form S-3 (the "Registration
Statement")  relating to the proposed  issuance of up to  3,500,000  shares (the
"Shares") of the Company's common stock, par value $.0001 per share (the "Common
Stock").  In this  connection,  I have  examined  originals  or  copies  of such
documents,  corporate  records,  certificates  of  public  officials  and  other
documents as I deemed necessary to examine for purposes of this opinion.

     I am of the  opinion  that when the shares of Common  Stock  covered by the
Registration  Statement  have been  issued in  accordance  with the terms of any
prospectus or prospectus supplement thereunder, such shares of Common Stock will
be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

     I hereby  consent  to the  filing  of this  Opinion  as an  Exhibit  to the
Registration Statement.

                                                            Very truly yours,

                                                            /s/  Henry T. Meyer
                                                            Henry T. Meyer, Esq.
