Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Confident in his care
I always find Dr. Forney to be thorough, always following up on questions and issues from previous visits. He also takes the time to explain things that I ask about, whether directly related to my care or not.

I have been seeing Dr.Forney for over four years now. He treats my fibromyalgia and sees me every three months for Blood work and check ups just to make sure i continue to be okay. He's a wonderful Dr and i highly recommend him.

Great doctor – Dec 12, 2020

He's always at least an hour late and doesn't listen to a word you are saying. Has messed up medications and as soon as you leave his office, he doesn't follow through on anything he says.

I have had multiple experiences, and all of them has been awful. Out of three visits, he was at least and hour late for all of them our appointment and didn't even apologize. He is also not very personable.
