Dr. Forohar and his team put me at ease during my visit and addressed all my concerns. Everyone is extremely friendly and helpful in this office. I have recommended him to several of my friends and family members and everyone has come back with similar experience. I highly recommend Dr. Forohar.

He is always in a mad dash to leave the room and never gives specific details to his findings. I seriously question his level of expertise.

did nothing for me, waited 2 hours to get in to room, then told me he doesn't have time, so I have to come back after about 2 minutes of speaking, I was in horrible pain, didn't care, no compassion, never ever again, this is a perfect example of what gives dr's a bad name. treated like a number, certainly not like a patient.

After waiting to see this doctor for hours, he finally saw me at the hospital he was working at. As he began talking to me he took a personal cell call and just walked away. Since he walked away from me in such a manner, I began to look through my medical records. This "doctor" came back and said, "did you find anything interesting". I did so I told him and asked questions about it...the doctor became extremely angry and then walked away from me not giving me any test results. He is a true embarrassment to the medical profession.
