A terrific doc with a terrific personality - another doctor in this group made many mistakes and made me feel as though I was taking up his time. He didn't listen to me whereas Dr. Fortier does listen. Yaaay!

Dr. Fortier is a good listener,explains things well, provides treatment options,& is proactive about a man's health. He actually called me to follow up about how I was doing regarding a potentially serious condition. He is a true "find" in a sea of medical mediocrity in West Palm Beach. Shhh,don't tell anyone or it will be harder to get my next appointment.His staff is also very accommodating & professional!

Dr. Fortier and his staff are the best! Courteous, helpful, well-informed. I like that Dr. Fortier tries to find alternatives for treatment rather than just writing a prescription.

Dr. Fortier is a realist. In his calm soft spoken way he delivers straight forward advise & treatment options from the patient's perspective. He actually took the time to personally call me about a recent health care situation I was going through...a rare event with most doctors these days. He's the real deal.

Dr. Daniel Fortier is the type of physician that treats you with his time, knowledge and respect. His office staff and the nurses at the facility are friendly and professional. The facility where he works takes blood, provides x-rays, etc. You can pretty much stay in house for medical services. This makes it convenient as well as a pleasant place to receive medical services.
