Been with Dr. Fortune since his first year as a doctor. He is the only family doctor my kids have ever known (ages 30 & 34). Delivered my daughter and cares for her son - three generations. He spends all the time needed to evaluate, treat and advise. Dr. Fortune genuinely cares about his patients. Happy retirement!

Aside from the office staff who are quite rude, Dr. Fortune himself is somewhat personable. Does he take the time to know you and your needs? No. He's a numbers guy and wants to see the lab work. He won't even refill a prescription without it actually, even if you run out. For that, sorry - I'm seeing someone else.

Dr. Fortune has been my physician for a few years now and I would not go anywhere else. He is very respectful, considerate, and gives great medical advice. He makes it easy to have a conversation about my health and asks if he has answered all of my questions. He definitely explains things well and takes the time to listen to whatever concerns I may have. Would recommend him over and over

Dr. Fortune has been my and my family's doctor for almost 30 years. I've followed him from Troy to Eastpointe to Grosse Point to St. Clair Shores. His care and understanding for me and my family has been outstanding and beyond the call of duty.
