Review for Dr. Cotant
I was diagnosed with pyelonephritis which I’ve had for over 20 years on and off. I told him the pain I was in and he brushed me off. And didn’t want to help me at all. Never go see him. Worse doctor I’ve ever seen. Shouldn’t even be in business if he doesn’t want to help people. Shame on him

Review for Dr. Janjua
Dr Forness rebuilt our daughters hip when everyone told him to fuse it. She was 12 then. Now she is 39 had 4 babies naturally with this hip with no problems. It lasted 27 years and is just now getting an artificial hip. We would recommend him in a heart beat.
