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.

Skin challenges? Dr, For Shay is the one you need
I have seen Dr. Forsha for many years for a variety of challenges including eczema, skin cancer, allergic reactions, damage from the sun and other minor concerns. He comes up with the most innovative solutions, and offers the developments, available to solve skin problems without leaving huge scars. What I really like about him is he thinks of affordable ways and effective solutions. he has so much compassion for each patient, Dr. Forsha has so much experience and thinks outside the box of what is best for you and offers so many different solutions.I highly recommend Jordan Valley dermatology, there is no other place trust.

smart dr that listens!
2012 Dr removed Liver Spots from my face with freeze spray successfully. 2013 Diagnosed seborrheic dermatitis. I tried getting healthier on my own and didn't need further treatment for many years. 2022 Helped me k!ll skin fungi, when other doctors refused to see me. Was able to help me get in to other specialists for further treatment, where my Nurse Practitioner PCP was sending incorrect information and failing to send any referrals correctly. Dr was able to get my bad insurance to cover my medication.

I Highly Recommend Jordan Valley Dermatology
My appointment with Dr. Forsha went very well. Very friendly and professional staff. Dr. Forsha was great to listen and answered all my questions. He is such a nice doctor! He has done a great job in helping to resolve the problems I was having with my skin. As I left the office, I couldn’t help but think that this is how all medical offices should be run.

So kind and really took the time to get to the bottom of my skin condition. Dr. Forsha and the entire staff was so friendly and really made me feel comfortable. The office is gorgeous!!! So bright and welcoming. I would highly recommend him and his other professionals to anyone! So nice to have a doctor that actually took the time. Don't see that much these days but Dr. Forsha did. Very much appreciated and felt well taken care of.

Love Dr. Forsha and the staff at SkinGym Dermatology & Medspa. He is friendly, didn't take long to get in and I was able to be seen on a weekend. Yes that is correct. I was seen on a weekend. The doctor treated me for an allergic reaction to the sun which two other local derms in Des Moines misdiagnosed me for. Dr. Forsha took the time to talk to me about my itchy skin and then properly diagnosed me. I was recommended an Rx that cleared it up in just a few days ! Love him.
