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.

Took care of my dad
My dad had severe aortic stenosis and Dr. Foerst operated fixed the valve. Would highly recommend this dr as he is an exceptional cardiac surgeon, and he is very personable. Great dr.

An excellent doctor
Dr. Foerst performed a PFO Closure on me. From the very first visit to the day after my surgery, everything went smoothly. He explained my condition, how the PFO Closure would benefit me and details of the procedure. I had complete confidence in him. My rate of pain during and after the surgery never went above 1. Recovery was a breeze. I got excellent care and would go to him again in a heartbeat.

Dr. Foerst and the medical professionals with the TAVR team were responsive to my needs and concerns as a patient with severe aortic stenosis. The procedure went perfectly and the aftercare with a nurse on call 24/7 was an unanticipated comfort. I can now look forward to many more years of hiking, biking and canoeing!

Dr Forest is wonderful. My experience was more than exceptional! The wait for the procedure was two weeks and the procedure took 29 minutes, one overnight Hospital stay and on a scale of 0 to 5 for pain my pain level isn't even one. I feel like I have a new lease on life! Their office personnel are highly professional, they handle everything in a timely manner and really care about their patients. They work their schedule around yours and put their patients first at all times. The best!
