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.

Doesn't Communicate in a timely manner.
Doesn't Communicate with patients in a timely manner. I'm not sure if he is being over worked or just can't keep up with all of his patients. I wouldn't say that he doesn't care about his patients but he definitely doesn't communicate with his patients in a timely manner. I put in for a refill request on August 5th and it's August 13th now. I'm out of medication now. I've sent a couple emails and called and left voicemails. I haven't got a any reply back an don't understand what's going on. My next office visit isn't till next month. From other reviews I found online it looks like he does this to other patients. I've never had a dr in my life that I couldn't Communicate with in a day or 2. MY REVIEW IS AS FOLLOWED IF YOUR SEEKING A NEW DR IN HIS FIELD I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND HIM AT THIS TIME IN. Once he gets the Communication part fixed then I would recommend him.

Absolutely no communication. Never returns calls....and I mean NEVER. Doctor really does not listen to patient. Just wants to throw prescriptions at you.

Dr. Fornaish has been working with my family and I for over 10 years, I do admit it can be difficult at times to get a last minute appointment but it is because he is a great Dr. that actually listens and cares. Sometimes that caring nature makes him run behind on appointments, but he has gotten better over the years about not booking so many appointments back to back

Good Dr but still much to be desired. Trying to get appointments is terrible. Never has availability, and despite several messages left on vm to his assistant (which is the only way to contact outside of an appointment), it takes 2-3 weeks for a return call.
