    My appointment with Dr. Forgette was one of the best physician experiences I've ever had.

    Dr. F's thoroughness and contextualization of both possible things wrong and processes for treating impressed me.

    Dr. Forgette had reviewed pertinent documents related to a major health issue spanning many years. I was not only impressed, but also so grateful that both of us had a foundation to aid our first in person appointment. It also meant we could move to the possible treatment possibilities more effectively. Again, I felt well taken care of.

    Dr. Forgette is probably the most thorough, detail oriented doctor I have ever worked with, and I had seen her a few years ago. She was able to remind me of why I saw her and what was said at that time. One thing I really appreciate about her is that she listens carefully to her patients. That doesn't happen sometimes with other doctors. She takes copious notes and reviews them carefully to cover what was discussed in the appointment. I will be starting with physical therapy, and she mentioned other options if that didn't work. I prefer the least invasive, and appreciate knowing that there are other avenues to pursue.

    I especially like having test results issued to patients immediately.

    Either she actually reviews my chart right before or she has a great memory because It never seems like she never needs to stop in a visit to review what happened last time. And she remembers a lot of little details which is impressive and appreciated

    Solution to my pain during adductor exercises was to send me to PT for some of the same exercise. Keep trying things that don't work. Refused to order MRI to diagonse me accurately even though I offered to pay out of pocket.

    Dr Forgette was AMAZING. She listened, she had all my records with her to review, she was EXTREMELY helpful showing where my pain radiated from, why it was doing so, etc etc. She did not miss a single beat. I have already told a handful of people about my experience with her. I felt heard, I felt compassion and I left with a crystal clear path forward. She is a doctor you are very lucky to have in your group.
