Very pleased w the Physical Therapy. The therapists are knowledgeable and focused. The therapy is steadily helping me recover from the arthritis in my left knee, as well as my pulled thigh muscle on the right leg, which occurred during at-home exercises related to the arthritus.

Cynthia made me feel welcome and cared for. She is an asset to Wellstar. Dr. F is great! He listens and explains everything in a way that is easy to understand. He explains the plan of care that he is wanting to pursue. He sat directly with me and made eye contact throughout the visit. As a Wellstar employee, I was very impressed with this team.

I do not think the Dr really listened to what I said. He thought I had one type of liver disease ,but I strongly believe it is really another. If he asked me the right questions and he really listened to me he would probably have known. He seemed very young and not very experienced and was very difficult to understand. However he was nice and respectful and probably will be very good when he matures.

Wow! What a great staff. 1st and foremost was their attention to my medical needs, but their demeaner was so perfect. They care about their patients and their jobs. I walked in behind another lady and in front of another man. Kristen at the front desk (and another lady) both communicated to me when I walked in to let me know they saw me and would take care of me. Cynthia, the nurser that took me back was warm and friendly. That means a lot to someone in need of care. Dr. Foromera is everything I had heard. He was recommended to my husband and to me. He went over everything with me and has really put me at ease. I am confident I am in good hands with this team! When I checked out, I sat in an office with the sweetest lady. I asked here her name, but I forgot... she was wonderful, too. Bless this office!

Except for the final checkout process, an appointment to schedule my Colonoscopy, I was wrongly assigned an endoscopy follow-up appointment by the staff. Luckily, I saw the mixup and figured something was amiss. Other than this mixup, my appointment was fine

Hey, this is Dan Marquis. I don't mind if you use my name at all. I had a great experience with Dr. Formera. He was very prepared. He shared treatment options, pros and cons for each of them, and answered a lot of my questions and gave me answers that I didn't have. And I had a great experience with his front office staff. I remember Cynthia in particular being helpful for me on my way out. So, yeah, very good experience. Thanks.
