How likely are you to recommend Dr. Forman?
Open heart surgery was never on my agenda. I couldn't take enough calming agents to settle my nerves over hearing that news. Met Dr Foreman for the first time and he seemed so calm and serene that I thought it might not be that bad. I went thru the surgery with no problem and never took a pain pill at all. What a 'wonder'. He simply has real god given talents and I am so grateful that I was in his hands. Also his staff has to be exceptional and just as talented. Thank you all!
