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.

Dr Foreman is a great doctor. It was my first encounter with him. He is kind, attentive and explains medical issues in words that can be understood by a common no medical person.

Do not use for pannicukectomy and abdominoplasty!!
Dr white retired so I got stuck with him. Because he was aware I was moving away soon after surgery, everything was rushed. He forgot to tie off a vein and I bled out internally the night of surgery. Had a blood transfusion, my wound opened up, 3.different ers wouldn't help and just kept sending me back to him. All he would do is add stitches. No wound vac, that's it. I ended up with a grapefruit sized hole in my abdomen and my insides Intestines, bladder, were exposed. So I was hospitalized again, had emergency surgery, plus 3 follow up surgeries and a wound vac thank God, plus another blood transfusion. If I hadn't moved from toledo to Columbus and gone to a hospital here (Grant). I wouldn't have made it. Highly recommend you seek out someone else. His bedside manner sucks and he obviously cares more about the money than his patients.

My surgery was denied by my medical insurance. After this I was treated very badly by the staff who would not return my calls, would not explain to me what I needed to do in order to get approved, and did this for 5 months. The person handling insurance for Dr. Fourman was nasty to me on the phone, and lied to me on 3 separate occasions about making contact attempts to my insurance company . They also refused to refund the $350 that I had to pay above and beyond what my insurance covered.

Dr Fourman is an incredible surgeon. I had gastric bypass with him and had a wonderful experience. At my follow up appointments he has been more than helpful even with unrelated concerns that my awful primary care would brush off. He has excellent bedside manner and I would trust the lives of any of my loved ones in his hands. He is very easy to talk to and he takes the time to listen. You don’t find many providers that truly care, but he really does. Incredible surgeon and person.

Dr. Fourman handles situations well when the outcome is favorable, but if there is something wrong, the office will quickly label you as a problem patient and completely abandon you. I would definitely choose another weight loss program for surgery. They do not do a good job of preparing you for all aspects of the surgery and the nutrition counseling is poor at best.
