My nurse was amazing. She listened. She was kind. I even complimented her and let her know that she has excellent bedside manners. My doctor was great. He listened. He gave me a lot, a lot, a lot of information, and even pulled up my scans, things that other doctors just wouldn't even do. And then the front staff, they were cool, no complaints to me. Overall, I would definitely be back.

Dr. Recommended procedure at facility not covered by my insurance. I will have to see another doctor to receive a procedure at a facility covered by insurance. I thought he wanted it done quickly. He couldn't do it at Kennestone until Jan. And I may not have same insurance. Now I will have to go to Woodstock, have another appointment and then procedure at location in my insurance network. East Cobb health park is not covered by Ambetter.

From the smile of the welcoming Cynthia until we left we were treated as individuals who were seen and heard. Dr. Foromera had read about my recent health problems and was ready to listen to me about it. He is empathetic and not in a hurry. He explained everything to us so we fully understood. We were very encouraged and comforted by what to expect and he emphasized when I should not hesitate to call for help. He is the kind of Dr. you hope you will find. We are so thankful to have found him! Don't hesitate to call if you need a really fine Gastroenter-ologist.

The doctor did not listen to my problem. He was rude and refused to give me any solutions other than the emergency room - for a problem that is not emergent. He refused to explore other treatment options. Initially I began vomiting during the appointment before we had discussed treatment or plans going forward - nausea was the main concern for the appointment. He offered to get me an Emesis bag and left the room. Then a nurse brought me discharge papers without me finishing speaking with the dr. I insisted on seeing him to finish the conversation and have a plan going forward. He continued to insist there was nothing he could do - that he wouldn't order the test he agreed that I needed because of the nausea. He didn't provide options for treating the nausea and continued insisting the ER was the only choice. He insited I needed a test that was already done and normal, and when I refused an unnecessary CT scan he said "there's nothing I can do so go to the ER" When I called my mother - my health care agent - for help in explaining the issue he told her that "even if you're her mom or health care agent, I don't have to talk to you. She is an adult so I don't won't talk to you. She asked if she could ask a question and he said "you can ask one but then I have other patients and don't have time to talk with you or her anymore." She asked what to do because the ER wasn't going to have an effective long term fix for the issue and they couldn't provide ongoing care. And he said "I don't know what else you want me to do. I don't know what's causing the problem and can't figure that out in the clinic so go to the ER or see another doctor in a few weeks." I have never been treated with such disrespect and incompetence. My mother and I are considering filing formal reports against him for the treatment.

Dr. Foromera has wonderful, wonderful patient relationship, doctor-patient relationship. Very kind, very gentle, which is exactly what you need when you don't feel well. His staff is equally as impressive, very, very kind, very respectful. take their time with you. It was just overall a really positive experience.

The doctor did not listen to my problem. He was rude and refused to give me any solutions other than the emergency room - for a problem that is not emergent. He refused to explore other treatment options. Initially I began vomiting during the appointment before we had discussed treatment or plans going forward - nausea was the main concern for the appointment. He offered to get me an Emesis bag and left the room. Then a nurse brought me discharge papers without me finishing speaking with the dr. I insisted on seeing him to finish the conversation and have a plan going forward. He continued to insist there was nothing he could do - that he wouldn't order the test he agreed that I needed because of the nausea. He didn't provide options for treating the nausea and continued insisting the ER was the only choice. He insited I needed a test that was already done and normal, and when I refused an unnecessary CT scan he said "there's nothing I can do so go to the ER" When I called my mother - my health care agent - for help in explaining the issue he told her that "even if you're her mom or health care agent, I don't have to talk to you. She is an adult so I don't won't talk to you. She asked if she could ask a question and he said "you can ask one but then I have other patients and don't have time to talk with you or her anymore." She asked what to do because the ER wasn't going to have an effective long term fix for the issue and they couldn't provide ongoing care. And he said "I don't know what else you want me to do. I don't know what's causing the problem and can't figure that out in the clinic so go to the ER or see another doctor in a few weeks." I have never been treated with such disrespect and incompetence. My mother and I are considering filing formal reports against him for the treatment.

He is an amazing doctor and it was a delight to walk into a doctor's office, into the exam room and have such a polite doctor to listen to what you had to say and listen to you and have a conversation with a doctor and not be interrupted.

Dr. Foromera is amazing. The clinic staff is amazing. I would recommend him to anyone. He took care of all of my needs. He made sure I was good, followed all protocols, did a thorough exam of me, got down to the root of my problem. Dr. Ferreiro is amazing. He has the best energy ever. I recommend anyone to go there. He's a 12 out of 12. He's beyond a 10 out of 10. Thank you.

From the smile of the welcoming Cynthia until we left we were treated as individuals who were seen and heard. Dr. Foromera had read about my recent health problems and was ready to listen to me about it. He is empathetic and not in a hurry. He explained everything to us so we fully understood. We were very encouraged and comforted by what to expect and he emphasized when I should not hesitate to call for help. He is the kind of Dr. you hope you will find. We are so thankful to have found him! Don't hesitate to call if you need a really fine Gastroenter-ologist.

Dr. Recommended procedure at facility not covered by my insurance. I will have to see another doctor to receive a procedure at a facility covered by insurance. I thought he wanted it done quickly. He couldn't do it at Kennestone until Jan. And I may not have same insurance. Now I will have to go to Woodstock, have another appointment and then procedure at location in my insurance network. East Cobb health park is not covered by Ambetter.

My nurse was amazing. She listened. She was kind. I even complimented her and let her know that she has excellent bedside manners. My doctor was great. He listened. He gave me a lot, a lot, a lot of information, and even pulled up my scans, things that other doctors just wouldn't even do. And then the front staff, they were cool, no complaints to me. Overall, I would definitely be back.
