Crestwood Medical Center Hospital












He seemed very nice and really concerned.
My impression of him didn't change.
His staff was professional but some didn't act like they cared much.
There wasn't anything I didn't like about him.
The hospital was late getting me ready for my surgery and he made sure to tell them I was supposed to be ready by that time. He's very kind and doesn't seem like he's there to make money.
He stresses aftercare. I wasn't allowed to leave the hospital until I signed many forms stating that we had gone over many points, many times.
He has a whole booklet about aftercare, the diet, exercise, vitamins, everything. He gave me numbers of people I could call if I had a question.
Everytime I saw him pre-op, he stressed the risks of the surgery.
I would rate him as close to the top of the scale as I could.
Both were great with him.

I had to return on July 31,2004 because of blood clots or PE. During this scary time I had a problem with to nurses that made me feel abused and neglected. Which really colors my view or the whole situation. The other nurses and staff were great. I did complain to my doctor and to the hospital after I got home.

Dr. Foreman seemed very knowledgable and confident. My impression of him has not changed from the first meeting. Dr. Foreman answered all my questions with straight forward answers.
The staff is very courteous. Dr. Foreman likes for his patients to be well informed before visiting his office. He covered the aftercare procedures and stressed follow up with the dietician and support meetings.
The risks and complications of surgery were explained very well. I would rate his confidence in his surgical competence a 10. Bedside manner TBD later. I believe surgical competence is better than bedside manner although it wouldn't hurt to lighten up a little and by more personable. The staff was quick to schedule tests needed and return phone calls in a timely manner.
The remarks made in this questionaire are merely based on my personal opinions of my dealings with Dr. Foremans office at the time of my first and second visit. Individuals are responsible for forming their own opinions after their consultation.
Overall, my experience was pleasant and informative.

Dr. Foreman is extremely professional. His candor helped me make an informed decision. I appreciate his willingness to answer any and all questions, no matter how long it took. His emphasis is on the after care and making sure you are ready for the committment necessary for success. His bedside manner and surgical competence are both super.
