After reading the positive reviews in Dr Forgay,, I believe he must suffer from Bipolar or some other disorder!
My experience with him was absolutely negative. I brought my MRI info with me and explained to him where my debilitating pain was located. He looks at the MRI and tells me that , yes , I have a disk herniation at L5 S1 but not enough of one to cause me any problem. I was dismissed without any other option for treatment. I was afterwards forced to close down my business and sell my house due to my disability! Now, after trying to get to the bottom of my problem for several months, an orthopedic surgeon in another city asked me to see the MRI. He was shocked to see that it in fact shows a severe disk herniation at L5 S1! I am now scheduled to see a spine surgeon unless I can deal with this through Chiropactic.
I agee completely with another review that this doctor cannot correctly read an MRI. He has now caused me a massive amount of pain an anxiety due to his misdiagnosis! Arrogant, rude, condescending as well. Patient BEWARE! Get a second opinion and do it right away. Don’t let this happen to you. Tell your GP that you want to be referred elseware to begin with. I wish I would have known because I have endured untold financial and emotional misery due to this guy!

He suffers from severe cranial paralysis. No need to fill out your medical history. He will pay it no mind.

Dr. Forgay did a very thorough examination of my back, much more than the doctor who performed surgery on my back had done. When I went to see Dr. Forgay I was very concerned about the fact that I had born on very strong narcotic pain medicine for eight months. Within a few short weeks of my initial visit, I only took Tylenol for my back. Most days I did not need anything.. I found Dr. Foray to be very thorough, knowledgeable, and concerned. He listened to my concerns and consulted with me about what I hoped to accomplish with his treatment. I highly recommend this wonderful doctor.

I WAS RAN OVER IN 2008 BY A **** DRIVER I HAVE BEEN ON A PAIN MANAGENENT PROGRAM SINCE (L1/L4 FAILED SURGERY). MY IMPREISSON OF DR. FORGAY IS THAT HE HAS ABSOLUTELY NO KKNOWLEDGE OF CHRONIC PAIN WE RECENTLY MOVED HERE AND MY ONLY INTEREST WAS TO CONTINUE MY PROGRAM HE DID NOT LISTEN TO ANYTHING I HAD TO SAY. I ALSO FOUND HIM RUDE AND UNCAREING THAT I HAVE EXPERIENCED EXTREM PAIN SINCE WE ARRIVED HERE IF HE WOULD LEARN TO LISTEN HE WOULD LEARN FROM LISTENING. HE IS ONE OF THOSE GUYS WHO KNOWS EVERYTHING AND NOTHING.

I am honestly baffled by the negative reviews towards Dr. Forgay. I had to double check that I was looking at the correct doctor, because some of the things that have been said I find somewhat untrue. IMO Dr. Forgay is truly an amazing Doctor, and he sincerely cares! I suffer from a VERY painful hip condition. Sometimes the pain I experience is so severe I literally get sick to my stomach. Fortunately, I have been treated with genuine compassion.. Every visit! I trust Dr. Forgay's judgement and the treatment plan he has tailored for my condition. I will end my review by stating that I know for a fact Dr. Forgay is not one who hands out Rx's left and right. Call it what you want, but a doctor that is "cautious" does not necessarily mean they are callous and lack empathy towards their patients. Some doctors simply take their professions very seriously, and are only interested in treating patients who truly need to be in pain management. Nothing wrong with that.

Do youself a favor and do not see Dr. Forgay he is a waste of time. He was rude and stated he could do nothing for me and said I did not have enough pain to see him even with past medical records indicating a problem. I will never go back and would like to warn others as well.

he was very rude. when I discussed my concerns regarding pain medicine he perscribed (im 85 yrs old and have been having problems with different medicine & combinations) he acted offended and became rude and told me not to come back if i dont take the medicine that he perscribed. For the "unknowledgeble rating" this is because even though he sent me to a particular PT he had no idea where I was going for PT. As far as my personal information, he acts as if I am a new patient at every visit. I wonder if he is testing my mental capabilities by retesting me at every visit! I am not going back and warn others.

Very friendly and kind. I was suffering every day and he made the pain more bearable. We had a problem with the insurance and I stopped coming to him. He and his staff told me to come anyway. They seemed to be more concerned about relieving my pain than getting paid.
