What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
Wellness visit should be included on one of the every six month visits. Requiring a separate wellness visit is redundant and an unesssary burden for me. Also would like to resume telephone visits for minor issues. Video are not an option for me. Thank you

Excellent Dr he has kept my husband and me alive. He found my Colon Cancer when a Dr at [HOSPITAL] ER told me I had the flu. They said had it not been found in 3 months I would have died. He also saved my husband when he had blood clots and a infection in both lungs. My husband has had Lupus for 40 + yrs.

What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
I would say that Dr Forsythe is the best Dr. I've had for a number of years but would warn them that the my Michigan managers are not elderly friendly as they are not taking certain insurances and threatening what they consider out of market insured with facility charges that I never heard of before which I'm sure is to cover the Medicare payment gap.
