Patient Reviews
Nov 12, 2022
Dr. Foret is our family physician. He listens to his patients, responds to their problems and concerns laying out a treatment program that is designed to treat all their health issues. He goes beyond just the office visit, making sure that extended care with specialists, home nursing, wound treatment is properly tended to. I have recommended him to others for his caring care!
