Patient Reviews
Sep 20, 2017
Dr Forstein saved my daughter's life 28 years ago. She is alive today because of his willingness to accept my concerns over his colleagues assessment and order the appropriate tests and surgery to save her life. Today she is in 3rd year residency in internal medicine at Maine Medical Center in Portland Maine and still tells me that his dedication to his patients has had a lasting effect on her that she will carry with her throughout her career.

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams.
