Staff was so kind and welcoming- except for the receptionist I saw when I walked in. My first experience was very negative but then she was moved from the phones and the rest of my visit was great. Name is Lee, if you don't want to start off your appointment with being accused of fraud (somehow she brought that into the conversation when I gave her my ID, no need whatsoever), avoid her. Greeting people this way is not good customer service and dampens the mood of patients who have enough on their plate. ForCareMedical, I hope that you take the experience of your patients into consideration. I'm sure there are others who have experienced this as well. read more

Dr Forman saved my Mothet's life! As well as mine!! And Now has Heatjet Skull on Board!!! He is an Amazing Dr!

Always a pleasure to visit Forman Dermatology. I visit for cosmetic purposes and my visits are quick, easy and professional. I see a nurse practitioner. The facility is nice. The waiting room has a coffee maker, TV, magazines and plenty of comfortable seating. The patient rooms are clean and also have TV to watch while waiting. Again, I typically don't wait though. I have not been up-sold services here but do receive a monthly email with specials on services. The specials are very good and I definitely take advantage of them. read more

I had a wonderful dermatology appointment with Dr Forman today. This is an outstanding facility...extremely professional and modern. I fully trust Dr Forman after seeing him for several years. Not only does he know his stuff, he's got a wonderful personality and is friendly and nice. He has helped me with my psoriasis and I've been 100% clear for a couple of years. Thank goodness! I highly recommend him and his practice. read more

ForCare Dermatology - Dermatologists Near Me - Tampa, Florida

I have been taking part in a brief (thank God) clinical research study here and I will not be returning for the following reasons: 1) the most unprofessional staff I have ever seen in my 30 years in the medical profession. The staff appears to much more preoccupied with decorating, eating, discussing their personal lives, and everything other than client care or clinical research. This is most likely why my initial visit which was scheduled to last 2-3 hours lasted a grueling SEVEN hours. 2) An inexperienced nurse stabbed me straight on with a large gauge needle in a ridiculous attempt to draw blood ( I have NEVER seen anything so stupid even in a beginner phlebotomy training!) and when, surprise -blood squirted out, she yelped, again SO UNPROFESSIONAL!! and on top of it all 3) despite the FACT the contract we signed that states funds will be dispursed within 2 business days, they have not. So the center is holding the money hostage and I'm here with a bruised and battered vein from the incompetent staff. NO THANKS !!! Moderna needs to let someone else do their research and I will be calling them to report all of this!!! I will also be reporting the nurse to the Florida Board along with her superiors at ForCare for letting her go unchecked and treating me with such utter disregard. read more

A one stop spa. They are honest, kind and good at their specialties. I have had great experiences with the staff and services.

On a recent Friday evening, I fell asleep in a leather recliner wearing a v-neck (in back) gown and when I awoke around 4a, Saturday morning, it felt like my back was stuck to the chair. When I pulled free, the pain started. By Sunday morning, I had a blotchy red area on my back the size of appetizer plate, an indented area around the bottom of that area that appeared to be from the gown and raised bumps resembling blisters. On Sunday night, I drove to an ER, as the itching and pain were unbearable. Home remedies of Benadryl and Hydrocortisone creams did nothing. My condition wasn't "life-threatening", so the ER dr. gave me pain meds and an anti-inflammatory on site and sent me home with 3 prescriptions. Though he didn't know what it was, after I explained that neither the recliner or gown were new, I hadn't eaten anything unusual or gone into the woods, and we had not changed our laundry detergent. I was fortunate enough to get a Dermatologist appt on Tuesday at Forcare Medical Clinic. Carlos (maybe a nurse) and the Physician's Assistant, Kassandra, conveyed concern about this strange area on my back, but did not have answers. Kassandra consulted with a "doctor" (she only said "the doctor") and I was met with the following, "the doctor said to throw away the gown and don't sit in that chair." What?!!! I was peeling scabs off of my back a week later, as if I had been burned. I am now concerned that these marks are permanent and am still perplexed as that what happened and as importantly if it could happen again. Throw away the gown? Really? I won't go back to Forcare and as there are many dermatologists in Tampa, Fl, maybe you should avoid this business also. Shameful. Clearly someone has forgotten how to care. read more

Dr. Maria Hicks is wonderful! Usually I have a satisfactory experience at this practice. Earlier this week...not so much. The person who checked me into the exam room identified herself by name and explained that she is new and Dr. Hicks' medical assistant. She had her damn mask down beneath her chin the entire time she checked me in and spoke to me in that little room. I felt extremely uncomfortable and unsafe with Omicron now everywhere. I kept my KN 95 on through the entire exchange out of courtesy, respect and hopefully my own protection. This is a medical facility??? Huge red flag. read more

Dr. foreman is a dermatologist who has created a huge practice. He is now building a building on N. Florida Ave. that will also house a rheumatologist and other doctor specialties. I brought my son here today he has acne that needs treatment. We saw Jennifer who is a PA and she was very thorough. They are part of my insurance group so I'm happy to keep Dr. Foreman for the last 10 years. The office is comfortable with plenty of seating and it has an excellent Italian coffee maker. We usually see the PA and when the PA comes in she also brings in some students I don't mind everyone has to learn somewhere always get good service no problem with billing read more

Absolute absolutely the best treatment and care I've found to date! Highly recommended

All the ladies are amazing! They always do an amazing job. I went to them for pellets when other places said I just had to deal with menopause. Apparently, I had a .2 testosterone count and definitely needed to be treated. Thanks ladies! read more

Excellent care and great communication! The staff is wonderful and highly educated. Took time and answered all questions with my personal health in mind. read more

Dr. Forman did more in 3 months to improve my daughter's eczema than any other doctor had been able to do in 4 years. He participates in international research studies and conferences and collaborates with the leading researchers in the world. He knows about all of the current and up and coming medications, and takes the time to provide insights into the pros and cons of each so his patients can make informed decisions. We tried everything to manage the symptoms of my daughter's eczema before we found Dr. Forman. We removed all carpeting from our house, rehomed our pets, got a water softener, did bleach baths, salt water baths, organic clothing, dye free laundry detergent, special soap and shampoo, special moisturizer, steroid creams (which wrecked her skin) got an indoor air quality test, tried an allergy elimination diet, and I'm sure I'm forgetting other things. How many preschoolers know how to read ingredient labels? We often would keep her from playing outside so that she wouldn't get too sweaty, which would irritate her skin. Outdoor sports were out of the question, and we often avoided the zoo. Some doctors even said she shouldn't be taking swim lessons. Check out the before and after pics. Dr. Forman educated us on the latest theories about eczema. He created a treatment plan to get her flare up under control with the minimum amount of medication he felt necessary to manage the eczema until she hopefully grows out of it. The communication from him and his office has been incredible, even as we've had questions between appointments. He called us earlier this week to let us know of a new, non-steroid cream that was just released this week. I've never had a doctor who has been so on top of things and committed to the success of our treatment! Can't say enough about how pleased we are with Dr. Forman! read more

ForCare Dermatology - Eczema treatment with Dr. Forman - Dermatologists Near Me - Tampa, Florida

Why 3 stars? Because this is just another example of our flawed medical industry. --- --- --- I'd like to be clear: Dr. Forman and all of his associates were very pleasant to deal with. My primary gripe has to do with the billing process. Here's what happened: I had a small cyst in my ear lobe. I was hoping it would just go away on its own... but apparently that's not how cysts work. I got tired of it, and decided to visit a dermatologist to have it removed. Dr. Forman quickly confirmed that it was indeed a cyst, and presented me with a couple of options. He said it would only take a few minutes, and he was right. Quick, easy, and painless! Here's where things get annoying. I walk to the counter to pay, and I'm told that the grand total is hundreds of dollars. Insurance will cover some of it, but they don't know how much. She gives me a ballpark range of what it will cost, and tells me I can pay whatever I'd like today, and that the rest will be billed. She suggests $150 today, and I oblige. Fast forward a few weeks and, sure enough, I just received the remainder of my bill - $186.46. This is what drives me crazy... what other industry can you buy something, where you have absolutely no idea how much it will cost? I made the mistake of assuming that, because it was such a quick and easy procedure, that the out-of-pocket cost would be minimal. Had I been told - "this will likely cost you $300-$500," I would never have agreed to doing it. Life lesson: never agree to a medical procedure without being given an estimate first. read more

I had a bad feeling when I noticed When I walked into my  primary are office i noticed the 3 employees they were most of all unprofessional, disrespect  incompetent, and inconsiderate, group of employees I have ever met in my life!!! I wonder how they even got their jobs? Then again I dont!  One of the employees there she set at the front desk to my right side at the window, she didnt bother to put her dayam phone down nor bother to ask me if I needed  help. Long story short,  I arrived by 3 o clock my appointment was set for 3:30 I set in that office over an hour. I left after 4 pm and I was never seen nor given an apology no an explanations as of why it took so long.  The employees weren't even considerate enough to tell me that the doctor was running behind. But, here's the kicker; there were 3 other patients; ALL who came after me ALL were Caucasian, they waited less than 15 min 2 were new patients just like me, all were seen and desmissed before me. I was the last one still waiting to be seen although the office was beginning to close it doors. I had to leave because I couldn't wait any longer being that had to leave pick up my child from daycare. With that being said, my time was wasted, and I was never seen when I really needed to be. Racism is hard to prove in medical facilities. What happens is they completely ignore your presence in hopes that you would get frustrated and leave. And If the doctor is racist he too will most likely ignore your health concerns too. Imagine if You went to the doctor and routinely made to feel unseen, unheard, and misunderstood. This may Sometimes make you fear you will even be misdiagnosed and your concerns will be brushed off. Just like they did me today. Today my presence was completely ignored and your employees completely brushed me off and truly rubbed me the wrong way. There are plenty of qualified people who are looking for jobs and If your current employees can't appreciate the one they have and treat ALL PEOPLE NOT MATTER WHAT COLOR OR CREDE THEY ARE WITH RESPECT AND THE DIGINITY THEY DESERVE THEN maybe you all need to make some adjustments. Sincerely Im Hurt and very pissed off!!! read more

I recently called the office to make a new pt appt, and I was pleasantly surprised by the customer service! Jenny was extremely professional and polite! I had questions about what my insurance would and wouldn't cover and not only was she knowledgeable, she was extremely patient with me as well. It's refreshing to feel like they actually cared. I've been to other offices before and you can tell they are more about the money than patient care! Highly recommend! read more

Hands down the best dermatologist around, Dr Forman cares about his patients 100 percent. I Also see Dr. Bogle for primary care, she is wonderful. Definitely recommend this practice to everyone. read more

I went to see Dr. Priya Ramani at the new location on Florida ave. The girls in the second floor rheumatology office were amazing! They were so friendly and helpful. Kearsten, Jacinth, and Cat at the front desk made my experience very pleasant. Dr. Ramani was very thorough, kind, and understanding. Her MA, Tiffany, was amazing as well. The best part was, there was no waiting!!!! I got back for my appointment right on time and the doctor was in the room to see me no more than five minutes after. I was originally supposed to see a different rheumatologist at a different practice but I came here instead because there there was an earlier appointment available and I am honestly SO HAPPY that it happened that way. read more

New location!!! Sweeeeet! My visit started off a bit rocky (long wait time in exam room, which I've never experienced), but the team at ForCare more than made up for it. Dr. Foreman first apologized for the inconvenience, was patient when listening to my skin care concerns, and sent me home with a mirade of treats -which I won't disclose because I dont want anyone to get jealous, lol. I LOVE the top notch customer service and care here and the people that come along with it. Even though my insurance no longer covers my visits, I go anyway because I trust the level of expertise at FCM, and I feel like a part of the family on each visit. read more

I made an appointment with AURA MEDSPA through a cross reference. In writing this, I was hoping to find their business, but they're not listed anywhere else on Yelp. Yes...it's a beginning business thus a learning curve. I attended once and have said "never again" since. - I drive to S Tpa for fillers. The prices are comparable. I was hoping I could combine wax and filler appointments for more convenience. - The office (and in particular the front office) is often empty. That should've been a tell. I shouldn't have to ask for a consult as I'm leaving a wax session. - My S. Tpa experience includes a tele and day of consult, photos, and follow up appointments. None of this happened here. - When I asked for recommendations, what I got was: "whatever is on sale that month is what I put on my face." I tried Juveaux in all places of my forehead instead of simply the glabella, and saw no results. It was an absolute waste of time. While I shall continue coming to CERAPIEL for waxing, AURA MEDSPA wasn't able to create an impression. I'd rather see Dr Castellano. read more

Without a doubt, the WORST dermatologist I've ever seen. Condescending doesn't even begin to describe this 'doctor'. As I was explaining the reason my visit, Dr. Forman walked over and grabbed my head, turning it left and right as he dug his fingers into my scalp to look at my skin. It was completely bizarre and a violation of my space. Dr. Forman continuously interrupted me as I was trying to discuss my history and ask questions, and gave me patronizing, blunt answers. He didn't suggest any innovative treatment options and wrote me off when I said birth control made my skin worse (a highly common problem). BEWARE TO ALL FEMALE PATIENTS: Dr. Forman doesn't believe in hormonal acne, specifically estrogen dominance skin/health problems due to the environment or birth control. If you're looking for a genuinely caring doctor who wants to help you get better skin from the inside out, please look elsewhere. (On the other hand, if you're looking for a drug pusher who will write you an Rx for pretty much anything without caring...you're in luck!) read more

Dr. Bogle is my primary care here. I have never seen a physician provide such compassionate care. It's all very convenient since it has a lab and pharmacy on site read more

Experts in the field, always so kind and informative. Wonderful experience. Been going to them for quite some time and experience is always amazing! And incredible results! read more

I am so disappointed with ForCare. I heard so many great reviews about this place, but after 6 months of going to them, I still have acne. After years of having acne, I was tired of trying creams, cleaners, toners, etc. I just wanted something simple, that would clear my skin up fast for college. Therefore, during my original visit, I asked for Accutane. Instead of prescribing me Accuatne or another pill, the doctor gave me two separate creams, promising it would clear me up in a month or two. I am now 6 months in of religiously applying my creams and have the same amount of acne, if not more. I will now be going into college with acne, after paying for 6 months of prescriptions and refills, and now have to find another dermatologist. read more

Tracy was just the very best. My first time meeting with her at Aura Spa. She asked me questions and then made suggestions. When she was finished I was very pleased with the results. She was very professional as well as empathetic!! Ask for Tracy at Aura Spa. read more

I have to start with the fact that I don't as a habit do reviews... But I have to say I can't be more happy!! Truly a credit to his profession and the Tampa community. It was a unexpected and welcomed pleasure to be treated by him and his wonderful staff. If you or anyone you care about are in the need of a dermatologist do yourself a favor and call them first! You definitely won't regret it.. Thank you again Dr. Forman read more

One of main male doctors or surgeons there is a snide prick. I'm having a problem in my foot and I told him I'm also having issues with drug addiction and a separate skin issue, he barely looked for 2 seconds and suggested I go to an emergency room or a rehab or something. Was laughing and smiling like I'm a big joke to him. Told me he wouldn't perform any operation today because I admitted to being under the influence of a substance so that somehow affects my ability to consent to receiving medical treatment. Whatever I guess that's good enough legalese for him to hide behind but he made it plain to see he wasn't gonna do the operation because he wanted to play some big tough "intervention counselor" role and everything and I wasn't trying to hear any of that, I just wanted a blister removed which had nothing to do with drugs. So I wasn't gonna sit there and pretend like I care what he thought about me using drugs in order for him to do his actual job that I called off work for him to do. And since I wasn't going along with his little speech he decided to pull the "I'm not gonna do the procedure since you said you used drugs today" good thing I was honest with my doctor that sure did me a lot of good. So now I still got a blister I'm walking around on and I called off work for no reason, as well as being patronized by the dr here. Drs should take care of addicts, treat them with dignity, not like they are a loser, if you don't treat us right who do we go to?? And please don't reply saying you covered your ass by me saying I was under the influence. You know that has nothing to do with me consenting to have a blister drilled out from my foot, so don't sit here and try to lie and say you honestly thought I wasn't fit to make that decision. You were using bureaucracy in order to dehumanize and withhold medical treatment from someone who needed it. I hope you are comfortable in your nice little niche you carved for yourself where you can look down on others and help those freely as you choose to and don't deal with such petty burdens as having to perform a procedure whether you like the one receiving it or not read more

I have suffered with a rare auto-immune disorder since high school. This condition, called morphea, creates deep scars on my face. The disease has eaten away at my cheek bone and under the eye on my right side. I have been to 2 other doctors before coming to Dr. Forman for help. The prognosis I always received in the past were bleak--no known cure, only guesses about medications that could possibly slow the effect. I went in to see Dr Forman after I became concerned that the disease was starting to create even more scarring on my face after what has seemed like a period of remission. My expectations were low. I believed I would probably here the same sobering news that there was no known cure and nothing much could be done about it. He had no new marvelous cure for me, however Dr Forman was the very first dermatologist I went to who seemed to really "see" the disease. This has a significant impact on my appearance but other doctors have never really seemed to notice the real effects that I suffer with, that it has changed the shape of my face. This doctor actually seems to care about his patients on a much more personal level! He put me back on medication without requiring me to have additional biopsies (more scars created) done of my face and suggested after starting me back on medication to treat the affected areas with fillers to recreate the fullness that the scars have taken away--and he offered this cosmetic fix at no charge. I couldn't believe it! No other doctor has been able to make any suggestions that would actually minimize the ugly affects of my disease. I had no idea there were any methods of minimizing the damage as this was never offered to me by any of my past dermatologists. I just went in 3 days ago to be treated with the fillers. To my disbelief and amazement, the treatments have actually worked! My face is full where it was once sunken in quite badly. It's hard to put into written words what this treatment has meant to me. I was nearly hopeless when I visited Dr Forman's office just 2 months ago. Now I am excited for the future and not dreading what time will do to my face! If you are looking for a dermatologist who actually is interested in his patients and not simply their condition, please go see him. He has an energy and an enthusiasm in his practice and his patients that I have never seen before. read more

Dr Forman is not only good..but his office runs on time..never much of a wait... He is young and on top of the newest and best procedures in dermatology read more

Dr. Forman is a fabulous Physician. He is extremely proficient and efficient in his chosen field of Dermatology. He is attentive, patient and extremely personable. His Nurse Practitioner Jennifer is equally impressive, extremely skilled and quite competent. The Medical Assistants Jen and Victoria are engaging and knowledgeable about the procedures and the after care. His office manager Becky is always available to the Patient's for questions and/or concerns. From checking in with Madonna to checking out with Brittney this office is truly head and shoulders above other Dermatological practices on both sides of the Bay. I drive from Port Richey to Tampa if that gives you a general idea of just how phenomenal this staff is. read more

Today was our second appointment with Dr Forman. He was very personable and kind. We where there for a follow up for my Mom's psoriasis. We followed his instructions and she is nearly healed. He took time to answer any questions. Very knowledgeable and professional. Would recommend him to anyone who asks. read more

This might be a little long but I'll try to keep you entertained. I have seen multiple Derm's in the past and have had great success, I recently moved to the area and decided to go see him about dry/itchy spots on my face which turned out to be very bad sun damage! "Put sunscreen on!"-should have listened to my mom as I ran out the door as a kid. Anywho, the staff and Dr. Foreman's office have been nothing short of outstanding in every aspect. Professional, knowledgeable, and accommodating. He addressed my concerns on the first visit and knew exactly how to treat it, due to my skin complexion I need to see the dermatologist regularly and you can bet your...skin? I will be coming back to Dr. Forman from now going forward! He knows what he is doing, and it's clearly evident. Victoria has always been my nurse and she is amazing too, very easy to speak to and very nice. I always hate it when I have to wait in a waiting room for an hour after my appointment time and I have never sat long before being called back to be seen. Who can be in and out of a doctor office within 35-45 mins nowadays? So before you stop reading my novel, I would recommend anyone to come see him as their dermatologist and/or replace an existing! Thanks Dr. Foreman for helping cure/treat my pre-cancerous spots before it became something more serious! read more

Thank you Dr. Forman and staff for professional, timely, and thorough care. The office staff is warm and the office beautiful. I would highly recommend this practice. read more

This place used to be great... Sadly, not so much anymore. The quality of staff and care is not what I expect. They referred me to a pharmacy to fill an expensive prescription, which I was grateful for but now it has been 2 weeks and they have yet to fax over an authorization form of shorts that the pharmacy has faxed to them multiple times. I've tried to call and you must leave a message and they may return you call within 48 hrs. read more

My husband and I have been coming to Dr. Forman, now, for a few years and find him very professional and pleasant. We wanted to comment on our visit, today, because we are always so amazed on how efficient he runs his office. Today, we were in and out of his office in 20 minutes. We are never there for more than 30 minutes from the time we walk in and the time we walk out. There is not one other doctor we go to that we don't wait at least an hour.....just in the waiting room. Thank you Dr. Forman, for valuing our time, too! read more

First met Dr Forman after conducting an online search for local dermatologists in Feb 2012. My wife insisted that I get a spot on my back checked out. To appease her, I set an appt that happened to be on Valentines Day. Within a month, due to her prompting and Dr Forman's Professional Diagnosis, I was recovering from melanoma surgery at Moffitt Cancer Center. Over the years, I've gone back in to get biopsies on other areas of concern, but Praise The Lord they have come back with clear margins! Saw Dr Forman again 3 days ago on Valentines Day and currently waiting on one more biopsy result. But it really is a relief to have confidence that no matter what the diagnosis is, a game plan will be put in place for the best possible outcome. Thankful for my wife for MAKING me visit in the first place, Moffitt for removing the main issue 5 years ago and for the Peace of Mind that comes with having Dr Forman as my Dermatologist! read more

My family and I have been patients of Dr. Forman for quite sometime. Not only is he a phenomenal doctor, he genuinely cares about his patients and their health. Today, I was seeing another associate, Casey for a cosmetic treatment. This was my first time at the new location and boy was I in for a treat! The building is very visible from the road and easily accessible. There is plenty of parking which is much needed when you are running late for an appointment :-). When you first walk in, it feels like you entered a spa rather than a doctor's office. The front office staff is very welcoming and courteous. The wait time is incredibly minimal especially in comparison to any other medical offices I have been to. Casey was absolutely lovely and incredibly knowledgeable. I was able to explain all my concerns without feeling rushed. She took her time (very rare these days) explaining treatments available to address my concerns and I got to make an informed decision based on knowledge and information she provided. While there, I also discovered that ForCare is a one stop for several medical specialties. If I could give more than five stars, I would! read more

Dr. Forman is hands down the best dermatologist in Tampa! My whole family sees him- from my father in-law to my three year old daughter. He has treated us for both medical (skin cancers, wart removal, eczema, yearly skin checks and acne) and cosmetic reasons. Regardless of the purpose he always takes his time and makes each one of us feel like a priority. His office staff is friendly and always make my kids (ages 11, 8 and 3) feel comfortable. I would HIGHLY recommend Forman Dermatology to anyone looking for a dermatologist. read more

It was easy to make an appointment and didn't have to wait a month for the office visit. The staff was very nice and friendly. Dr Forman was very pleasant and had a comforting manor. Dr Forman performed procedures that would not leave a scar and he referred me to a cosmetic surgeon for the additional work I need to have done. I really appreciated his concern of the scaring and he didn't just perform the work. read more

Dr. Forman is the BEST dermatologist in town! My children, my parents, my friends and I are all patients. He is caring, kind and very thorough. Unlike many doctors in the Tampa Bay area, Dr. Forman takes his time and asks a lot of questions. He doesn't prescribe treatments/medications unless it is necessary. I have been to other offices in the area that sold me creams/solutions that I didn't even need/want. Dr. Forman is a wonderful physician with a great bedside manner. I highly recommend Dr. Forman! read more
