Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Professional, compassionate care
I cannot begin to say enough about Dr. Forsthoefel and the team at Radiotherapy Centers of Kentuckiana located on DuPont Circle in Louisville. They are 'champions' of professional, compassionate care. Priscilla, Leslie, Courtney and the rest of the team helped make a difficult situation easier while doing so in a fun manner. I truly appreciate all they did and highly recommend them to anyone going through a similar situation.

radiooncologist
In addition to many weekly appointments with Dr. Forsthoefel during my 45 radiation treatments, I saw him several times before treatments started and will be seeing him on a continuing basis since my treatments have stopped. I find him to be very professional. He thoroughly explains the process beforehand and always honestly addresses my questions and concerns. I would recommend him to anyone with cancer. Most of his patients have prostate cancer.
