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.

Great doctor
Walking into the office in Lake Worth is always a pleasant experience. The girls are so kind. Dr Forte is an amazing person and doctor. I always trust what he says and I know I’m in the best hands. Will be having my second hip surgery in a few months and I know I will get the best care possible. I highly recommend him.Deb Thrash

Why leave me in the dark?
Saw Dr. Forte on January 20th. He saw me about a knee replacement. Said the gal who does scheduling will call me in a few days. Heard nothing. Went there in person to complain 2 weeks later to find out why this scheduler never called me. Nothing again. Called the doctor’s line asking to have the doctor call me. Again, nothing.Why should I have this doctor do my knee replacement? His staffer never called me and the doctor didn’t return my call either! It’s February 6th, and NO RESPONSE! NO REPLY!!

Caring and professional experience with Dr. Forte
Dr. Forte is not just a great physician he is also very pleasant and caring. He listens attentively to me and takes the time to explain my symptoms and recommends treatment. I feel confident that Dr. Forte will give me excellent care. The office staff and physical therapists are also very professional and treat patients with kindness and friendliness. I would definitely recommend Atlantis Orthopedics.
