Patient rating: 5 stars
“Good experience. Dr. Forest was great. I had x-rays, then an injection in my hand. I was seen after a short delay. My finger improved, but not enough. I'll likely need surgery to improve more.”

“Dr. Forest was personable and knows her trade. I have nothing but positive things to say, and I appreciate the treatment she provided. I needed an injection today and no one looks forward to that, Dr. Forest had a great way of making me feel at ease, and "important". I felt like I had her 100% attention. I hope I don't have to go back, but I wouldn't hesitate if I needed to.”

“This is my second time with Dr. Forest. Last November she put pins in my broken pinky and saw me through until January. Now I am seeing her for my broken right elbow. She listens to what you have to say and incorporates that into her plan of care. She takes her time and answers all your questions before she leaves. Would recommend her to anyone.”

“Dr. Erin Forest performed surgery on my hand and fingers due to damage from traumatic injuries. After I spent several hours in the Emergency Room Dr. Forest met me in pre-op and was very kind and caring even though it was well after midnight. She was very reassuring and kind. Her surgical skills provided an excellent outcome and I have totally recovered and have full function in my injured hand and fingers.”

Dr. Forest explained if the injection did not work that I would need minor surgery and explained all I needed to know. She is exceptional and I was totally pleased with the service and attention I needed from her. Thank you Dr. Forest.”

“I had shoulder replacement surgery. The surgery was performed by Dr. Forest and I would not have believed it could go so well. She talked with me about what to expect and answered all of my questions. The discomfort was minimal and the recovery is progressing far better than expected. I would definitely recommend Dr. Forest to anyone who is contemplating shoulder, arm or hand surgery. Now, I am ready to get on with my life. Thank you Vero Orthopaedics and Dr. Forest.”

“Dr. Forest was great to deal with from start to finish. Her aide, Lauren, is also really great and helped me out on several occasions. I had hand surgery for Dupuytrens's Contracture and my results were excellent. I had some nerve pain issues (which I have had before on other surgeries) and Dr. Forest was helpful in controlling my pain.”

“This is my second physician at VOVN and like Dr. Peden, Dr. Forest provided top notch care, but as important to me, was patient and listened to any question I had and no matter how ridiculous patiently answered them all. Dr. Forest was clear on the procedure and even worked with my other surgeon to do her procedure at the same time as my knee surgery so I would not need a second surgery appointment, anesthesia etc.”
