Great experience! This is rare now days. Dr Fourman treated me like a human being and did not push anything on me. He listened and composed a plan of action with steps to follow in the case that the first plan does not work for me. I will be recommending to my family and friends suffering from back pain.

I was very nervous as I wanted to know if I needed surgery. Dr.Fourman was excellent in explaining why I didn't need it & and what was wrong with me, in detail ? He listened to me and calmed me down. He has an amazing bedside manner and knows his stuff! I really appreciated his humanity. I'm looking forward to my new treatment plan going forward.

He is very friendly communication is very clear. He wasn't rushing He give time to know the patient problem and understand. I was very compatible talking to him.
June 17, 2025Fardaus B.Verified patient
Dr. Fourman is a knowledgeable and attentive specialist. He took the time to listen and understood that I’ve been managing scoliosis pain for years while also dealing with sacroiliac pain more recently. He didn’t dismiss my experience and made sure to address my current pain by referring me for a steroid injection and prescribing new medication. When the time comes for surgery in the next few years, I wouldn’t trust anyone else to do it. Highly recommend him for anyone dealing with spine or joint issues.
