Dr. Forno was on call for the orthopedic group when my husband became ill after surgery. He examined my husband in the parking lot and took no vitals! He examined the surgical incision, said give him Tylenol for the fever (he did not take my husband's temperature, merely noted the incision was warm) and sent us on our way. I took my husband's temperature when we got home and it was very high so I took him to the ER where it was finally discovered he had severe pneumonia. Had Dr. Forno opened the office and taken basic vitals we would have known my husband was dangerously ill and in need of immediate treatment. In addition the doctor was very rude and appeared to be annoyed at having to attend to a patient at all
