To say that Dr. Fortin changed my life is an understatement. I was born with myelomeningocele, the…read moremost severe of the three forms of spina bifida. The operation I had as 3-month-old (by another phenomenal surgeon) left me with nerve damage along the left side of my left leg along with a club foot, causing me to walk on the outside of my foot. A year and a half ago (after 31 years of countless foot doctor appts with other doctors, leg braces, orthotics, foot sprains & breaks, and extreme frustration) Dr. Fortin performed a tendon transfer and realigned my foot. I now am more active than ever! I play tennis with a freedom I never experienced before and can finally wear any kind of shoe I want, without having to wear a brace. Dr. Fortin is not only a skilled surgeon, but also just a great human being. You can sense his genuine care for his patients and he always maintains the utmost professionalism in all his interactions. Thank you, Dr. Fortin. You didn't just change my life; he gave me a life I never dreamed I could have!

My husband and I went to see Dr. Ahad once for the annual checkup. Everything was fine and we were…read moresatisfied. Then three months later I felt pain in my chest, and my heart rate was high suddenly. I went to see him again, he said it's nothing, just your muscles and he prescribed muscle relaxer! I took the pills for another week and got worse. Called him, he said maybe your heart then, do the blood test. I did the blood test immediately and then although the test result was normal, he called me and asked me to go to the emergency room on Saturday night at 10 PM! We went to ER, were there until next morning and did lots of tests, and everything was normal (they told me we don't know why he sent you to ER at all but if you like you can ask him to write a CT scan to be sure everything is ok!) I called him to send me a CT scan order he told me I should schedule another appointment and see him again to give me the test order!! I scheduled another appointment and went to see him, and he said ok if you want to do the CT scan here is the order (he could do that without asking me to go and pay for another visit). I told him BTW I had thyroid problems before (he knew that from my files), do you think we should test it too? He said, hm it's not from thyroid but why not, let's test that too! I checked my thyroid, and it was super high!!! Finally, it turned out that it was my thyroid, not my heart or muscles !! I ended up paying 3000$ for ER and 400$ for the office visits !!! I WILL NOT recommend him for anything more than an annual checkup...

Dear Dr. Michael Wiater,…read more I felt compelled to write you this letter. You treated my son Jordan Field sometime back in 2011-2012. He had been given up on by all other doctors in our area at the time and was deemed a lost cause, not in words as much as willingness by other doctors. You saved his life, you gave him back a life he thought he couldn't have. You took a chance on him and his complications. I am forever grateful for the many years my son lived after receiving surgery from you. My son recently passed away on March 18, 2024, by going to the Dentist. Of course, I can not discuss what happened to him, but, I can assure you that it should have never happened. I just wanted you to know that I have thought of you and what a difference you have made. I have been through a lot in my short time on this earth and I have encountered many doctors and professionals in healthcare and many could learn from you! I know Jordan appreciated you also, because we had talked about you periodically. You saw him just last year and said how well he was still doing. That is what makes his death so difficult. He was finally accomplishing everything he thought he had lost from an accident that wasn't his fault in 2010, The dreams he lost with that accident. He found another way after you. So again, Thank you, for being the kind of doctor who listens, takes chances, gives hope where there is none sometimes, and for not missing important details. Those are gifts that not everyone has. My deepest gratitude Michelle Rzanca

I wish I could mark no stars for this review. The only reason I even came to this office was to…read morefollow Tracy Picmann, NP, from her previous office. I have severe health anxiety and felt extremely comfortable in Tracy's care. When I came to this office, I was already annoyed by the 20-30 min wait times before you're even called into a room. The office staff is never accountable or apologetic for anything. If anything, Rose and Gabby go out of their way to be petty. If there is an issue at the office they will never speak to you, they make other people call you back. Rose did a PA for a medication once, under my maiden name, after already giving them my new married name and new drivers license. I went round and round with the pharmacy and the office until I requested to see the PA approval form. Had Rose taken two seconds to speak to me about it, she would've realized her error. Instead she was rude to me via email correspondence, and made it seem like I was the reason for all of the confusion. Don't even get me started on the amount of times I have had my prescriptions sent to the incorrect pharmacy and 30 day refills after requesting 90 day refills for non-narcotic meds. I have lapsed in my medications that cannot be stopped abruptly 3 times because of their inefficiencies. When I spoke to the office mang., Brandy, regarding my frustration's of the office, her response was wild. She said and I quote "yah F*&k my life, I gave two many employees time off with checking to see who was off first". I myself work in a medical office and am appalled that the office mang speaks to patients in this way. Even after all of this, I stayed because Tracy is a WONDERFUL practitioner who actually listens to you. Well, today was the final straw. After being scheduled for med refill and bloodwork appt, I showed up for my appt, only to be told that HE'LL be in shortly. When I asked who "he" was, I was told Dr Patterson will be in to explain everything. I have historically only seen Tracy the NP, and had never even met Dr Patterson. Brandie the office mang never once said anything to me that my provider had changed, let alone that Tracy was no longer even a part of the practice. After waiting until 9:20am for my 8:40 appt, I walked out. I asked for a records release to sign as I was leaving and could hear the back office talking about me. How I just "walked out". Now that Tracy is gone, I will never return to this office. Dr Patterson is transitioning to concierge medicine and will now be requiring an annual fee for tiered patient care. I already pay my copays, deductibles, and coinsurances. I would never pay an annual fee for a Doctor who doesn't give a shit about how shitty his office runs or how they treat their patients.

My fears were put at ease as soon as I met Dr. Pellerito. He has a calming personality and is very patient and easy to talk to. I'm going through treatment now and I've already had success. It took a while to decide what I wanted to do and he understood my concerns and let me steer my own ship as far as what choices I had. His office staff is pleasant to interact with and the waiting room is large. Yes there are many doctors at this practice but there is still plenty of seating. I was fortunate to have my friend recommend Dr. Pellerito and it's reassuring to know that such a kind and caring doctor has my best interests in mind.

Associated Orthopedics of Detroit is the oldest practice in the State of Michigan, which was…read moreFounded in 1940. The team here are experts in the field of osteopathy, orthopedic, and sports medicine. My connection with this well known practice, is four(4) different doctors since 2015. My parents (RIP) were also patients of Dr. Andrew Ajluni for my Mother's fractured hips after falling, then my Father for his broken wrist with Dr. Michael Demers in the past 10 years at the St. Clair Shores office. Therefore = (1st & 2nd Doctors ) I became a patient of Dr. James Bookout (#3) for my left knee in early December 2018. After x-rays and a scan, it was concluded I have lack of cartilage in both my knees, left worse. The easy term is called "bone on bone" which causes swelling at the end of my busy days. In order to prolong surgery, he suggested a orthopedic knee brace for 2 months which helped greatly to re-enforce my left knee for up to 10 hours.( brace bought at Dick's sporting store with discount from Dr.) I may use the sleeve brace when kneeling for long periods of time, but not on a daily basis since the 4 gel shots have helped after 2 weeks of final appointment and injection. After 6 months he suggested an office treatment with 4 weekly 5cc gel shots back in July 2019. I will warn: It's a painful shot and needle "Sharp hit the bone" injection. I was light headed afterwards due to the excitement? NOT... my anxiety. Then 1 day of a soft ice pack 3x a day for my re-balancing. After 3 days, I was happy with my walking and enjoy my daily exercise workouts without pain or stiffness plus easy kneeling mobility. Dr. Bookout was very polite, patient with my questions and he explains in details about the knee with alternative treatments. I hope I will NOT need any future surgery but if so, he will be my choice to repair my bone loss. I am also a patient with Dr. Matthew Brewster (#4) a foot surgeon for a right bone spur which was diagnosed in November 2019. (Thanks Mom same foot she had back in 1997). Dr. Brewster has not rushed surgery and has recommended other alternative medical treatments to use. I was put on a 10 day steroid medication to help the pain and I'm using "Diclofenac Sodium Topical Gel 2x a day for inflammation which has helped like liquid Advil to subsidize my pain. My last appointment was on Tuesday, March 3rd to "give in" for a 3cc shot (small needle) of cortisone into the joint area of my right big toe. It helped to get me back walking without pain and to prolong my needed foot surgery till summer time. I hope the shot will last long, but I will follow up with Dr. Brewster in late May to decide. He is so kind and helpful to ease my mind. My walking has been pain-free both inside and outside the house. I also bought a pair of special charcoal orthotic inserts from Hanson's shoes to help with my 5000/ 6000 steps daily. I highly recommend these dedicated quality surgeons in this orthopedic medical practice. The office atmosphere and staff is welcoming and the exam rooms are hygienic and private. The doctors are attentive and professional to all patients. FYI: The business card which is attached and my photos will show many other professional doctors who also practice here as well. Example: Shoulder, Hand, Knee, Foot, Hips... The receptionists at check-in are very pleasant. The assistant to the medical doctors in exam rooms are caring and attentive like the doctors. At check-out the employees are polite to conclude my appointment promptly. The practice has a great team of passionate and professionals along with staff. They are equipped with the technical medical equipment so no need to go elsewhere for radiology. They offer 2 offices in Shelby Township and St. Clair Shores. I was also pleased to get a Yelp tip from an Elite friend, who is also a patient here. Therefore As I always say and I am true in my personal opinion: "Yelpers are Helpers!" I have attached a business card along with my helpful photos. The office is located on Schoenherr Rd. In lower level of the Henry Ford Medical & Urgent Care Building near 23 Mile Rd. My final comment as I finish my review: "NO PAIN, NO GAIN is an exercise motto that promises greater value rewards for the price of hard and even painful work. Under this conception competitive professionals, such as athletes and artists, are required to endure pain and stress to achieve professional excellence." "So Keep Moving To All Young & Old !!!" :-)
