Great bedside manner each time we saw him over the past two years. He answered all of our seemingly unending questions with patience. The staff, too, have been friendly and seem to really care.

Where do I begin? There are some commendable people who work here - one or two at the front desk…read more(others are snooty and a pain the rear), almost every nurse I've seen is great, and the large majority of the nurses in the infusion center are wonderful. Others are easily offended if you dare to ask questions or disagree with any little thing. The problems: The phone system makes me want to NEVER call them. The first sign its a huge corporation is you have to call a dang call center, recite your information every time, and then leave your message. They then call the center you're seen at and the appropriate person will call you whenever they feel like they can. If you are unfortunate to miss the call, you will get a generic message to call them back and the whole things starts all over again, even though they could have left you a message about what you specifically ,called about. I'm old school, and I despise all this runaround. They employ enough staff - have someone actually answer your phones at the office! This problem of making a (often sick) cancer patient come in a day before their treatment to have their blood drawn - EVERY TIME. When you're receiving chemo, this is a lot. Please organize yourselves better to take the blood of the patient you're seeing that day. Lately, I've also been charged by Renown, so they don't run all their own blood anymore. Quit making life difficult rather than easier for cancer patients. There are many other things I could mention, but this would be novel instead of a review. You have to be your own advocate here or they will walk all over you, your wishes be damned. You will not be given many, if any, solutions to the problems and pain that arise with treatment. Finally, the doctor. Ahhh, well, one example: I asked a question about severe pain I was having, and she replied "Oh, if it was that you'd already be dead." This describes in a nutshell her bedside manner. If you're looking for more than a "by the book, this is how you treat this type of cancer," you're out of luck here. If you refuse a particular treatment, you're almost treated like a child who has been bad. I think they forget just whose body this is you've been paid quite well to treat. I don't expect you to work miracles, but if a treatment has caused a reaction, yes, I expect you to treat it, not send me to urgent care. My hell. My prognosis isn't good, but I'm still alive, and I have choices, and I'm doing my best. Now, do yours, CCS. You know you're not.

I have been a patient of Dr. Forsythe for almost nine-years and recommend him highly, after all when I first met Dr back in 2015 I was told by conventional oncology that I was borderline stage four with a non-hodgkins lymphoma diagnosis, Never going down the road of conventional care, Dr Forsythe and his staff treated me from the get go, and I have been living life to the fullest with no limitations and with a circulating tumor count now down to just 1.9! Dr. Forsythe is truly my hero, and I am so grateful that I have been under his marvelous clinic's care for all these years with such great success! TY Dr. Forsythe and Team!!

Do your homework and be ready to spend 10's of thousands of cash dollars!…read more Due to his age (86 or 87), Dr. Forsythe is no longer capable of being in the medical field yet he continues to deal with patients. He needs to step down and will not. Towards the end of our relationship with the clinic, on a phone call with Dr. Forsythe, his office manager was in the background whispering, telling him what to say. She covers for him at the drop of a hat. He called my husband Ken three different names and did not know who he was talking to or what it was about. After that we were done talking with him. My husband has stage 4 prostrate cancer metastasized to the bones. When we first spoke with Dr. Forsythe in Dec. 2023, he actually sounded more like a used car salesman. Yet we moved forward as he was recommended by our local doctor. She had a patient who, at the time was please with her treatment there and we were looking for treatment outside of traditional medicine. This patient no longer will go back to the clinic either. She recommended the clinic to two other people who also had bad experiences there. Our doctor will no longer recommend this clinic. The staff was nice and appeared caring. They all seemed to have had some life threatening illness and possibly they were hired to be able to relate to the patients. Dr. Maged was the best doctor there. He is kind, calm attentive and insightful. He does not support what is happening there now. There are very little if no follow up calls, and questions seem to be side stepped. Within the first couple of visits we were handed a handful of prescriptions, some of which were hardly explained as to when and why they had to be filled. For the months Ken was under his care, we repeatedly heard him say the same lines over and over again; it was like they were canned. There was generally another oncologist there overseeing conversations. We thought he was in training, however we now know he was making sure Dr. Forsythe was not giving misinformation. My husband was misdiagnosed by Dr. Forsythe, telling us that the severe problem Ken was having on the right side of his face was caused by the monthly XGeva shots he was prescribed. Ken had Bell's Palsy in his 20's and now is 81. Dr. Forsythe told us not to go to a neurologist as they would only put Ken on steroids and that the Bells Palsy may eventually go away. The clinic does not believe in having images done on patients to see where the cancer is. They do not check your blood other than the ONCO draw which is over $5,000. You have to have your local physician order blood draws to see how you are doing. The clinic also does not look to see what else can be causing a patient to slowly fail during their treatment. Ken was slowly going downhill, getting weaker and losing weight fast. He was a very active man who worked out in the filed up until we attended the clinic which was Feb 2024. Our local integrative physician found Ken's thyroid to be off, something which was causing his system to fail. The problem with his face; chewing, eyesight, taste, numbness, pressure, complete loss of hearing on the right side and pain continued. Dr. Maged suggested that we see a neurologist, Dr. Forsythe overruled it. By phone Dr. Maged encouraged us to see a neurologist who ordered images, it turned out Ken has cancer in the bones of his face, none of this was caused by the XGeva shot or Bells Palsy. We feel that Dr. Forsythe was not capable of treating Ken's advanced cancer. The clinic is working to prove his methods work and we failed to make sure the clinic had treated Ken's type of cancer, the stage of the cancer and on someone his age. The clinic did not offer this information. Let's talk about the money. Nothing was given to us in advance stating the amount of money for the treatments as a whole. We wound up paying around $50,000 for treatments that failed. They offer you a chance to receive a $5,000 grant, ya right! Each office visit was thousands of dollars. The staff is trying very hard to cover up for Dr. Forsythe's failing memory and age by side stepping the quality of care for the patients. It's his "show" and he does not want to step down. I would hope that any one considering this clinic will "do their homework", ask many, many questions and get all of it in writing. If possible, do not deal with Dr. Forsythe as it more like the stories of Joe Biden. He'll stand you up on phone calls and his office manager will tell you he had "an emergency to attend to". It is a sad situation of a doctor who needs to step down and won't. I would hope that anyone considering this clinic will be cautious, they are quick to take your money with a straight face. Side note: My husband is getting better thanks to people who have stepped up to help us navigate what happened. We are now back with traditional medicine and have great hopes that he will continue to get stronger and healthier. We won't be returning to the Forsythe Cancer Clinic.

I saw Dr Margaret Van Meter for cancer treatment starting a couple of years ago. She is a…read morecompetent doctor, but if you want any degree of discretion or compassion from this physician you can look elsewhere. I was upset and depressed (obviously - who wouldn't be) about my cancer diagnosis. The treatment was difficult and had long lasting effects. I had made comments about my experiences and how difficult my life felt at the time. She quoted every comment and wrote psychiatric notes that were very, very damaging. Although I am quite sane (as can be confirmed by any of my other doctors), her notes are negative to the point of making me look like a patient in severe need of psychiatric treatment, and possibly needing institutional commitment. Again, this doctor is well trained and has a lot of experience. If you do decide to see her, be very careful what you say. If you are depressed or upset or angry about your condition, hide it from her. Otherwise she will quote everything you say to her in confidence and it will be a PERMANENT part of your medical record. To make matters worse, Dr Van Meter made a point to send this information to every doctor she knew I had at the time. What fit of passive aggressiveness could have inspired this action? Luckily, my relationships with primary care and other doctors are very good and they appeared not to be influenced by this barrage of negativity and judgmentalism. It was interesting that there were many other appointments in which I was cheerful or positive, but this was not noted.
