Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Farrell is very good. Great bedside manner.
This M.D. is thorough and has a great bedside manner. His nurse is wonderful too. Visits are not rushed and your concerns are addressed. Best M.D. I have ever had. The understaffing at the front desk leaves something to be desired, but seeing Dr. Ferral is worth it.

Dr. Farrell took a lot of time with me for my new patient appointment--asked a lot of pertinent questions (as well as answering all of mine). He did a thorough exam and finished up with recommendations based on his findings. In this day and age when the pressure is on docs to move patients in and out of the office as quickly as possible, I feel fortunate that Dr. Farrell is willing to take the time to talk with and listen to me. I'd recommend him to anyone looking for a primary care doc.

This guy does not care about you and has terrible bedside manners. Iv litteraly left his office with one knee greatly larger than the other. He said it was a normle healthy knee, and had to get advice about my body from the guy behind the desk at gnc. If you don’t like his first recommendation he will tell you there is nothing else that can be done. If you go to this doctor you aren’t putting your mental and physical health at risk.
