All staff I encountered from the greeter, security, front desk staff, nurses, and MD were kind, patient, and empathetic. I felt like everyone cared about me and did everything they could do to ensure my experience was a good one and it was.

I was coming in from Long Island and due to very late traffic I arrived at my appointment very early. The staff got me right in and I was seen by Dr. Farmer promptly. He was very thorough and his examination and explanation and answered all the questions that my wife and myself had.

I came to Dr. Farmer as a second opinion, and he provided me with clear answers and a level of trust that made me comfortable to decide that he was better choice with regards to SurgeonS

Dr. Farmer was the 1st doctor that I've seen on this issue that I felt listened to me & took my pain seriously. I was already mentally, physically & emotionally tired of being in pain everyday and was afraid of but knew surgery was my only option, and even though Im still apprehensive, I do feel a lot better and am ready for the reprieve

Dr. Farmer has a calming demeanor which quickly calmed me. He took time with me, answered questions and spoke so that I could understand what was going to happen. I recommended him to a friend of mine and her surgery is coming up.

Dr Farmer has been amazing. He has been incredibly patient with me, knowing I would need surgery sooner than I was willing to accept. 2 weeks post op at this point and he did a wonderful job.
