Patient Reviews
Feb 17, 2018
20 years ago, I was struggling with a lifelong-series of work and personal setbacks that never matched my “potential”. I began working with Dr. Fargason, and I can truly say she changed my life by helping me cope with my Adult ADD. I am now a Sr. Mgr at a large bank and have been with this employer for nearly a decade. She even noticed a very small symptom that lead to the early discovery of a pituitary tumor. I am and always will be forever grateful to her!
