Patient Reviews
Nov 10, 2023
Dr. Farkas has been my PCP for about 2 1/2 years. He is amazingly thorough, knowledgeable, takes a lot of time with me, and is an astute listener. Two years ago he did some lab tests which discovered my likelihood of prostate cancer. My previous physicians for the last 10 years had not bothered to include a psa. Because of Dr. Farkas I have subsequently had successful treatment. I HIGHLY recommend him.
