Patient Reviews
Jul 14, 2022
Dr. Farmer combines old fashioned doctor manners while utilizing modern science very well. He spends time with patients. Asks questions about conditions, background, life issues to get a better sense of what’s going on and their potential impacts on your condition. He subscribes best medicines for your conditions and makes holistic recommendations as well. I have dropped other specialist doctors over the years because Dr. Farmer has been able to help my specific medical conditions wholly and knows what’s going on. I have been going to him since the early 2000’s I have recommended him to families, friends and colleagues.
