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.

Misdiagnosis, failure to follow up
Nice guy, who misdiagnosed me, told me he would get back to me if he received information that contradicted his initial assessment and did not. Told me to have see a sub specialist who would be dealing with a symptom, not the cause. His explanation that everything was normal contradicted my symptoms .I reviewed the test results, which also contradicted him, and just saw a sub specialist neurologist, who did the same.

Came to see Dr. Farkash for my daughter who had facial nerve pain. He had a very pleasant demeanor and we found him to be very thorough. We left feeling confident that he would help her find out what is going on. I definitely recommend him.

I give my highest recommendation for Dr. Farkash for anyone who has nerve damage from a car accident and conservative treatment including pain management treatments do not work. His experience, knowledge and instincts are unparalleled in his field. For me, he confirmed my cervical nerve damage and referred me to a top neurosurgeon who operated on my neck c7-t1 acdf. It will be a long recovery but I am confident and patient.
