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.

Dr. Farah has been my primary care doctor and skin doctor for over 10 years. He is always willing to spend considerable time addressing my needs. I have found him to be caring and articulate about what is the best way to eliminate pain and keep me healthy. I have been extremely pleased with his advice and care. M.G.L.

A woman in his office made a mess of my face after injecting me with what is "supposed to be" Juvaderm. I was a puffy mess and now have white puffy areas around my mouth a year later. Farah claimed this was an allergic reaction. Really? One that is permanent? Besides, I've had this procedure done many times elsewhere with great results. Steer clear of this "bogus" doctor if you value your face.

First of all he can't speak English very well , like you supposed to guess what he is trying to say most of the times. Beside that he is sort of baby boomers who doing his business in a very old fation way, Kind of I haven't seen anyone like him but he said in this town he doesn't know any other expert doctor like him. :)
