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.

Recent Epidural
Staff is wonderful ... from the facilities to the front desk to the nursing/anathesiologist/to Dr. Farnum. After 4 months of pain, I felt immediate relief through the night, with the slightest-of-slightest tinge in my knee this morning. Expect nothing but the best results in the days going forward. Thank you.

I saw Dr. Farnum June 2018 for an epidural. He was very nice and professional. I've had many injections for my back and his was the only one that worked. I was pain free for 3 months, others lasted a few weeks if that.. I recently had 2 injections from another doctor, but will be calling Dr. Farnum soon!!
