Knowledgeable and Compassionate
He's thorough and thoughtful and a master of his craft
Dr Ferrell is great. He explains his procedures very well and takes plenty of time for his appointments. He has successfully treated my numerous sports related injuries. I injured my back 60 years ago and it’s been bothered me every day. After Dr Ferrell treated me and I went to PT, my back is fine, no pain and a huge improvement in my flexibility.
Very impressive and committed health professional. Great manner and good communication skills.
Personable, informative and caring!
I cannot speak highly enough of Dr. Pharrell. He is an outstanding orthopedic and sports medicine doctor who has truly made a difference in my life. Through his expertise, I was given alternative treatment options for my knees that have been remarkably successful. His professionalism, careful post-procedure protocols, and attentive follow-ups have made me feel completely supported throughout the process. I have recommended Dr. Pharrell to all of my friends, and I’ve even encouraged strangers who were struggling with mobility to seek his care. That’s how much confidence I have in him. Thanks to Dr. Pharrell, I’ve experienced real healing and relief — and I am deeply grateful.”
I’ve seen a number of MDs since breaking my arm. Three years run around. I’m so very grateful I finally found Dr Ferrell. I am 8 weeks post MFAT to my shoulder. Doing better than anytime in past 3 years. Brilliant and kind. A rare combination. Staff excellent
Very attentive, thorough, knowledgeable, And focused treatment planning.
John is the best!
Fantastic and super knowledgeable
