He understands medicine like no one else AND understands his patients perspective and concerns. He is taking medicine out of the 1800’s and brining it into the 2000’s.

As a new patient, I was impressed by the efficiency and thoroughness of the office.
I was very fortunate to have my appointment the day before Halloween, so the office staff costumes were an extra bonus.
Dr. Farmer was exceptionally efficient in his diagnosis and thorough with his follow up.

Loved meeting Dr Farmer. Appreciate him taking time, asking questions and listening, not rushing me out the door. Which is why I left my last ortho. I already have my new Rx on the way, looking forward to feeling better and stronger hopefully soon.
