Very to-the-point, but I like that in a doctor. He treated me very kindly. Also knew that I was having problems with my asthma and I'd forgotten to mention it in the list of my other symptoms. :)

Been with Dr. Farah for many years. He is always helpful and knowledgeable. I occasionally bring my family to see him too.
