Excellent bedside manners. She was very attentive and really heard me out about my back pain and walked me through the process and what would be the best course of action. Overall this was an amazing experience.

Dr.Kristy and supporting staff are cool and very helpful.
March 30, 2016Suresh Kumar Y.Verified patient
Personally felt like Dr. Farris didn't care to answer any of my questions or address my concerns about my diagnosis. She essentially came in, barely said a few words, did a few physical exam maneuvers, recommended further imaging, said I might need surgery, and started for the door.
More than 1 year agoRajiv V.Verified patient
I went to this doctor as she was the only available doctor during the time and I walked out of the appointment with mixed feelings as to whether the doctor is knowledgeable in spine related injuries or not. I wouldn’t come back to this doctor if it’s related to sciatica it’s spine related injuries.

January 30, 2015Tarun B.Verified patient
She and her staff are very kind and professional. She explained in further detail the extent of the injury, because the hospital I originally went to was a bit careless. She worked her schedule around for the next morning to fit in the surgery which was urgently required. Glad to have found her!

I was impressed with Dr. Kristy. She took the time to evaluate my issues and explained what was going on, how I need to proceed. I've been to other Orthopedic doctors but hadn't received as great care as with Dr. Kristy.
More than 1 year agoDarlene S.Verified patient
Doctor Farris is the best doctor. She takes time with you, discusses your problem in detail and tells you the pros and cons of your condition. That's why I keep coming back to her. She's experienced and very knowledgeable about shoulders, knees and hips.

Kristy was great! After thoroughly examining me she advised that I get an x-ray where I was able to walk across the street and get one within an hour. She then reviewed the film and advised a step by step process that would help with my injury. I appreciated the fact that she recommended several things that I could do starting with the least invasive approach. The consultation visit was very informative.
