I went to Dr. Farac for a recommendation on treatment for a bunion. Since if doesn't hurt, he said not to do anything at this point, but told me what to look out for in the future. I also asked him about another toe on the same foot, which still hurts 3 months after being injured. He told me there could be a tiny break in the bone, and it may help to bind it to an adjoining toe. Parking was very convenient and was free.
He is a caring doctor who is willing to take the time to explain what is happening and what options are available to help your condition.

Awesome! Doctor Farac is so polite, patience and easy to talk to. A doctor who actually cares vs treating you as an appointment. He's not aggressive or too passive about his advice, just perfect in including all the information necessary for the patient (me) to make whatever decision I want. Doctor Farac is great! He answered all my questions, took to the time to understand my lifestyle. I felt comfortable to explain my lifestyle, habits and such to receive honest feedback.
