Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

First visit. Doctor Farbman was very attentive and responsive to my questions/concerns. Explained diagnoses and treatment options in detail, answering all my questions along the way. Explained the examination and the results in detail and why he was performing them. Also explained the sample medication he gave me to include dosage options, side effects, placement and treatment of the patch and its usage with other medications. This is the best doctor experience I have had in many years. The office personnel were also great to work with. Received multiple reminders via email as time to my appointment grew closer. Just a great group of people and a superb doctor.

Dr Farbman is not as knowledgeable as he says he is. During my first and only visit with him, he told me that Parkinson's isnt not genetic (there is some genetic propensities to Parkinson's-) " Researchers believe that Parkinson's is caused by a combination of factors. If a continuum existed, with genetic causes at one end and environmental causes at the other, people with Parkinson's would fall at many different places. Some cases may be due more to genetics, and others more influenced by environmental factors. We know aging plays a role, too. Scientists are working hard to understand the triggers and the cascade of cellular changes that lead to Parkinson's. Knowing more about the cause could help researchers develop treatments to stop or even prevent the disease. There is a genetic component to Parkinson's, with researchers estimating that about 30 Look it up on Michael j Fox website /causes

Always kind and approachable. Dr. Farbman is very knowledgable and I appreciate the time he takes to make me feel like I am in good hands. I have recommended him to a co-worker, who also has a seizure disorder.
