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.

I have always had a positive experience with Dr. Elfarr and his staff at both the Kaufman and Athens locations. Wait time has never been more than 15 minutes past appointment time. The staff has always been very courteous and thorough in regards to my needs.

Wonderful Physician
I really like Dr Elfarr. He thoroughly explains your diagnosis & what treatment he recommends. I trust him, which means a lot due to my other health issues. He takes plenty of time to listen to your questions & answers you & I am very satisfied with his responses. Great Dr. I drive an hr to see him. I will not switch to a Urologist in the town I live... ONLY if he retires.

My mother went to see Dr Elfar with a UTI that was causing bleeding, pain to urinate, and hallucinations. He told her that drinking more water would stop her symptoms! What a joke! Do not use this Dr
