Patient Reviews
Aug 30, 2020
No I would not recommend Dr. Farmer and that is based on the results after my surgery and a total change in my initial impression of him. When I first met Dr. Farmer he was extremely nice, knowledgeable and felt I would be in good hands. A little over a year ago he preformed a lumber discectomy on me: Several months after my post-op visit I went back to see him as I was still in considerable pain. He had me have another MRI taken which he got the results almost immediately. After the MRI I had an appointment to see him in his office. After looking at them I will now quote what his response was: “There is nothing else I can do for you” From my initial impression of him I was in total shock with his response. He offered no other options and I felt he was totally unsympathetic to the pain I was still in. It had been approximately 15 months since my surgery and I am in the same pain as I was prior to my surgery,
