Patient Experience Reviews
Very Pleasant, was nice to meet the Dr.
Dr. Farah is fabulous. Very smart, attentive, always explains things, always asks questions, never condescending, and seems to care.
Dr. Farrah and his team have been wonderful to work with.
Yes, Dr. Farren was very helpful about my care and my middle finger on my right hand where I used a slicer and nearly went almost through the bone or pretty darn close to it then he recommended me to go see the wound center, which I did one time because the lady across the street she is a RN nurse and she handles this all the time with Patient in like trauma center and also to the ER at St. John's Westshire hospital to the wound center all the same stuff that My Neighbor Across The Street has all those credentials for me just like I can't afford every time I go $35 except for Dr. Green I get that for free but other than that Great great job Dr. Farren

Dr farah Yes?Absolutely.Amazing as a health care provider myself to sit and talk with him as a new patient.Establishing service was the best experience ever twenty five out of. Amazing!
I saw this doctor because my regular doctor wasn't available. Dr Farrah was excellent and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him. He offered solutions and ordered appropriate X-rays.
This was my first appointment with Dr Paul Farrah. He seems really good and as time goes on, we will see if it's a good fit. He is getting me on track to a healthier life. He has already found a few issues and has helped me get the appts I need. He is very responsive. I appreciate everything so far.
Dr. Farah is a very good doctor. He is very professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. I appreciate Dr. Farah taking his time to listen and to ask if I have any health concerns. I trust Dr. Farah's professional opinions and approach for my health and care. I highly recommend him.
The doctor and MA are awesome. Very thorough and respectful. I am a new patient to this practice and I have received better care here in the short time I've been a past than I did at my last providers office over the last 5 years. I don't feel like they are just collecting money but care about helping me.

Great doctor and staff
Dr. Farren was excellent ***. He took care of me and they're both great doctors so I give them the highest of recognition and the highest of caring and highest of explaining what is or what isn't my cause and you're just great doctors really know their business about the medical field and I'm very happy with that so very much, all good
Dr. Farrah is my new primary care Dr. He's very nice and caring and I'm really comfortable going to him so far. He's prepared and asks the right questions. He just did my physical and messaged me on a Sunday (my appt was Thursday) to let me know how my test results came out. The few times I have messaged him, he has answered me within 24 hours. He's a very good doctor and I'm glad I found him.
Dr. Farrah was courteous, genuinely interested and showed concern about my health issues. I felt that he was competent, knowledgeable, and thorough. I have referred my son to him to establish care.

This was my first visit w/Dr. Farah as I was looking for a new primary care dr. He was very nice and I'm glad I was able to meet w/him. I will continue w/him as my primary care dr.

This meeting was a new patient visit to meet with the doctor before my annual physical this upcoming ***. Several times during the meeting, he refered to something he read while reviewing my chart. I felt confident about Dr. Farrah's knowledge and understanding about my medical history, current medical concerns and it was evident that he was not rushed or distracted during our visit. He sat as we spoke, looked directly at me during our conversation and responded to my questions thouroghly. I am confident in my choice to have Dr. Farrah as my primary physician and am confident in his knowledge, experience and approachable manner to provide me with excellent medical care.
I like this doctor because he took his time and didn't rush me with my questions, he explained what he was going to do. I have already recommend him to my family and friends.
All good
This was the initial visit for my *** father after having just moved up from Florida. Dr. Farah, the nurse and the staff were all excellent.
Dr. Farah was unable to address my issue - which was very confusing to understand. He did make a referral for further specific examination with a specialist.

Industry Relationships
University Hospitals is committed to transparency in our interactions with industry partners, such as pharmaceutical, biotech, or medical device companies. At UH, we disclose practitioner and their family members’ ownership and intellectual property rights that are or in the process of being commercialized. In addition, we disclose payments to employed practitioners of $5,000 or more from companies with which the practitioners interact as part of their professional activities. These practitioner-industry relationships assist in developing new drugs, devices and therapies and in providing medical education aimed at improving quality of care and enhancing clinical outcomes. At the same time, UH understands that these relationships may create a conflict of interest. In providing this information, UH desires to assist patients in talking with their practitioners about industry relationships and how those relationships may impact their medical care.
UH practitioners seek advance approval for certain new industry relationships. In addition, practitioners report their industry relationships and activities, as well as those of their immediate family members, to the UH Office of Outside Interests annually. We review these reports and implement management plans, as appropriate, to address conflicts of interest that may arise in connection with medical research, clinical care and purchasing decisions.
