Patient Reviews
Apr 11, 2020
When I developed severe pain in my shoulder, my primary doctor recommended Dr. Farmer as an expert in the matter. After discussing my symptoms with Dr. Farmer, he thought I’d injured my rotator cuff. Right there at my first appt, he injected steroids into the area of pain. I left feeling better than I had in months. The pain, however, has returned—Dr. Farmer said it might. I am about to make my second appt, because of the faith i gained during that long appt (and the many pain-free months that followed). Dr. Farmer, I’m sure, can take me the next step down the road to a permanent solution. Medicine isn’t perfect, but this doctor is excellent: He listens well, is efficient but doesn’t rush, is smart, and involves the patient in decisions. I don’t know what more I could ask of a medical professional. Dr. Farmer is on my permanent list of best doctors in the Gainesville area.
