If
you
want
a
caring
provider
that
runs
an
efficient
practice,
keep
looking.
Dr.
Farber
seemed
nice
enough
at
my
initial
consultation;
however,
that
is
the
only
positive
comment
I
have
for
Dr.
Farber.
When
I
reached
out
with
follow-up
questions,
Dr.
Farber
never
took
the
time
to
respond.
Instead,
he
delegated
this
to
various
staff
members.
This
seemed
acceptable
at
first,
but
one
question
turned
into
several
because
I
was
receiving
piecemeal
answers
(no
fault
of
the
staff
who
always
did
their
best
to
help).
I
appreciate
a
physician’s
busy
schedule
and
need
to
delegate,
but
Dr.
Farber’s
approach
to
never
call
a
patient
is
inefficient
and
disrespectful.
It
was
also
a
shock
when
my
pharmacist
flagged
Dr.
Farber’s
prescription
because
it
belonged
in
a
class
that
I
can’t
take
due
to
a
prior
allergic
reaction.
My
negative
opinion
of
Dr.
Farber
was
reinforced
when
I
asked
for
next
steps
in
my
diagnosis/treatment.
Dr.
Farber
insisted
I
make
an
appointment
to
see
him
in
the
office
for
a
10-minute
conversation.
First,
Dr.
Farber’s
practice
does
not
offer
a
telemedicine
option.
This
is
unheard
of
especially
after
COVID.
I
don’t
expect
any
physician
to
work
for
free,
but
even
pre-COVID
and
before
telemedicine
became
best
practice,
I
never
had
a
doctor
insist
on
a
visit
when
a
phone
call
would
suffice.
Second,
with
a
spike
in
COVID
cases,
not
to
mention
the
fact
that
masks
are
mandated
in
Dr.
Farber’s
office,
it
is
disturbing
that
Dr.
Farber
requests
a
patient
put
themselves
at
risk
when
a
phone
call
is
a
simple
alternative.
This
is
further
exacerbated
because
Dr.
Farber
knows
I
have
a
compromised
immune
system
from
a
prior
illness.
