Dr. Benedict John Farino, MD

Dr. Farino, is not only knowledgeable but thoughtful. Perhaps the quality I love the most about him is he never talks down to you. He listens and explains things and never leaves you hanging. If he says he's going to do something, he does it. I truly appreciate how he uses technology effectively and efficiently. he is the best doctor I have ever had.

I was a patient of Dr. Farino for about 13 years and in that time he treated me for a number of medical issues. The biggest issue that I had that previous Doctors did not discover was a huge hole in my heart. Dr. Farino was the only one who was able to notice the abnormal loud heartbeat and connected me to another outstanding Dr. Had he not discovered the problem, I would not be here today. There are other issues that Dr. Farino discovered, but that one is the one I will share. He is patient, caring and takes his time to examine and explain options to you. I had t o move to the West to care for elderly family members and truly miss his down to earth, yet professional manner. Nothing but respect for the man! -- T. Hampton

Dr. Farino's practice has become corporate-oriented due to the realities of the world today. I'm sure he has "financial goals" set by the "owners" of the group. This cuts into quality of care; waiting time has become way too long (have to see too many patients in a day) and there is no followup. A PA has been hired so you don't always see Dr. Farino but you don't know that when you book an appointment. On demand appointments are nearly impossible to get because of overbooking.
