Lake Ridge Internal Medicine: B. Farah, MD

Very nice and soft spoken Dr. All his nurses are sweet and helpful. Very good place.

Doctor Farah has been taking care of my parents for the last two years and we are so thankful and pleased. During the pandemic he has been providing them with medical care through telemedicine. Last week they went into the office and we felt so good about all the safety and sanitation procedures they follow! Ruth was so wonderful and did a great job while taking their blood samples. Also nurse M behind the desk welcomed us with a beautiful smile.
We all recommend this office.

Staff is excellent at giving shots or taking blood. In my experience they’ve been able to find a vein, get blood quickly, efficiently, and as painless as possible. Leaving four stars due to once being recommended a specialist that only accepted minors. All staff is very professional, accepting, and kind.

I became a patient of Dr. Farah a few month ago. I had been at the same practice for years where they couldn't keep a doctor. Ended up seeing a nurse practitioner at the old office who diagnosed swelling and redness just above my ankle as fluid retention. Went to my podiatrist who did a sonogram and blood work which showed I had cellulitis. Blood tests also revealed diabetes. He referred me to Dr. Farah. I have had the greatest care from Dr. Farah. My sugar went down from 6.2 to 5.9 which has me being pre-diabetic. I now feel better than I have in years. I was so impressed by Dr. Farah's care that I had my husband become a patient also. Dr. Farah is professional and very thorough. The office staff is very professional also and very friendly. I know that my husband and I are in good hands. Thank you Dr. Farah.

Dr. Farah has been my doctor for the past 15+ years since I retired from the Army. I hated to leave him for another doctor but he refused to move to Wisconsin where I recently retired. Through all those years, he was always professional, thoroughly reviewed my past and recent medical history, asked me how I was feeling . . . all those things that you would expect from your doctor. Then he provided personal opinion, options available for whatever reason I was seeing him. When I needed to see other specialists, I was referred within 24 hours and often had a referral appointment within a week.

I never found myself sitting in the waiting room for more than a few minutes later than any scheduled appointment. And Dr. Farah's staff was always professional, competent and courteous. I will also say that his phlebotomist is outstanding. Her ability to take blood without my feeling any pain is commendable.

He is NOT a funny doctor, so if that is what you are looking for - try elsewhere. He has a dry sense of humor (like Bob Newhart).
