Dr. Farrell is very knowledgeable, personable, and caring. He goes above and beyond. I highly recommend him.
I was referred to Dr. Farrell by an acquaintance after he saw me dragging my leg and shuffling when I walked. I was also having difficulty with vertigo. I made an appointment with Dr. Farrell and he assessed me and decided we would get the vertigo (crystal/s in my ear) under control and within two appointments my vertigo was better. He advised me I would need an updated MRI before he could look at working on my back as he thought I likely needed a surgical solution. At the time I was also waiting for a knee replacement and had been declined for back surgery. Dr. Farrell wrote my family doctor about obtaining a current MRI and she arranged for one, which showed an increase in damage to my lower spine.
After the results of my new MRI I spoke to my family doctor and she submitted an additional letter to the surgeon who agreed to surgery and put me on the surgical wait list. I had surgery on my back on Oct 12, 2023 and I can now walk without any aids or pain.
Without Dr. Farrell's time and effort I do not think I would have had back surgery. The improvement that the surgery has made in my life is considerable and I am very grateful to Dr. Farrell
