I drive 3 hours to see Dr. Goldfarb and it is worth every minute. She is a fabulous doctor who I always look forward to seeing. She provided me with EXCELLENT treatment and care, A+ all the way. St. John's is also a wonderful facility, so easy to access and navigate, with very helpful staff. I couldn't be more pleased with my choice to seek care at St. John's.

The provider was attentive, caring, direct and informative, reassuring, and helpful. She verbalized a caring demeanor and also a confidence and helpfulness that made me feel assured I would be getting quality and attentive care. She followed up with me as planned and the staff contacted for a f/u appt.
