She discovered that I have kidney disease for which I am now getting treated. When I had frozen shoulder she referred me to an excellent orthopaedist. I trust her implicitly.

They act like you are interrupting their day, by having an appointment. I have contemplated leaving the practice due to this reason for the last few years, but didn't want to bother finding another good doctor. Today I called to schedule a follow up and they informed me that they had terminated me from the practice. I inquired as to why this occurred in disbelief. They informed me that it was because I had a balance from my last visit (which was 2-3 months ago) for $50. I never even received a phone call from them. WOW! I should have gone with my gut a long time ago and left the practice years ago! have been a patient at least two to three times as long. I am in the service/retail industry and my boss would have fired me within a week if I was this cold and ignorant to our customers. I'm a dumb guy so I guess I stuck with what worked. My Dr. went congerie and now I have to join a "country club" to get the "better level of health care" as described on the post card we were all sent. (myself and the rest of my family) That's why I was there in the first place. (Dumb me). I am so tired of having to ask or do other people to do their job and have to clock out during the day to do so. I too agree so much with Yvette M.

Maybe you treat your husband and family this way but it don't fly here in my book ladies. There is an app for that. It's called "respect". If you value your health or unless you can afford better "attentive care" I'd look for someone that still has heart and soul for the health care industry rather then retiring out. Time to find someone that cares, is educated on later technology and is involved in more of the later treatment that are available. My life depends on it.

Date of visit: September 11, 2025…read more I brought my friend here for a colonoscopy and while I wasn't the patient, it was an overall good experience for me as his transport and emergency contact. The staff were communicative and friendly, letting me know when he was ready and sharing updates along the way when he took extra time to come out of the twilight sleep. The office is a bit hard to find, tucked back in an office park where all of the buildings look the same and we found the patient pick up parking a lot easier than the drop off parking! The area for pick up can be a bit tight, so be mindful that you aren't blocking anyone's parking spot while you're waiting for your patient. The waiting room area seemed a bit tired and ready for a refresh, but otherwise it was a positive experience for me--which is probably easier to say since they weren't sticking anything inside me! Pro tip: Head down the street to Pepper Park Coffee while you wait!

A nurse attending to my husband was wildly inappropriate with the way she spoke to him and stated she did not know and was never told he was on a pain patch and proceeded to say, "oh gosh that's not ok, he could die" it alarmed me. I called to discuss this with the charge nurse multiple times and was told I'd be called back and no one called me back. I took my complaint to patient relations and they "investigated" the situation and I was sent back a gaslighting letter telling me that everyone knew he was on a pain patch and I should've communicated my concerns to the charge nurse first. just ridiculous. Shame on this place.

This doctors office is located right in front of Good Shepard Hospital in Barrington, IL. The waiting room here is even nice. They have a bunch of comfortable leather chairs to relax in while you wait & the office staff is very kind & friendly & will help you with your insurance & paperwork if need be. When you go into the room to see the doctor you can see a slew of awards & degrees that doctor Farah has earned over the years. It puts into perspective just how accredited & knowledgeable that doctor Farah is. Overall this is a five star practice all around. Doctor Farah has not only taken good care of me but he has made me feel like a friend & I am glad that I found him & his practice. I high recommend this doctor to anyone in the Barrington area.

When asked if she had any studies she could cite about the efficacy of these products, she stated that she "does her own studies on her patients."

Couldn't believe but these words came out, make sure you see me in a week or I won't get paid! I couldn't drive in a week I just had a huge surgery.

No one ever expected me to be able to be where I'm at today (working full-time +) I guess if the medical odds were to happen as they should've, I wouldn't be here to tell you all about what an awesome, dedicated surgeon Dr. Wool is. I can't thank that man enough for what he did for me a year ago (August 5th 2014). I'm sure my situation surprised him quite a bit, because a small bowel volvulus is a very rare condition, that there hasn't been a whole ton of research done on here in the U.S. I guess when the day is done, there are just so many wonderful things I could have to say about Dr. Wool that I would probably run out of space by the time I finished. I'm known to write reviews that are honest and truthful and I just can't say enough good things about him. Please, if you are in a situation where you can have a planned surgery, go see Dr. Wool at Barrington Surgeons and just mention my name (Michael Minch) and Dr. Wool will know EXACTLY who I am and what that man did for me. A few months ago, I ended up with two incisional hernias, for which he repaired for me using Bio-A and it's been great. The scars will likely never completely disappear from what originally happened last August, but it's better than the alternative! (Being 6 ft under) We all have someone in our lives that impact us in a special way that we will never forget and I will never forget what he did for me. There's really nothing greater than someone giving you a second chance at life. As my family and friends have said to me, "your job here is not done" Thx again Dr. Wool! Michael Minch

After deciding to just go with the removal, he then said he would do it for $200. I still politely declined and that's when he turned sour. He got very short and I wasn't even numbed when he went to cut into my arm, and it was a painful experience. He had me sign the paper and that was it.
