Dr. Farkas is extremely thorough. She explains everything so it is easy to understand. She gives her recommendation, but does not pressure you to pick one treatment over the other. She did not rush through the appointment and spent a good amount of time with me. I found her to be kind and caring. I highly recommend her.

Not the best attitude. A little proud and critical of other surgeons. One of her nurses is also not very friendly too. It feels like the whole office has a chip on their shoulder or something. Front desk staff not very well-informed. Small waiting room. The whole experience was not very pleasant. Not recommended.

For any woman in the situation I found myself I would highly recommend Dr. Farkas.
She was very through in explaining everything and did it in a way anyone could understand. She didn't explain just in medical terms . She was not in a hurry . She was very polite and made sure I understood everything. I definently would see her again if anything should turn up again .

Dr.Farkas is rude and attempts to be intimidating. She does NOT care about want her patients want but more of how much money she can make $ off of you. Her primary goal is to force you into choosing what benefits her. I wouldn’t Suggest anyone go see her! I can’t even give her a 1 Star, I never fill these out. I’ve been a nurse for over 26 years in Rochester.

Was referred by my gynecologist for breast lump, so made appointment with Dr. Farkas. Had to wait a month, but, on day of appointment, she was a no show, with no prior notification, substituting a Physician's Assistant to "cover" for her. Not good enough! Staff should have called to notify me. Now I'm waiting another month for a make-up appointment, all while my breast lump continues to grow. This doctor is not recommended.
