I highly recommend Dr. Farzan as an excellent gynecologic physician and surgeon. He is caring, honest, and thoughtful in his recommendations. One of the smartest doctors I have ever had. I live 4-5 hours away from him but keep my appointments on a regular basis - and plan to continue.

I had several problems with the office staff, not calling in my prescriptions on one visit, failure to respond to my phone calls , failure to have a nurse in the room during a pelvic exam, and not notifying me when Dr Farzan changed his ONLY day in the office from Tuesday to Wednesday. I had an appointment that was set up 6 months prior for a Tuesday and when I called on the Monday morning before my appointment to confirm I was told my appointment was changed to Wednesday, I explained I had another appointment for a biopsy and could not come Wednesday, was told calls were made 2 months prior to change days. I said I'd gotten no call and was basically called a liar even though nothing showed on my caller ID nor message left. When I said they needed better communication with patients I was told to find another provider. I will gladly do that, Farzans office is not very clean and I consider dirty socks covering stirrups on exam tables very unprofessional especially during covid 19!

I met Dr. Farzan August 17, 2021 at BSA, Amarillo, TX. I was told wjile in ER that I was not having an appendix problem but I had a "Mass" on my lower right side and was referred to Dr. Farzan. He explained all the tests and described fully that the surgery could be done laproscopically unless something unexpected came up. I would refer Dr. Farzan to any woman who needed his expertise. My surgery was successful and benign

Dr. Farzan is a measured, thoughtful, and kind doctor. He is incredibly knowledgeable and will take as much time as you need to explain your condition and the best possible treatment plan. He is very warm and congenial, sometimes a rarity when you are navigating a cancer diagnosis. I am 2 years out from my last treatment and asked to be kept in his care rather than returning to my previous OBGYN. I trust Dr. Farzan and feel like I am receiving better, more thorough care.

Dr. Farzan and his staff are very professional and kind mannered. He made me feel very comfortable and explained everything in great detail to me and my family and never made me feel rushed at visits and I always left feeling confident of his abilities though out my visits, surgery, and follow up's. His staff, especially Samantha, are just as kind, patient, and understanding to your needs. If you have questions they take thier time to explain everything. Such a great medical staff and office.

Office not nearly the quality as my beloved Dr Benny Phillips. Nurse ( I guess as no intro was given) was nice as was Dr. However, my prescription wasn't called, electronically submitted, etc for two days after I drove over 300 miles to see Dr Farzan. This is a negative.
