Well respected
Dr. Farrell is a truly caring physician. He listens to my concerns and gives thoughtful advice and recommendations when needed. I've taken my Mom to him well over 20 years ago and he treated her with dignity and respect. My husband also was his patient and myself also. Great doctor and kind, compassionate person.

He's the Best
I have known Dr Farrell for over 40 years as both my doctor and a peer. He is the kindest, most compassionate, knowledgeable and professional MD that I am lucky enough to know and have as a cardiologist. He listens carefully, never rushes out of the appointment, and his gut instincts are spot on. His office staff are equally as friendly and efficient.

Dr. Farrell is Excellent!
Farrell is knowledgeable, personable, respectful, organized, and accessible. When my diagnosis required it, he referred me to the top New England expert on hypertrophy, at Tufts in Boston. I and my wife, who accompanies me to each of my cardiology appointments, would highly recommend Dr. William Farrell to you and your family.

Dr Farrell, his office staff, his medical assistant and RN are all extremely professional, efficient and personable. It really is a joy to visit and have this great team advise me on my cardiac needs. Top notch in every respect, especially their communications with patients and always on time appointments. Dr Farrell himself is very thorough, never rushed, and extremely comfortable to talk with.

Very likely
I have been seeing Dr. Farrell for almost ten years for annual checkups following double bypass surgery. Dr. Farrell is the one who I went to on the advice of my GP. After an exam and tests Dr. Farrell sent me directly to the hospital where I underwent surgery which without I may not be here today. He is a wonderful, kind doctor.
