Anila R Peter Faherty's Online Review Report Card

Both my husband and myself are patients of Dr. Rita Peter- Faherty. We have found her office staff very friendly, helpful and kind. The atmosphere in the office is busy yet very calm. Dr. Faherty clearly explains our health conditions and treatments to us. Her manner has always been compassionate and from the first visit, we feel secure that she is highly competent. We recommend her without reservation.

I agree with rude staff, and that the doctor is abrasive. I saw her once 7 years ago and didn't like her then. Didn't even realize it was the same doctor until she commented that I had been in the office previously. I still find her condescending and rushed. Had to remind the nurse doing my EKG that masks are worn over the nose as well, even with signs everywhere in the office for patients. Receptionist let me stand waiting at the window for almost 5 minutes without any acknowledgement, facing my direction. "I'll be with you in a moment" isn't hard to say. Not impressed with the doctor or staff.

Dr. Flaherty is a wonderful Dr, very comfortable to talk to and her staff is very helpful and friendly. I'm so glad she was referred to me.

DO NOT GO TO THIS DR. She is rude and condescending. She has no bedside manor and does not listen to patient. She leaves doors to examining rooms open so everyone can hear what is going on with other patients. She is rude to her staff and then they are rude to patients. Go to anyone else, she is too full of herself to give good care let alone great care. I'd give negative stars if I could.

Dr. Rita saved my life...twice. She is both caring and forthright...exactly what anyone should want in a gifted, gentle and honest physician. I, with great anxiety due to COVID, had my most recent visit today. The staff was beyond wonderful, kind and helpful. The echo technician was simply fantastic. Thank you all for what you do to help like myself!

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES ALLOW YOUR LOVED ONE TO GO TO THIS OFFICE. This doctor lies about alternate drugs to coumadin. You don't need this, there are alternatives like Eliquis that don't require monitoring. The staff is exceptionally rude and purposely unhelpful and often insulting and callous. No matter how far you have to drive, GO SOMEWHERE ELSE.

I met Dr Faherty 5 years ago during a stress echo test as part of a routine physical my doctor ordered. It was discovered that I developed an aortic aneurysm and had a bicusip valve. Doctor Faherty came into the room and asked if I had a cardiologist. When I told her I did not, she immediately announced she would become my cardiologist. I was petrified when she told me I would need open heart surgery with in the next 5 years. Over the coarse of the past 5 years, Dr Faherty guided me to a soft landing into my open heart surgery which I had 6 weeks ago. I totally summited my trust in her guidance and did everything I needed to do to get my body and mind prepared for the procedure. I am forever grateful to Dr Rita Faherty and would recommend her to anyone in need of a cardiologist. Her confidence & direction provided me with a stress free experience. Thank you Dr Faherty!

Simple way to put it is I always feel better coming out then going in. For me thats what it's all about. Dr. Faherty is attentive and listens to my concerns. 5 Star for me

I love Dr. Faherty, she truly cares and is a good listener I have complete confidence in her

I have been seeing Dr. Faherty for several years and I am still alive to write this review, that has got to mean something. People reviewing here complain about the wait time, and at the same time complain that the Doctor and staff are not personable. These people are here to do a job, not be your friend, so I get it if they are tired of listening to everyone complaining about unrelated issues. If I am waiting for an hour, it is likely because the patients won't shut up or the doctor has an emergency. That said, I chit chat a lot too and everyone there has never been anything less than exceptionally nice to me. They give me the meds I need, check they are working right every 6 months, and offer other options for treatment if I need more aggressive care in the future. Dr. Faherty did scare the freakin' heck out of me once about the consequences of continuing drinking alcohol and the likeliness of a stroke. Sober and no caffeine for 14 months now! 5 Stars!
