I’ve never had to have Dr. Farra in the 4-5 years of visiting this office. I came in for a very painful abscess that had gotten infected - I couldn’t walk, sit, even using the restroom was painful. To “save you the pain” accordingShow more to his nurse he sent me home with antibiotics. He or the nurse didn’t even bother to read my chart to notice I’m allergic to the original antibiotic he wanted to send me. Furthermore, the antibiotics weren’t sent in to the pharmacy when the nurse said they’d be ready before 5. I called the office next morning several times since opening and “he is the only one with access to that file”. The midwives here are great but honestly unless you’re pregnant they just write you off, my guess because you’re not 9+ months of guaranteed appointments. It really was a waste of my copay.
I saw the doctor for a total of 3 minutes and all he did was ask me if I had any questions. I’m a first time mom and expected him to give me information about what’s normal at this stage of my pregnancy. The provider I saw was alsShow moreo not the one that I made the appointment with, they switched my appointment without letting me know.

In 1991, Dr. Farra graduated from medical school at Damascus University in Damascus, Syria. He always had a passion for obstetrics and gynecology and was inspired by his late father, who worked as an obstetrician, to follow the same career.

He then pursued an OB/GYN residency at the Greater Baltimore Medical Center, also in Baltimore, which he finished in 1998. Dr. Farra served as a chief resident during his last year of residency and obtained his board certification in OB/GYN in 2000.
During his 23 years of medical experience, Dr. Farra has worked with other OB/GYNs, midwives, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and other medical specialists. He also served on multiple medical committees at the local hospital and was chief of staff for a couple of years. Dr. Farra served on the credentials committee and the outpatient Surgical Center executive committee in town.
When away from the office, Dr. Farra enjoys gardening, golfing, fishing, and cooking. He is excited to start a new career chapter and looks forward to being part of the Westover Hills Women's Health team.

I don’t feel like my concerns were addressed. He just wanted to do want he wanted and didn’t listen to what I wanted.
I saw the doctor for a total of 3 minutes and all he did was ask me if I had any questions. I’m a first time mom and expected him to give me information about what’s normal at this stage of my pregnancy. The provider I saw was also not the one that I made the appointment with, they switched my appointment without letting me know.
Great bedside manner, listened
Great experience, answered all my questions. Great staff
