Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Untrustworthy
Telehealth
I needed a second prescription called in over the weekend from a sickness already assessed the week prior so I could be well for work Monday-same prescription. He wouldn't do it although my symptoms for Step are exactly the same. Even the nurse who spoke to him seemed frustrated with his decision. What would be the issue of prescribing an antibiotic if it ended up not working...Nothing. However if it did work, I wouldn't be contagious and could continue to work as normal on Monday. No thank you to this doctor at all... I've seen him in person with a family member as well and he lacks the confidence a doctor should have. Seems untrustworthy because he is unsure and nervous to make his own decisions.

I take both my grandparents to Dr. Ferrer and no complaints as of now. He has taken his time to do a comprehensive evaluation to carry out treatment. He reached out to their specialists as well. He was very caring and patient with my 86 & 88 yr old grandparents. I truly appreciate that.

He seemed nice enough when we met the one and only time, but he came across as nervous, which you don't want to see in your doctor. I decided to move on after that first visit. The doctor I have at Scripps Carlsbad is a superstar by comparison. To each his own, I guess.

Less knowledgable than other Doctors I have had. More worried about referring me to specialists.

Very knowledgeable Doctor. He takes his time to listen to his patients, and always explains himself with procedures, the cause and effect, and how certain medications work. I love how he always gives me various treatment options, so I don't feel forced to follow a certain treatment plan. I highly recommend.
