Patient Reviews
Nov 16, 2020
I cannot say enough good about Dr. Frey. He was my Trauma Doc for an unfortunate incident I had, falling from a ladder. I was hospitalized for 6 days. He personally follows up with his patients, he doesn't rely on the 'trauma team' to do his follow-ups. His NP is Jill (?), also super nice. Fantastic bedside manner! Thoughtful, never rushing you when you ask questions, etc. BTW, this was at Sharp Memorial Hospital. I had never had emergency treatment and had never been hospitalized. From Dr. Frey to the RN's in the Trauma wing to the food to the housekeeping, EVERYONE and I mean everyone was 'bend over backward' nice. I will be following up with a letter to Sharp's CEO Chris Howard conveying the above.
