Patient Reviews
Aug 24, 2022
I needed a repair of a hernia repair by another doctor that had not gone well. Dr. Friedman listened to my concerns, and answered all of my questions. Made clear that he considered my problem to be very fixable. He is quick but thorough. Not given to wasting time. I had no issue with the time he took to explain my problem, and his proposed solution, to his two young interns. Did an excellent job that I am very satisfied with. I found his office staff to be friendly, helpful, and professional. I would recommend him to anyone.
