I really enjoyed Dr. Friedman considering this was the first time I met with him about my allergy concerns. Dr Friedman is well knowledged and thorough which is an important factor for me. He explains everything in details so you get an understanding of things you're unfamiliar with. His staff are quite friendly and welcoming. They work attentively and with a sense of urgency to get you in and out as needed in a timely manner. Great office if you're looking for great a physician.

Dr. Friedman made my son feel very comfortable and was so personable. We left feeling so much better about dealing with my son's allergies. I highly recommend Dr. Friedman.
Verified patient
Dr Friedman is very detailed, he spent a lot of time asking me questions about my medical history and explaining his thoughts about the symptoms I have been experiencing. I really appreciate that he took the time to try and understand my circumstances. I have quite a few follow ups for allergy tests in the next couple of weeks. From my first visit he seems very knowledgeable about various allergies and I hope he will be able to diagnose my symptoms so that I find a way to deal with my symptoms. Thank you Dr. Friedman.
Verified patient
Dr. Friedman made my visit one of the best experiences one could have at a doctor's office. He is very friendly and made it easy to explain the issues I'm dealing with. During my consultation, Dr. Friedman asked me many questions to fully understand my needs. The visit felt less like a consultation and more like a conversation between two like-minded individuals. He set up a few follow up appointments for allergy testing and based on my consultation, I would recommend Dr. Friedman to anyone that needs help finding answers to the questions they have.
Verified patient
I was especially happy that he wasn't condescending, as so many doctors are. He also seemed genuinely concerned about my condition. I will be going back for allergy test so we'll see.
He was incredible I need to come back for a few more allergy tests but he was so much fun! His staff was incredibly kind and I loved that he took the time to actually get to know me and what triggers my allergies and asthma! I would recommend him to anyone who has allergies and needs to get support understanding it!
Verified patient
He is the consummate professional.
He is amazing.
He was thorough and very knowledgeable and had a great bedside manner. His office staff could use some customer service lessons. They were fairly curt and unenthusiastic and not very welcoming.
He was patient with me, listened to my whole situation and showed genuine interest and empathy. He then explained everything and laid out the strategy for dealing with my situation. Quite refreshing!
Verified patient
I thought he was amazing, his office staff was great, there was one person late in front of me but I was kept informed by the staff the whole time. He sat down and listened to all of my concerns and made me feel like I had legitimate symptoms. It was so refreshing to ENJOY meeting a doctor. He took plenty of time with me and filled out many of my files himself to take his own notes. He offered me a variety of options and even told me he would advise me in finding other doctors who can help me with my symptoms that are caused by something other than allergies. He had a great outlook and it was really nice that he checked me out himself and verbally told his nurses what appointments I needed rather than just dropping a file.
Verified patient
Fast service.
He is the best allergist anyone can find!
Verified patient
I thought Dr. Friedman was a very professional doctor. He seemed to know very much about all of my issues and was really easy to talk to. This is my first visit to Dr. Friedman, but so far so good!
Dr. Friedman is a great care taker. He's willing to listen and dedicated to figuring out what the problem is. I highly recommend him as a doctor. Very professional staff.
