I had a great experience during my recent visit with this doctor and would absolutely recommend him. The appointment was extremely informative and insightful. What stood out most was his honesty—unlike many others, he didn’t come across as pharmaceutical-driven. He stayed true to his values, which aligned closely with mine, and that gave me a lot of trust in his approach. I’m definitely making him my primary doctor moving forward.

October 15, 2024Robinson Q.Verified patient
Dr. Friedman was very courteous, patient, and a good listener. I didn't feel rushed when speaking with him. He explained everything with great clarity and made sure that I understood before I left. He made sure to point out his contact information in case I had any questions later. It was really refreshing to speak to a physician that showed genuine attentiveness. And his staff was equally great! Definitely recommend!

December 15, 2020Kapil D.Verified patient
One of the best doctor appts I have had in a while. His office was respectful of my scheduled appt time which is rare these days. Dr. Fridman was thorough, courteous and very knowledgeable on my medical concerns. He really eased my mind by addressing all of my questions. At no point did I feel rushed out of his office. He explained diagnosis then broke it down in non-medical terms so I could easily understand which I really appreciated. He is also easily accessible via messaging system which is a plus. I highly recommend Dr. Fridman.

This was my initial visit to a cardiologist and I was nervous because I was diagnosed with Afib. He was patient and answered all my questions. He gave me great news that everything is treatable and put me at ease. We had a consultation with one of his colleagues that performs procedures for this arrhythmia and we all came to an agreement on my treatment plan. Very thorough. Recommend him highly!
