Verified patient
Found a great doctor with Dr. Fred. I’ve always been nervous and wary with doctors but it was a good first visit and feel comfortable to make him my primary.
Verified patient
One of the most thorough doctor’s visits I have had in a long time. Nurses were super friendly and helpful when I almost passed out giving blood, and the doctor was kind and asked many questions to help me out.
His beside manner was jittery and rushed, he seemed like he was in a terrible hurry. Maybe he was overbooked for the day. It wasn't a positive experience.
Verified patient

Verified patient
They lost the results of a test they did for me and said I was allergic to cats and dogs - I am not in the slightest. At the end of the appointment he offered to prescribe a medication for my heartburn that he had already prescribed for me.
Verified patient
First visit for an allergic cough. Took forever. They even did a echocardiogram! I had told them I really needed to be out in less than an hour. It took almost 2!
Dr. Fred is very direct, which I appreciate. He was thorough and efficient and I felt comfortable that he was providing the necessary care.
Verified patient
I'm sure Dr. Fred is a good doc...perhaps I caught him on an off day. I have never felt so rushed and unimportant to a doctor. He did not wash his hands before, nor did he wear any gloves when he drew my blood. He didn't really seem to care to want to see why I was there to make his own assessment of my ailment, but rather seemed fine just taking my word for it...im no medical professional by the way. Overall, this visit left me more worried and not comforted in any way. Again, maybe it was an off day.
He's knowledgeable and very helpful.
Verified patient
