Doc Friedman was very sweet and swift with the appointment
August 5, 2025Irsa S.Verified patient
Arrived early and they took me right away, which was nice. Nurses were nice and helpful. Felt like the doctor kind of brushed my issues off a bit. He asked me to buy a device to register my heart rate, but didn’t run any tests of any kind and pretty much just dismissed me.
