I've been a patient of Dr.Fristo for almost 30 years. He is the kindest most understanding Dr. I've ever had. He has always taken care of my medical needs and not a pill pusher.

I would absolutely recommend Dr. Fristo. He is compassionate and professional. I feel very comfortable with him and feel he truly listens to my concerns.

Dr Fristo is genuine, takes all the time his patient wants, makes you feel important, provides options for treatment if you are not sure which way you care to go as well as information to make an informed decision. Dr Fristo is also "real". Conversations are relaxed and friendly. I am never nervous or feel overwhelmed. Even when he has to tell you something you don't want to hear or deal with, it feels as though he is speaking with compassion rather than out of obligation.

Every time I go and see Dr. Fristo, I have a pleasant experience. From the receptionists that check me in to the nurse that takes me back to the room and to Dr. Fristo himself. It's just always a pleasant experience. It's just an overall great experience every time I need to go in and see him for any reason at all.

- Felt rushed
- Did a thorough examine on my throat but wasn't given any medicine
(though it would've helped) - Ended up having to get some throat spray
- Didn't felt like I was being heard
