They didn’t call my prescription in, so I was itchy all night.
The dr didn’t seem sure about where to biopsy my skin.

I've been seeing Dr. David Friedman for over five years now, and I can honestly say I've never been disappointed. The entire staff is always welcoming and professional, making each visit as comfortable as possible.
Dr. Friedman is consistently straightforward and honest, which I really appreciate. He always takes the time to walk me through each procedure, explaining what he’s doing and why. I find it extremely helpful that he educates me during the process, rather than just rushing through the appointment. It makes a big difference to feel informed and involved in my own care.
Overall, I highly recommend Dr. Friedman and his team. They provide excellent care and make every visit a positive experience.
