I have been seeing Dr Friedman for over 5 years. My primary care physician asked who I was seeing and commented that Dr Friedman was very good. I have been happy with my interactions.

Have been a Colonoscopy patient for over 10 years and she also treated my wife plus treated my elderly mother for Diverticulitis. Highly experienced and knowledgeable and explains things carefully. I would not go to any other doctor for a Colonoscopy or other "digestive" issues.

I am considering cancelling a Sept. 4 colonoscopy after seeing (only) a NP in May. I NEVER saw Dr. Friedman. I do not want someone I've never seen before doing a colonoscopy on me!

I had a horrible experience with Dr. Friedman. After an Endoscopy, she misdiagnoised me with a life altering condition and prescribed a very dangerous medicine, all this in a 2 minute conversation. Said to follow up with her in 6 weeks. Went for a second opinion and was told to disregard everything she told me and also indicated they never prescribe the medicine she recommended. This is a great lesson to obtain second opinions as there are many incompenent doctors like Alice Friedman.

I never got to see her. No response to the on-line request for an appointment. When I made one over the phone, I showed up at the designated time and date only to be told that they didn't have me down for it and that it would be some weeks before I could get in to see the doctor. Mistakes of this kind make me wary of the capacity of a practice!

Dr. Friedman treated me for Hep several years ago. The treatment involved me injecting myself once per week, and taking a pill regimen daily. At the end of the year's protocol, there was still some of the virus in my blood. Dr. Friedman immediately suggested I get on a newly approved protocol with different drugs. At the end of this second year, I was completely clear of the virus. Had she not suggested this, I could have gone back to a full-blown case of Hep C.
