Dr. Friberg is a gift from God. After 5 unsuccessful IVF attempts with another doctor (at what was considered a globally prestigious clinic), I sought a second opinion with Dr. Friberg. He said it would be worth to consider another try. Not only did I become pregnant and give birth to healthy baby, I have 3 frozen embryos. Dr. F provided me with first rate care and always took the time to explain things. How often do you call the doctor and actually get to speak with him? After I became pregnant, he continued to treat me for the first 12 weeks. This is unheard of in the IVF world. The care and attention that I received was amazing. Dr. F is much smarter than the average bear and his knowledge is what allowed me to conceive (and of course prayers). I am eternally grateful for what Dr. F has done for us.

I found this doctor on BCBS web-site and when i came to the office it was very nice and lady at front desk was very friendly.Then his assistant came back and this girl got attitude, she is very rude with you on phone, she is not trying to be helpful at all. She said to me that if i want to get help I have to talk nice with her. How would you like to go to the office like that??? You will be having serious problem and she would not return your phone calls for more then 3 days!!! my recommendation do not go this office ever!

This doctor is wise. He has many years of experience and it shows. Dr. Jan Friberg and his staff take very good care of their patients. They treat you like one of the family. They have genuine care and concern which is very difficult to find these days. Finding him was like striking gold.

Dr Friberg took care of me during my entire pregnancy,which started as high risk. He was the most caring, efficent and all around BEST Dr I have ever seen. I will be staying at his practice until he retires!! He is THAT good. Very helpful, informative and cares deeply for his patients.

This doctor is the best. I have seen many Reproductive Endocrinologists and no one has given me the personalized care and treatment that this doctor has. I saw the doctor directly at every visit, not just an ultrasound tech or a nurse. He spent time to answer every question I had until I was completely comfortable with all of the questions about my treatment. Most importantly of all, we were successful!He is a great doctor and I would recommend him to anyone.
