Office and med staff all seem happy to work under Dr Friedman's expertise. Attitudes are unpretentious and comfortable. I'm only 5 days post procedure but followup care has been exceptional. I'll post monthly as evolves.

Then entire staff is wonderful. Friendly, patient, caring, and knowledgeable would be a few words I would use to describe them as a whole. Dr Friedman is an artist of the highest caliber in his craft, I would highly recommend using his services.

Dr. Friedman took all the time I needed to explain to me the process and kept my expectations in check. Just prior to the procedure he was kind enough to give me his personal cell phone number in case I had any concerns or questions prior to the procedure. I felt I was in very capable hands throughout the entire experience. I would definitely recommend Dr. Friedman to anyone.
