I've been seeing Dr Fristo since 2014 and I continue to be very happy with the care provided. He and his staff always make time to answer my questions and explain treatments thoroughly. The office is clean and friendly, and can typically get me in quickly to see the Dr.

My doctor of over twenty years closed his practice and I've been searching every year for a new doctor I like. I finally found one I like in Doctor Fristo. I was able to make an appointment quickly and easily. His staff is very nice and professional. The office is immaculately clean and modern. They got me in right away. Doctor Fristo was very easy to talk to and very respectful. I highly recommend him and this doctor's office.

Dr Fristo has been our FAMILY doctor for over 20 years. I am more comfortable taking my children to him than I am a pediatrition. He is very thorough and never forgets your name or face.
