Dr. Valerie Alison Fritsch, MD

It was great speaking to her. And she made sure I was comfortable while speaking my concerns.

She was very friendly and kind, I didn’t have to wait long to see her.

Dr. Fritsch is a masterful surgeon. Her care of was beyond superb!

We met Dr Fritsch during a emergency for our son who broke his jaw in two places, who is a student at South Carolina. Being a plane ride away we spoke to her by phone and she immediately made us feel secure in her knowledge and abilities. She connected with my son with the time she spent with him explaining in detail what she needed to do and made him feel safe until we arrived. We had 24 hour access to her for any questions while healing, which helped with all the frustration and exhaustion in any situation. It is very obvious once you meet her that this was her calling, and it shows in everything she says and does. Dr. Fritsch is a phenomenal doctor! You don’t find people like her that often.

I met Dr Fritsch while accompanying my roommate to her appointments. I was impressed enough to change my current ENT to make an appointment with Dr Fritsch. On my visit, I experienced a fantastic caring, concerned and compassionate physician. She took all the time I needed and was not rushing to get to her next patient. She even offered to allow me to watch my endoscopy procedure on the video equipment. Then she explained to me what anatomical structures and her observations of their status. She gave encouragement (you're doing great) when the procedure got slightly uncomfortable. She explained her reasons for wanting an additional test (CT Scan). I would not hesitate to refer others to seek her as their ENT physician. I will not see another ENT unless she requests a consultation. I trust her implicitly with my health care.

I met Dr Fritsch when accompanying my roommate to her appointments. She took all the time you needed to give her info on my symptoms and concerns. She never seemed rushed to get to her next patient. Her bedside manner is excellent...caring, compassionate, concerned. At my first appointment she even asked if I wanted to watch the endoscopy on the video equipment and took the time to Identify the anatomical structures she was seeing and her observations. She continued to give encouragement as the procedure became slightly uncomfortable ("you're doing great"). She explained her reasons for an additional test (CT Scan). I would give her a rating of 10 stars out of 10 if the scale went that high. I would have no hesitation in referring others to see her. I categorically not see another ENT unless she thought it necessary.

Valarie is a great doctor. She has a great bedside manner. She really cares about her patients. She has a wonderful personality'. Having had her and experiencing MUSC and her Mentor Dr Lentsch I can see where she gets her expertise. I would not want another doctor for my ENT needs. I also plan too get a sleep study done by her. She is truly amazing. She deserves way more then 5stars.
