  • Dr. Fried was really good with us during the visit, the appointment was not rushed, took time to listen and understand the issues, found time to explain the results and medication with us. Our 5-year-old really liked Dr. Fried. Even after the visit, when we needed to follow up with the Pharmacy Benefits Provider, the Dr. Fried spent 40 minutes with them over phone for getting us the medication, which was above and beyond our expectations. Overall, we are glad that we got Dr. Fried as our child's Doctor!

  • Dr. Fried was outstanding. Not only did he listen and answer our concerns, he was great at listening and processing what we were saying and then typing at the same time which I found pretty amazing. He was very thorough in the explanations and patient with our questions. We traveled a bit for this appointment but was so glad we got to meet with Dr. Fried. It was well worth it!!
