09/01/2021

Informative

08/25/2021

Doctor jumps to conclusions about diagnosis and treatment without hearing all of the information I had available. She also seems to spend more time on the laptop than face to face with the patient. Too impersonal.

06/08/2021

Dr. Friedrich is wonderful, professional and caring.

06/08/2021

The doctor I saw was impatient, irritable, disorganized, peremptory. She hadn't looked at tests I'd gotten from another doctor or at notes from a doctor to whom she had referred me. She suggested a referral to another doctor, but failed to give it to me.

04/25/2021

My provider is very good. I do think she could spend a bit more time talking to the patient to learn about their life in order for a better understanding to help treat the person rather than the issue.

04/23/2021

Dr. Friedrich happens to be the best doctor I have had the pleasure to call my physician, ever.

I was referred to Dr. Freidrich by one of her patients, a provider who came to my home after my mastectomy some time ago. I kept her name and changed doctors when it appeared that my much-loved doctor was on the verge of retirement. I would recommend Dr. Freidrich.
