Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Exceptional Care & Expertise
I am incredibly grateful to Dr. Frisch for his exceptional care and expertise. He performed both my shoulder and knee replacements with remarkable skill, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the results. Throughout the process, Dr. Frisch took the time to address all my questions and concerns, making me feel fully supported and informed. His commitment to my recovery didn’t stop at surgery – he has been a great resource in guiding me through my physical therapy needs. I highly recommend Dr. Frisch to anyone seeking top-notch surgical care and a compassionate, attentive physician.

I seen Dr Frisch after months of looking for a Dr to do my hip replacement and had my hip replaced 5 days later. I wish I would of found this Dr months ago. He is truly a godsend. Him and his staff answered all my questions in a timely matter and were a pleasure to work with. Do not hesitate to call this Dr at all.

I was refered to Dr Frisch by my primary for hip pain. On my first visit an xray was taken right there and then showing that a hip replacement was needed. He explained the procedure in layman terms with props. I decided to go ahead with the surgery which occured 6 weeks ago and I will state the man is amazingly gifted. I have minimal scarring and I am almost pain free. I am riding my bike and I am able to walk without having to use every availale object as a crutch. Thank you for being a dedicated and caring orthoman.
