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.

Horrible bedside manner. Describing my sympoms to him was humiliating. He just stared at me as if I had two heads and talked to me in a degrading manner. I would never recommend him to anyone or let him talk to/treat a loved one.

Incredibly polite but is either a genius who doesn't know to get out of the rain or pretending to be. Has not helped our neighbor with dementia whose wife insists on taking her husband there. Some of the meds seem to aggravate the condition or create another problem.. I would not take my loved ones to him for dementia.

Dr. Friedland is a clinical and research neurologist so yes, he is busy but is extremely knowledgeable about his field and is even actively looking for new treatments. He was able to diagnose my mom after we saw multiple other specialists and she had tons of other tests. He was always polite in our appointments and seemed to give us honest answers to our questions. I appreciated his expertise during a difficult process.

Never familiar with my case. Asked questions not pertinent to me. (He had the wrong chart). Documented notes & results in my record that weren't mine. ordered a test & on return visit for results said I didn't do test, Asked who ordered it, (HIM) where I had it done (THERE). Insisted I hAd not done the test,brought nurse into room & told her to inform me there weren't results then left room. Nurse able to find results immediately but it was 2 1/2 HOURS before he came back to go over them.
