Emily Friedman's Online Review Report Card

SHE'S LUCKY I HAD TO PUT A STAR BECAUSE THIS LADY DESERVES 0!!!!Please WHATEVER YOU DO, DO NOT COME TO THIS DOCTOR!!! SHE PUT A SPINE STIMULATOR IN MY MOM. WELL MY MOM TOLD HER IT WASN'T WORKING AND THAT THE STIMULATOR DID NOTHING FOR HER AND THAT IT ACTUALLY MADE HER PAIN WORSE ..... THEN THIS SO CALLED DOCTOR FIRED HER... NOW MY MOM IS 100% DISABLED BECAUSE OF WHAT THIS DOCTOR DID TO HER BACK!!! SHE WAS ALL ABOUT MONEY AND ALL ABOUT SELLING THAT SPINE SIMULATOR!! PLEASE GET A SECOND OPINION IF YOU VISIT THIS LADY!! Found out from the emergency room 8-2-2022 ,this lady actually left some of the spine stimulator in her back, smh don't trust this lady....

Made an appointment only to find out they did not have any record of the appointment yet I took off work and got all the records they requested and did everything they told me to do. Frustrating when you are in pain and looking to find someone that cares about your health and well-being. After several phone calls and apologizes but no resolution except another appointment date I finally gave up and went another direction to was far more successful and pleasant experience.

Dr. Friedman is a special surgeon!! I was extremely nervous about surgery. I had a discectomy C-4 to C-7. She and her staff are always there for me every step of the way.!!! She took her time and listened to all my symptoms with care an understanding and answered all of my questions. Which help steady my nerves. The whole team paid attention to the details concerning my Insurance. After surgery I expected to have pain! I never had any pain !!! I mean none!!! I had some muscle soreness, but that was it. The numbness in my fingers disappeared right after surgery. It has been a year and I am thrilled with the results!!! I am pain free!!! I can get back to being normal.!!! I am so very thankful to Dr. Friedman and her staff.

Personable professional knowledgeable caring helpful

Dr. Friedman is one of the most competent, knowledgeable and compassionate surgeons in the field of neurological surgery. I never felt uncomfortable while under her care. She is very patient, detailed and understanding of her patients needs. I would recommend Dr. Friedman to my family and friends. She's a remarkable surgeon. I am almost 2 years out from my lower back fusion April 19, 2018 and I am doing well.

(Minimum Medical Effort, to clarify post surgery office visits felt rushed out of office no follow up efforts) She stated with initial that due the size of my neck it would take 3 year's to repair. Even knowing I was still having neck spasms headaches, she put in her report MMI at a year and a half. Take whatever work comp gives you. VA did injection had some improvement this was years later. THIS IS WHY I WOULD NOT Recommend USING HER.

Went in to have L5S1 surgery with Dr. Friedman in May of 2015. I could barely walk when I went in and when I woke up my sciatic pain was gone and has been since that day. Very compassionate and knowledgeable surgeon. Her stuff was excellent in getting insurance pushed through in a timely matter. I pass along Dr. Friedman's info to friends/family and even strangers who speak of back or neck issues.

Dr. Friedman and her staff are very caring and compassionate people. They all care about your problems or issues. Dr. Friedman answered all my questions before and after surgery. I had a 3 disc fusion in my neck, she found the issues and repaired them, and she cared and still cares for my needs. I recommend her to everyone. I am 7 months post op and I am feeling great. No headaches, my arms and hands are not going numb. Thank you Dr. Friedman!!!

I would recommend Dr. Friedman to everyone. She is open and honest and very thorough. She found my issues with my cervical spine and fixed the issues. I feel great and have no problems. Dr. Friedman is a very caring person.
