My 71 year old Mother was seeing Dr. Friedman until I took her in for an appointment. After waiting 55 minutes, he saw her in the office for no more than 5. She was escorted out to the waiting room where Friedman promptly demanded a check from me for the office visit. Only after he stuffed the check in his pocket did he hand her a prescription and escorted us out the door.

I spoke with her pharmacist only to find out this Doctor was prescribing her a 21 day supply of medications instead of a normal 30 day. Forcing her to come in the office every three weeks instead of four weeks; more money this way. The nauseating drug's he was prescribing: 1 for pain, 2 different anxiety meds, 1 for sleep, 1 for depression, 1 for bipolar disorder? a medication for schizophrenia?? She has NONE of these disorders!!!

After reading the reviews, I asked my mom if Friedman had treated her like this: yelling at her, hanging up on her... Yes, she had experienced it all at one time or another. If you're seeing Dr. Friedman or if you're thinking about seeing him, please don't, find a competent physician who cares about your heath and is willing to listen to what you have to say.

I'm happy to say that we have found her a new physician and she is improving. It has become very apparent that many of her problems were being caused by the medications he was prescribing. STAY AWAY FROM THIS MAN HE'S DANGEROUS!!!

Dr. Jack Friedman, is just wonderful. He listens, he is patient and I would not trade him for the world. The first time I came in I sat down and he asked me pointed questions about my injury. Well needless to say from then on he has stayed one step ahead of the game in my treatment.
I just wish he could teach other doctors about bedside manners.
