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.

Dr. Fried has is kind and knowledgeable in his specialty. I was very impressed with the entire staff when I had my endoscopy.

Horribly disappointing DR.?
He is rude, rushed ,barely responsive, inconsiderate and basically uncaring. He may or may not be good with his scopes but he is not good with people. This makes him a poor doctor. The nurses who work with him seem to have been trained to rush. I felt poorly cared for there at The Digestive Health center. I was a patient there for many years using Dr. Bermansky who was everything that Dr. Fried is not! A good doctor.

Cursory attention to patient.
Curt and seemly uninterested. I felt he was walking out the door the minute he walked in. I was so uncomfortable that I never asked him the questions I had prepared…the entire visit lasted 10 minutes!

I have been seeing Dr Fried for over 10 years. The essence of a great doctor. Caring, knowledge, informative. He will take the time necessary to make sure you understand your condition and the treatments available, their good points and the downside. When you leave his office you will be fully informed on your condition.
