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. Fritz is a miracle worker. He operated on me after a diverticulitis event, performing a colon resection, only to find out after making the incision that I was in much more danger than we knew. It was only due to his skill as a surgeon that this story had such a happy ending. He is the best.

My wife was diagnosed with a large hiatal hernia and medication was not controlling the reflux condition adequately. We were told that surgery would be necessary to correct the situation. Dr Fritz performed laproscopic parasophegeal hernia repair surgery and the results have been wonderful. Three weeks after surgery she is eating most solid foods with no discomfort. Dr. Fritz explained everything in advance and with his friendly bedside manner made her feel comfortable about the surgery.

Dr. Fritz is excellent. He has helped me through gallbladder surgery and esophageal cancer surgery. I can't say enough good things about him and his team. They are good people who really care about and for their patients.

Dr. Fritz surgically removed my thymus gland in May by doing the VATS thymectomy method. He was so knowledgable about my condition which is rare condition called Myasthenia Gravis. He has a great bedside manner and made me feel like I was going to be okay. My surgery went smoothly and my recovery was exactly how he explained it would be. His staff (AKA Anne) was amazing too! I would recommend Dr. Fritz to every friend and family member I know!

Dr. Fritz was a great fit for me and my husband. We felt very comfortable asking questions and all were answered to our satisfaction. He has a wonderful demeanor. His office staff was great. Surgery went as expected and I'm healing well.
