"I had RY surgery April 24, 2012 by Dr. Friedman. From the time I went to the "Meet the Doctor" appointment to today, I have had no reason to believe I wasn't making the right decision with the right physician. He came across quite confident in his abilities, almost arrogant, however, that is why I knew he was good at his job. His staff, Jennifer especially, is so supportive and knowlegable and comforting. She is also his patient. He also has a top-notch nutritionist, Ashton, to answer questions and guide you through this life changing event. I prayed for direction when I first started my journey. It lead me to this doctor at this time. My experience was so positive, I brought my daughter to this doctor. This was a great experience in that the hospital staff after surgery were exceptional. They were very caring and compationate. Dr. Friedman came and answered my questions and concerns. He was very present after surgery which gave me great comfort to know he was not just the surgeon, he cared about me the patient. If I could recommend a doctor to you, it would be Dr. Jeffrey Friedman. He and his staff are the best. I am almost a year out from and still visit my doctor and call with any questions. Dr. Friedman lets you know this is lifelong journey, not just a one-day surgery. I hope my experience would be comforting and informative for anyone considering RY surgery."
