Awesome doctor. Very knowledgeable and seemed to genuinely care about my injury. He gave me a direct plan for moving forward.
Very nice and kind, starts with a plan to get you better and checks on you every week until you are ready for two weeks. Really seems to care for you even though he’s very quick with everyone. He reads the X-rays in the X-ray room and then he comes and talks.
Excellent surgeon with a great bedside manner. Shows genuine concern for his patients.
I have broken both feet and was introduced to this doctor, got me taken care of, you can’t go wrong here. 😊🙏
My son had a good experience! We were thankful he was able to get an appt quickly.
Great courteous staff! Very thorough! Addressed all of my concerns worked with me to come up with a plan to treat my injury and get me back where I need to be. Looking forward to visiting again for my next fracture!!
I have seen other Orthopedic doctors before but both Dr. Frerich and is PA were wonderful!
Dr. Frerichs was great. He was very friendly and knowledgeable. I finally feel like I’m on a path to healing my knees and walking pain free again.
He was very helpful and nice. Very friendly also.
Excellent Doctor!
