Dr. Friedman is truly brilliant. His expertise and accuracy with testing are unparalleled,…read moreespecially when it comes to rare diseases like Cushing's. I live locally, and during an adrenal crisis, the hospital team wouldn't listen when I urgently needed Hydrocortisone. I called the Cushing's advocates, and thanks to him, I received the life-saving medication right away. I don't believe I'd be here if it weren't for him. He is very well known in the endocrinology field and has worked with many other hospitals in the past. Whenever I speak with someone who has Cushing's disease, I always recommend Dr. Friedman. He's incredibly well-known in the Cushing's community and is highly skilled in diagnosing and teaching patients how to test properly. Many people struggle with misdiagnosis or a lack of diagnosis because some endocrinologists aren't familiar with testing for this rare condition. Dr. Friedman not only understands it but also educates other doctors, which is invaluable. He is thorough, dedicated, and even has a great sense of humor once you get to know him. Although he doesn't work with insurance directly, he provides a superbill, which allows patients to submit claims for coverage. Here is what is great about that. I have found that many times insurance dictates the care a doctor can prescribe or test for. Hence, it is the insurance who are determining your care. Insurance should never have that power and that is a big reason people cannot access care. Dr F takes care of what he believes is necessary to care for you individually. In my experience, quality care is worth it, and Dr. Friedman's knowledge and commitment have saved me years of misdiagnosis and unnecessary testing. I learned this the hard way. Don't waste your time esp if they have no idea what they are doing. For anyone facing a challenging diagnosis, Dr. Friedman's experience, attention to detail, and genuine passion for helping difficult cases are unmatched. I'm grateful to have him as my doctor and feel secure in his care.

I have been a patient of Dr. Friedman's for more than 20 years and always had the utmost respect…read morefor him as he is truly brilliant. Unfortunately, following my most recent appointment with Dr. Friedman and, subsequently, the way Edmil has handled my medically necessary prescription, I no longer have faith in this office. Dr. Friedman does not accept insurance. As a senior, I pay $165 for a 10-minute telephone appointment to have my laboratory results reviewed and receive new prescriptions. Clinical notes containing Dr. Friedman's plan of treatment are emailed to me after the appointment. Because my thyroid levels fluctuate considerably, I must have bloodwork every two to three months. My general practitioner runs my lab tests throughout the year as I can only afford Doctor Friedman's expertise twice a year at most . I have not seen him in person for many years and he only monitors my thyroid. This time, our phone appointment was very different and rushed. When I mentioned that I had gained weight, he suddenly asked whether I wanted to take a GLP-1 medication. I was incredulous that he would suggest this without discussing my extensive medical history, autoimmune conditions, recent bloodwork, and numerous other health issues. It made me feel as though he had simply joined the GLP-1 bandwagon, which I found concerning. He also told me that I should now take my thyroid medication with food, even though he had always instructed me to take it hours before eating, as had every other doctor who treated me. Along with my clinical notes, he sent me a two-page document titled "A New Approach to Thyroid Hormone Timing and Management: Should You Take Your Thyroid Hormones with Food?" The study described in the document involved patients taking a higher dosage to compensate for reduced absorption with food, followed by REGULAR laboratory testing and dosage adjustments. The document also discussed AI modeling that it acknowledged still needed to be replicated in actual pharmacokinetic studies. The evidence did not appear conclusive to me, and I am not willing to be part of an experiment, particularly without appropriate monitoring. Despite telling me to make this major change, he then said, "Make an appointment in three months. You don't even have to do your labs." What would be the purpose of another appointment without current bloodwork, especially when my thyroid levels fluctuate dramatically and I do not feel well? The situation became even more disturbing when I contacted the Pharmacy and learned that my prescription had been submitted with the incorrect dosage. I saw Dr. Friedman in July, and it is now September. I am still waiting for my medication because Edmil has repeatedly failed to submit the correct dosage. Despite my calls and emails clearly explaining the error, he continued to state the dosage incorrectly instead of reviewing my July clinical notes or confirming the proper instructions with Dr. Friedman. This is not a minor administrative mistake. An incorrect dosage and a two-month delay in obtaining medically necessary medication can have serious health consequences. Had I not still had some medication remaining, I would have been left without treatment and unable to function because of Edmil's repeated failure to process the prescription accurately. After more than 20 years as a patient, I never imagined that this relationship would end this way. Between the medical conversation and Edmil's repeated failure to process my prescription correctly, this entire experience has felt like an episode of The Twilight Zone. Update As of September 6, this still has not been resolved. I continue to receive emails from his office asking me for the same information I have already provided repeatedly--sometimes in the very email thread they are responding to. I am also being asked questions about my treatment that his staff should be asking him or confirming by reviewing my clinical notes. It is as though no one is actually reading my messages, communicating with the dr, or taking responsibility for resolving this. The continued confusion, delay, and complete lack of urgency surrounding my inability to receive my medication due to Dr. Friedman's incompetent office staff is unconscionable, not to mention potentially life-threatening. Update:Sept 7 : Lynn called and emailed several times yesterday and today. She is doing everything she can to get my prescription ordered correctly. I truly thank you Lynne !
