Dr. Alice Friedman, MD

After performing my colonoscopy, Dr. Friedman walked into my curtained off room with me on the gurney, and bluntly said, "Your colon is a mess." No questions answered. She just moved on quickly. It turned out that I had colon cancer. Dr. Friedman was about as compassionate as a dead fish. I warn you. FIND ANOTHER DOCTOR.

Dr. Friedman has been my doctor for about 15 years now. I have a very complicated Crohn's issues along with many many other health issues. She never stopped until she would get to the bottom of why I wasn't feeling well. Referral to the best doctors for my issues. I truly believe she has saved my life!! She has the best staff that care!! I feel like she treats me like I were a member of her family!! Truly the best!!

The most incompetent doctor I’ve ever experienced! Major missed diagnosis confirmed by another doctor. She prescribed a medicine that was extremely dangerous to a condition that I did not even have. Stay stay stay far away from this inept so-called doctor.

Dr. Friedman was very kind and helped me understand what I needed to do. She explained things in a way I could understand. She is very experienced and that came through.

Excellent Dr., but if you want to make an appointment, cancel, or reschedule, you will wait on the phone for 30 minutes or more, each and every time, which is hard to do if you have a job or commitments during the day.

Dr. Friedman is the best in Austin. She is very busy, but she is, as another review stated, a LIFE SAVER. Her staff is great as well.

I love my doctor she’s prompt, very sufficient and always taken care of my health problems. I would highly recommend her to anyone.

I went to her for routine colonoscopy. I never saw her during my pre-op appt. — only met with a nurse. I didn’t meet her until I was on the table in the surgery suite. Never introduced herself — just scolded me for waiting until early 50s for colonoscopy... even though my internal Med doc and OBGYN never advised getting one earlier. I had to ask who she was during conversation and she just said “I’m your doctor,” then turned around, walked off. Never saw her again. Thankfully nurses were great

Dr Friedman helped me untangle 2 years of messy diagnostic exams by other doc's, mostly sloppy Austin Gastro doc's, and I finally feel the correct tests will be run, with an accurate diagnosis as a result. She took a lot of time with me and was very compassionate.

I love Dr. Friedman. She has been a life saver. I don't even mind the 20 mile trip to her office. I highly recommend her.

Dr. Friedman has helped me with more than gastro issues. She is an excellent clinician and very personable. I've been a patient for five years and I feel fortunate to be in her care. I've had life long gastro issues. My first upper and lower GIs were done when I was 19 years old. I'm 53 and my diet and health are better than ever. Thank you Dr. Friedman!

Dr. Friedman has gone out of her way to help address issues proactively several times over the past 15 years. She is very patient, willing to help think out of the box to address issues and to handle situations professionally. I have recommended her to many friends over the years.
