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. Freiman is the best!
Dr Freiman possesses a calm, confident, nearly Zen-like manner that is very reassuring. The Kips Bay facility where Freiman handles his procedures is clean, modern and spacious. The staff members there are pleasant and professional.

My husband called to make an appointment with Dr Freiman for a colonoscopy. The receptionist informed my husband that our insurance is under review to remove itself from the exchange (although according to Connect Care, that would not happen until the end of 2018. Because of that, they would not give him an appointment even though our insurance is intact. Highly unethical. Plenty of gastroenterologists in New York City so I would pass this one by.
