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.

Love him!!!
Dr. Froehlich was very knowledgeable, but more importantly very patient, kind and funny. I have limited options to resolve a knee issue, and he assured me I had options, and he would help me find the best one. I left the appointment very positive, and would highly recommend Dr. Froehlich. He is an 11 out of 10! Thank you.

Best of the best.
Been going to Doc Froehlich with my orthopedic needs for almost a dozen years. I have great confidence in his abilities. He replaced my hip a decade ago and it’s close to the time to replace the other. Would not want any other doctor to do the procedure.
