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.

Wonderful results!
During my visit Dr. Friedman took his time, explained the procedure and relieved my nerves. I was extremely pleased with the results and would highly recommend.

Fantastic Results!
Dr. Friedman is extremely knowledgeable and demonstrates a genuine commitment to his craft and to understanding what patients’ desired outcomes are. I was very pleasantly surprised by how effective (and painless) his treatments for my scars have been, and the improvement in their appearance has exceeded my expectations. I have also seen Dr. Friedman for botulinum toxin and had fantastic results. After having negative experiences with several other injectors over the years I was hesitant to try it again, but he took the time to understand what I was trying to achieve and what I did not like about treatments from other injectors, and he delivered exactly what I asked for. His team members and staff are also wonderful. I would not entrust my scar or cosmetic injection treatments to anyone else.

Professional and thorough
The staff is very professional but friendly. Had a laser done with Dr. Friedman, who was recommended by my own dermatologist as the best laser derm in Houston. He explained everything to me and took his time to answer my questions. Highly recommend him and his office.

Amazing experience!
I had a great experience with Dr. Friedman. It was my first time meeting him and coming into his clinic for a laser treatment on my birthmark and I immediately felt comfortable. I had felt like my treatments on my birthmark were a big deal for my entire life and after leaving his clinic afterwards, I felt so much more relaxed and realized it was a completely normal part of my life. I would highly recommend! His staff and Dr. Friedman himself were all great!

Exceptional Care
I'm immensely grateful for the exceptional care provided by Dr. Friedman in treating my daughter's port wine stain. Throughout her birthmark journey she has been consulted and treated by several dermatologists, but we feel most confident with making her medical decisions and treatment plan under his care. We travel from Dallas to Houston for her appointments because Dr. Friedman's expertise, compassionate approach, and up-to-date knowledge on the latest research make the travel worthwhile. Aside from his proficiency in treatment, he is caring and has genuine concern for her emotional wellbeing as undergoing the treatments is not easy for an 8 year old. The welcoming atmosphere and friendly staff at the clinic, contribute to a positive experience. For anyone dealing with similar situations, I confidently recommend Dr. Friedman.

Tattoo Removal
I started a tattoo removal in New Orleans, LA and had a terrible experience. I was left with severe scarring and moderate ink removal (at best). The experience left me unable to trust just about anyone to do any type of laser removal on me, so I started some research and found Dr. Friedman through publications he had been featured in. I started seeing him soon after and, 3 years later, we have come such a long way. He was able to get rid of most of my scarring and 99% of the ink. Having a scar from a tattoo you hoped to be removed is a truly disappointing experience. I would have never been able to achieve 99% removal of the ink and scar without the expertise and patience of Dr. Friedman. I now fly from New Orleans to Houston to see him for most of my dermatology needs and he has my total and implicit trust. Please do not let just anyone with your tattoo removal. I have spent thousands of dollars to get rid of the work of people who should have NEVER been allowed to use a laser on pati

Life Saver
I saw Dr. Friedman for a burn around my mouth from a fraxel treatment by a plastic surgeon. It was red, lumpy, itchy, tight and constantly irritated. I was in a fragile state experiencing depression and anxiety. He gave me hope that he could minimize the scarring and redness with 6-12 vbeam treatments. After 18, I am now almost completely clear minus some texture issues. He has given me my life back. I would highly recommend this doctor for anyone experiencing something similar. Thank you Dr. Friedman for your healing hands.

I would definitely recommend Dr. Friedman for mohs surgery. I have had six such surgeries and they were very successful. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Friedman to anyone needing mohs surgery; he won’t cut off more than is needed. His staff is always cordial and makes you feel welcome. I never have to wait very long before I see Dr. Friedman. He’s the best.

I would definitely recommend Dr. Friedman for any cosmetic treatment. I am getting married in June and had several scars on my back and arms that I wanted to get rid of. Dr. Friedman helped fade my scars in just a few months which is incredible and will give me so much more confidence on my wedding day.

5 stars. Outstanding work. Referred by my oculoplastic surgeon for cosmetic laser resurfacing around my eyes. All my expectations were met. Returned for Genius RF microneedling. Phenomenal results. Dr. Friedman is a leader is dermatology & laser techniques. Well worth the investment. Straight answers & you will be told what will work & what is not necessary. Will be returning for follow ups as needed to maintain the phenomenal work he did. Looking forward to future innovative laser techniques developed by him vs a facelift (which I am trying to prevent at 60 yoa). My journey will be exciting. Nice job ! Julie Anderson

I had a large 7 hour Mohs surgery. It was oddly pleasent. Nice surroundings and gracious support staff. Mostly I appreciated that even though this surgery took up much of his time for the day. I never once felt that he was rushed or in any way risked any time-saving short cuts. Mohs means he has to do a lot of pathology himself on frozen specimens. He was meticulous. I felt I was receiving responsible medical CARE and not mere insurance endorsed medical treatment. There is a difference!

Not only is Dr. Friedman very knowledgeable, and professional, he is also kind and down to earth. I have had vbeam and fractal laser work done, the effects are substantial. There is also pain control, in the form of NO gas, for the fractal procedure. The support staff are excellent and attentive. The skin care products on site are also excellent. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Friedman to anyone needing help with skin concerns.
