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.

All I can say is Dr. Frimer is a very knowledgeable and caring physician. His expertise in his field is definitely the reason many people praise him.

Dr. Richard Frimer is not only my pulmonologist the last 6 to 7 years but I consider him a friend that pays attention to all my medical issues and needs. I am not surprised that his office is always busy because he shows great concern and compassion for his patients. Just like it should be.

Dr. Frimer has been my PCP for many years. He is a very caring, thorough and excellent doctor. He suspected that there was a problem with my prostate 2 yrars ago and sent me for a MRI and to a urologist. I had prostate cancer. I am very thankful to him for that.
