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.

He has been my brothers Dr for many years. My brother has some disabilities. Dr Friesen was a most perfect Dr today when I took him to see Dr Friesen who was patient, spending about 30 minutes w us on an issue. He was very helpful and I hope he stays in practice for years to come. Knowledgeable, did not make us feel rushed, listened very well and ordered a test, studying it very well and making a referral taking our thoughts into consideration.

Compassionate, thorough, and a good listener. Saw him at the minor care clinic on a Saturday afternoon. Would definitely recommend him.

Dr. Friesen is suppose to be caring for my children's father. He has been in the hospital twice in the last 3 weeks and he has not communicated with my children or their father at all, his own patient. They are worried sick but Dr. Friesen has not taken the time to tell them anything about what's going on with him even though they have permission to receive it. If your looking for adequate communication with your Doctor, do not choose Dr. Friesen. This whole process is not right.

Dr Friesen has been my physician for 8 years now and I think he is a wonderful doctor. He is friendly, caring and is very attentive to my needs. He takes the time to diagnose and explain things in great detail. Can get labs the same day lot of the time. I highly recommend him and the West Wichita family Physicians!
