Review for Dr. Friedman
Dr. Friedman was very kind and explained everything well to myself and my son about what happened and the next steps to follow. She has the confidence that comes with experience. We would definitely recommend her to friends and family who would need her expertise.

Review for Dr. Sajadi
Micah is the best , hands down! She knows her stuff and she makes me super comfortable when I have my appointments. Her and her assistant went over n beyond to get my employer what I needed for my fmla, when it was so much of a hassle with the third party... I wouldn't go to anyone else but her!
