Dr. Friscia was thorough in his assessment of me post-operatively. He took time to explain things to me. My surgical outcome was positive...I am doing well. I appreciate Dr. Friscia's professionalism, expertise, dedication, and kindness. He made a real difference in my life/my family's life during a very stressful time.
