Dr Freudigman is truly a great Dr/Surgeon. After my knee surgeries he has always been willing to spend as much time with me as necessary and I believe is truly caring about my health. He is "down to earth" and is human when talking with you but is clinical as well. I feel his approach to me is spot on with my health. Thank you Dr.
