Dr. DeFries has cared for my parents and now me for as long as I can remember. When my was under Hospice care at home we opened the door and were much surprised to see Dr. DeFries standing there. He stopped by as a much needed friend at the time, even though we never saw him outside the office. A more knowledgeable and compassionate doctor can't be found.

Dr. Defries genuinely cares about healing his patients. If he is unsure about diagnosis, he will refer you to a knowledgeable specialist. So far, all referred doctors have been absolutely top notch and I am very satisfied with Dr. Defries as my GP.

I have known Dr. DeFries since his Family Residence at Deaconess. He is an excelant Doctor and he has always helped me with my illness and questions. He takes the time to talk to you and a friendly smile. He not just comes in and looks at your chart and then tells you are fine and leave. If he accepts new patients I highly recommend him.

i walked in his office on the verge of collapsing and he told me I was perfectly healthy, to young to have health problems, and I was just stressed. Turned out I was dehydrated and was having a reaction to something he prescribed me. I'm afraid to go back.
