I brought my daughter to Dr. Friedman after she fell out of a tree. She didn't have any fractures or bruises, but she was complaining of severe back and leg pain. The pain was so bad she could not walk up stairs or bend down to tie her shoes. She is an incredibly active 7 year old who loves sports. After her first visit her pain was gone, but returned a day later. Dr. Friedman adjusted her a second time and she was able to play a full soccer game with little complaint. Since her third visit nearly a month ago she has been as active as ever with no pain. Every time I ask her how she is feeling she tells me, "I'm awesome!!!". Dr. Friedman showed the utmost of concern for her well being and his staff was amazing. On our first visit Dr. Friedman spent time explaining what his findings were and exactly how he would help. He and his staff answered all my questions. I could not be happier with his care and the results my daughter experienced. I would highly recommend Dr. Friedman.

Dr. Friedman and his staff are amazing. I have been suffering from chronic headaches for years with no relief and I am finally seeing light at the end of the tunnel. Everyone has been so friendly. The office is very relaxing. I don't feel worked up and stressed over just having to go like I have other Dr.'s in the past.

I am a woman in my 50’s I have been affected by Trigeminal Neuralgia since 2010 was told Ihave classic TN by Neurologists & NeuroSurgeon’s. There are horrid drugs and surgeries for therapy. I chose to look for alternative solution and found that Upper Cervical Chiropractic care worked for others with TN. So I tried it. I am happy with my results so far. I have been pain free. Thing about TN is that it will come back this time around has been more difficult but at this point I am almost pain free. Meaning I can talk,smile,apply moisturizer etc without pain! I still have pain eating/drinking but the pain is minimal and duration is short and will soon be gone. I soon realized that NM massage enables me to accept and hold my adjustments. Dr. Friedman is kind caring and understanding. I know anytime I’m in pain I can call & he will help me. Dr Friedman has assured me that he is committed to helping me 100% what more could you ask for in health care? Awesome Dr. and Staff!

I am a middle aged female, who suffers from Trigeminal Neuralgia (TN). Anyone familiar with this disease knows how painful these episodes can be. Before becomming a patient of Dr. Friedman, I visited several Chiropractors, but wasn't satisfied with the results. Also, surgery was recommended with a well known surgeon at Emory Hospital, because the pain became unbearable. However, after further research, I discovered about NUCCA care and met Dr. Friedman in Atlanta. I have been his patient since the Summer of 2009. I can only speak possitively about his character and professional credentials. After initially seeing Dr. Friedman several times a month, I felt much better. The adjustments always help and put me back on balance. His care alleviates my pain and keeps it under control. In my opinion, Dr. Friedman has very good people skills and is a credit to his profession. He does an amazing job regarding my adjustments and provides me with much needed confidence and hope for the future.

I first started care with Dr. Friedman, at around age 8; for symptoms regarding my enteric system. As he explained, we all have an event of trauma where our original misalignment forms; mine was at birth. My misalignment was connected to showing symptoms thru my stomach. Everything and anything that I ate, came up. I was fatigued, in pain anytime I ate, and most of all unable to live life to the optimum. From age 8, to now in my late 20's I have received care from Dr. Friedman. I cant remember the last time I felt pain or had a day of discomfort! He literally saved my life; no one knew why or what was going on with my body that was causing such a problem with my stomach. Dr. Friedman is an amazing Doctor/PERSON. He is the kind of person and Doctor that is rare and hard to find. He genuinely cares so much about each and every patient he treats; to the point where he takes it personally when he is unable to correct a patients needs (which is rare). I highly recommend, he's a life-saver!

Russel Friedman, PhD, who is the founder of NUCCA method in chiropractic failed to deliver in his promise. During the time when he was convincing me, the patient, to go through a treatment plan, he said that he will continue the adjustment for free except for massages IF after the 3 to 4 months of regular plan that I am not fully healed. Being desperate to have relief of my neck pain, I accepted it paying for everything since he is not a provider of any insurance plan. During the entire period, the only thing that helped me is the regular massage therapy or what they call muscle work which is billed $75/session aside from the $3200 of Friedman's prof fee. I should have saved the $3200 and just book for a year of weekly muscle work than go through the hocus pocus wrist wringling of Russel Friedman, PhD, which honestly did nothing to help me ease any pain. He became very bitter when he learned I will be discontinuing my sessions with him after the 4-month plan. Save your money.

He won't treat people unless they commit to long term plan. When people are in pain, they'll say yes to anything promising. But when it doesn't work, you're stuck with him.

Chiropractic adjustment such as QSM3 and NUCCA chiropractic techniques by Russell Friedman of Alternahealth Solutions cost me and my daughter of almost 5k. After a couple of months of treatment nothing happened. I would give credit though to the multiple sessions of muscle work or the type of massage I paid separately from 5k which was administered by Greg did help to manage the pain we have fom time to time during the treatment period. The PhD Friedman, upon learning we are discontinuing the treatment because I no longer have available funds became rude and never spent longer time than usual "adjusting" my neck by making the clicking sound of his wrists even though I still have 3 prepaid visits in my plan. If we could only utilize the person doing the muscle work whenever we need the type of massage (neuromuscular) he does will be of great help to us in managing the pain without taking pills, which is what alternative medicine is all about.

Dr. Friedman did the most informative clinical exam and informed me of why I was feeling the way I was accurately, in a way I could easily understand. His treatment was immediately effective, and he explained exactly what kind of follow up would be necessary to achieve Success! Thanks, Dr. Friedman!

Dr Friedman changed my life, and my entire family in ways I can't even describe. I have struggled with migraines for years, seen numerous doctors, including neurologists and other chiropractors, and Dr Friedman is the only one who's helped me. HE GAVE ME MY LIFE BACK and that is priceless. He is genuine and honest, and his knowledge and skill FAR surpass anything I have ever experienced (and I work in health care!) Dr Friedman's type of chiropractic is very different than what I have experienced previously. My migraines are gone and I am better because of his attention to every detail. He demands accuracy and I respect that. In response to the earlier post: I am familiar with Dr Friedman's xray equipment and it is state of the art. He informed me, as well as my entire family, when starting care that the filters on his machine significantly lower xray exposure. My wife and daughters now see him and I have referred many coworkers. Thank you Dr Friedman for your dedication.
