Unpleasant was not happy with his services he spoke to fast and I couldn't get over the fact that he didn't try to get to know us patients but another couple with fertility issues. Put me on treatment plan then never saw him again noticed another dr was giving me my plan and that pissed me off so I took it upon myself to state my opinion and I took me and my insurance else where to a dr that my insurance pays for who sees me and only that dr gives me my treatment plan and doesn't make me feel like whe does this only for the money. How can a dr who never saw you or meet you give you a treatment plan. And I dont know how many times the office had me under the wrong dr that really pissed me off made me feel like everything was messed up from day 1 and I was not the only patient this happened too I was 1 of 3 patients that day who were under the wrong dr. Hello Boston thank God

Our son is now 17 years old and Dr. Frishman was the most compassionate and caring specialist we could have asked for. He also operated on my ectopic pregnancy preceding the healthy conception of IVF.We were always assured and able to contact him with our later concerns of conceiving a second child. Honest, knowledgable and professional. Also visited me while recuperating from a very difficult delivery of my 10 pound son.

Dr. Frishman performed a laproscopic procedure on me beacuse of my 'unuasual' Septate uterus and double cervix and because he did I was able to give birth to my son! With out the surgery I could not have carried a baby to full term, I'd always miscarried. Dr. Frishman is extremely and noticablly caring and understanding. He actually takes the time to listen to you and answer whatever questions you may have and not rush yo out the door. I highly recommend Dr. Frishman. He is very knowledgable and thorough. I was always told that I would never have children because of my rare and unique uterus, but Dr. Frishman made it possible! This is a Doctor you ca trust!!!

I found Dr. Frishman to be very helpful and understanding of our situation, both my husband and I have had children, but have been unable to conceive together. We are now on fertility meds and Dr. Frishman has been both supportive and honest through the whole experience.

Thanks to Dr. Frishman and the staff from Women & Infants, my husband and I are the proud parents of twin boys. He was extremely knowledgeable, caring, compassionate and truly wanted to help us conceive. We were happy with the care given from everyone in that practice. I would recommend them to anyone who is struggling with infertility issues.
