Recently at Advent Palm Coast thru ER at 4 am. Talked to
Dr Frady for a few minutes, very kind and funny. Wonder why he left Flagler Hospital in St Augustine?? But he ordered a few x-rays and ordered nothing by mouth and I never saw him again. He thought I would have surgery, which nothing by mouth would be right if you were to have surgery soon. But they waited 30 hours before the surgeon decided he wanted to transfer me to Mayo clinic. The weather turned bad raining and high winds, so they kept me and began to torture me. I have CKD stage 4, have had chemo and 3 surgeries at Mayo with robotic and laser. All of this is on my records which they ignored. This hospital is a zoo. The surgeon standing in front of 3 nurses told them there would not be any surgery, but they still insisted nothing by mouth. Because of chemo my stomach drops acid with no food, I take Sodium Bicarbonate pills, 650mg pills at the rate of 8 a day. This never happened and I was going crazy. Also I have a stoma bag on my side, these so called nurses had never saw one. My stoma bag was filling with blood. I told a nurse this is bad. I told her she needs to take a sample. She told me she can not because the doctor did not order it. somebody ordered the two hour x-ray and I had to swallow some kind of clear solution. As I said I came in at 4 am with food poison and they went off into left field about something else. I had severe stomach pains and cramps. During all the x-rays and exams I never got anything for PAIN, after 9 hours I finally begged the nurse to give a pain shot. I called for the head nurse, after two hours she finally showed up. I asked her what my name was. she did not know and it was on the board. I asked her did she know my medical record, she said no that she would have to look at computer. she said she had 13 other patients to look after...after 36 hours of going completely crazy I called my wife and said meet me out front. I told this group of misfits from Flagler Hospital St Augustine good bye and I will never come back.. I would not bring a sick dog here

Knowledgeable, caring and kind. A visit to Dr. Frady's feels more like a visit with a friend. He remembers you, your history, and your family. He is hysterically funny; much like the "Columbo" of medicine. The wait time is short, and he takes as much time as needed to take care of your needs. There may be more dashing doctors in town, but none more attentive.
