This is Victor Sy, CPA from Los Angeles, California. I was on a Viking cruise ship that docked in Melbourne in January 2023 when my pacemaker failed. I was transported by ambulance to the Alfred E.R. and was attended to by Dr Mark (not sure if it’s Dr Freilich). He was very good, professional, caring and was able to do a miracle: had my Medtronic pacemaker reset, saved my life, and got me back to my cruise line within hours. He’s truly a miracle worker. I want to thank him and the caring staff who attended to me. I’m back in California hoping that Dr Mark accepts my invitation to visit us in Los Angeles and Las Vegas.

Came in on a friend's recommendation, with a referral from a GP of course. Had seen Dr Freilich several years ago, and found nothing wrong however this time, a slight stomach ache turned out to be a heart attack. After an echo, all done in his rooms, I was admitted, had 2 stents and home in 2 days. Thanks to his knowledge and careful attitude a major heart attack was averted.
I cannot say enough about this wonderful, intelligent, giant of a man with a beautiful heart.
Look forward to seeing him in 6 weeks. He has even called me to see how I was doing at home.

was referred to Dr Freilich by my GP. As soon as we met he put me at ease, his deep voice was calm yet assuring, despite the fact that I had had a heart attack, I had to have a stent and he assured me honestly that it should go well. Well!! I have not looked back, was out of hospital in 2 days and now have regular 6 monthly check ups which I look forwards to. The nicest most polite doctor I have met, makes going to see a specialist a pleasant experience as I left his office feeling confident about myself
