Dr Larsen took time to answer my questions, explain options, and seemed to value my input. I have already added him as my cardiologist to my contacts in my phone. I will recommend him to anyone who asked.

I love Dr Friedman. He is the best he spends time with you. He listens to you. He tries to help you find the most cost-effective way to get your medications and he’s on the cutting edge of all the new development and cardiology. He’s the greatest.

Dr. Friedman makes sure the patient understands everything, no matter how long it takes to accomplish it. He is friendly and polite, and seems to be very well-versed in his field. Doctors like Dr. Friedman are very rare in this day and age.

I always feel that Dr Friedman is working with me and trying to look for the best solutions to my health issues instead of a blanket response given to every patient.

Dr Biria personally made calls to a specialist to secure a procedure that no other Dr would address. He was patient & understanding & showed genuine concern & compassion.

Dr Friedman and his team are super friendly and professional. He always greets with a smile during these tough times for mom.

Dr Kichura is an excellent Doctor! Caring, courteous, and communicates effectively to his patients. He cares and it shows. Walking his patients to the service desk after the visit and saying goodbye to his patients is a class act. Just a superb professional and human being! Shout out to Jasmine for her wonderful personality and attentiveness to her work.

Dr. Biria knows his specialty. And his assistant was kind and helpful. She explained the details of wearing the heart monitor.

Dr Friedman is actually a caring human being. These days, with medical care the way it is, I feel that we patients have to settle for the fact that we got the x-ray, or the pill, or the surgery. Dr. Friedman actually embodies the idea that "Through our exceptional health care services, we reveal the healing presence of God." The support staff, not so much. Which means, of course, that they need more support.

Oct 5, 2026
He is extremely knowledgeable and and listens to his patients concerns!
