Patient Reviews
Sep 07, 2023
I was told prior to my bunionectomy that it would be covered by medicare. Yet several items were not covered. Yet medicare after 3 months is still declining 3 items for thousands of dollars. Therefore my supplemental will not pay also. Very disappointing. May not go back for any more follow up appointments. I don't need the expense nor aggravation.

Dr Friscia has a whole team of professionals working with him. Preparing the patient, with no fear or confusion. Thank you and I look forward to returning and completing my procedure. I look forward to wearing sandals and polishing my toenails bright red
