I have been a patient at Vanderbilt since a very early age. I have always had a great experience with every Doctor and Nurse I have had to care for me. Over the almost 50 years I have been a patient, I have had some long wait times, but this year it was not incredibly long, neither was my wait when I was in the exam room

I feel that this visit the Dr had spent more time studying my case and updating himself. I was a new patient under him last visit.

Dr. Frishhertz is one of the best doctors and most wonderful doctor that I I have ever met. He treats you like you are his best friend and part of his family. He is so relaxed and just takes his time to listen to everything. I have been with him since he came to Vanderbilt. He is wonderful and precious to me.
