Throughout my lifetime, I have been blessed to have Dr Friedman as my primary doctor and caregiver. He has always been there for me no matter what. Always thought of him not only as great and competent physician but as a personal friend who cared and could be confided in. He's a keeper and Cooper is fortunate to have him in their employ.

Dr. Clay was wonderful. She made sure my father, a 91 year old who has hearing loss, understood her questions and took the time to listen to him. She engaged him and didn't talk past him to get answers from me. She had a great bedside manner and listened to our questions carefully and answered them to the best of her ability. She was honest and thoughtful in her answers. She explained what the treatment plan was and her staff was able to secure a bed for his RBC transfusion at a facility close to home and for the next day. I cannot thank her enough and am confident in her plans for my dad.

I love Dr Clay. She takes time to make sure I understand what's going on. Always pleasant, never rush's me if I have a problem or concern and I always get a big hug when my visit is over. B
