Philip Fried, MD

I booked an appointment with Dr Philip Fried for 12pm. I was 10 minutes early. Upon arrival I let the receptionist know I had filled out the paperwork online through Zocdoc. She stated she did not have access to the paperwork. At 12:35 I asked how long of a wait there would be considering my 12pm appointment. She stated that I booked an online reservation through Zocdoc and that it did not count because «that’s not a real appointment» And pointed to a handwritten appointment list next to her tattered and tangled mess of dirty phone charging cables on her desk. She stated that no one had ever booked or confirmed this appointment with their office. I said «I booked an online appointment with a service that you support and you’re telling me it’s not a real appointment?» I walked out. One star for the handling of the situation. Worth noting that other patients in the waiting room laughed when I asked how long the wait would be, 35 minutes after my appointment was scheduled. Seems they had all settled in for the long haul.

I don’t know why i went to this doctor to check a mole on my arm. He looked for 5 seconds and then said it’s benign. And that was it. He charged me $ 100. Freakn bllsht.

I went to Dr. Fried on Monday with second degree burns on my face and chest and severe pain from a terrible case on sun poisoning. He saw me on almost zero notice and reassured me that with the creams and antibiotics he prescribed me, I’d be fine. It’s not three days later and I’m almost completely healed. I was in his waiting room and panicking about how much pain I was in and how I could avoid infection and permanent damage. I’m no longer worrying at all. Dr. Fried was a kind and compassionate person and his treatment cured me 100%. I highly recommend him to anyone in the area. He’s a good man and definitely in the right job!
