Dr. Friedman @ USC
« on: February 20, 2015, 11:37:52 am »
Hi all!

I am a week and a half away from my surgery with Dr. Friedman at USC. If you had your surgery with Dr. Friedman since he has been at USC, I would love to hear about it! The more I know about what to expect the calmer I get.

Thank you!

Hi Auntie .....

Although Dr. Friedman was still at House Ear Clinic when he and Dr. Schwartz did my surgery at St. Vincent's Hospital, in my mind you are going to one of the best in the country so I know you will do well.

Dr. Friedman is not only an excellent physician, he truly cares about each and every one of his patients.  That combination is hard to beat.

Best thoughts and many prayers for an uneventful surgery and recovery.

Hi Auntie,
I am considering surgery with Dr Friedman.  I would love to hear about how your surgery and recovery went. What type of surgery you had and the size of your tumor. Do you know what nerves it was touching? Hope you had a very nice outcome and as easy a road as possible with recovery:) Thank you for any information you may share.
