Dr Friscia did a simple surgery in 2014 to remove arthritis and stated I would be good as new in 6 months. However, I could not wear shoes for almost one full year and my foot still hurts and is stiff around the surgery site. When I asked Dr Friscia about these problems, he said he didn’t know what went wrong. Also, his P.A. waited too long to remove the stitches and the skin had grown over, then they were out of numbing spray which made the stitch removal very painful. I was supposed to have a barely visible scar but it is ... read more

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

I had a complete rupture of my left Achilles tendon in July, 2021. Dr. Friscia and his staff got me in for consultation very quickly and scheduled me for surgery a week later. Ten months later, I have just completed a 100 mile hiking trip with zero pain or issues. If that's not a testament to Dr. Friscia, I don't know what is!

Dr. Friscia is my hero. He performed a masterful reconstruction surgery on my painful arthritic foot. I suffered with pain for 30 years until I found a Doctor that I believed could correct my foot. I trust him with my life. He is AWSOME!!

Following what I believe was a successful open achilles repair by Dr. Friscia, the incision opened slightly after 6 weeks and under his care it expanded and became a long term wound issue. In spite of the persistent wound, the doctor chose not to refer me to a wound clinic, even while the treatments in his office over the course of 2+ months were wholly ineffective, and possibly damaging. As weekly office visits produced worsening outcomes, the doctor's solution was to perform not one, but two, more "surgeries" under general... read more

For over fifty years I have suffered from ankle damage caused by a gunshot wound received in Viet Nam. Reaching a stage where walking had become very difficult, I decided to seek a remedy. Following a careful investigation, I consulted with Dr. Friscia. After an initial visit, followed by X-rays and a CT Scan, I decided on a total ankle replacement. Dr. Friscia is not only knowledgeable and experienced, but possesses a demeanor that inspires a patient's confidence. Six months after the replacement, I am pain free and have re... read more

I had a full ankle replacement from Dr. Friscia in July. I am 80 years old and had concerns about having this surgery, since online research indicated this joint replacement has not been done nearly as often as other joints. We also had concerns about the surgery during a pandemic and at my age. My spouse and I were extremely impressed with the time Dr. Friscia took to carefully answer our questions. He and his team are extremely conscientious about both surgeries and patients. He and his office have even researched orthoped... read more
