I broke my ankle and fibula, and tore my ligaments on both sides of my ankle, on an overseas vacation in January. I had emergency surgery there in the developing country, allowing me to travel home. But it was a temporary fix. I then had corrective surgery with Dr Friscia a month later in February, and I am pleased with his meticulous attention to detail, and his using the latest technology to repair both my bones and ligaments. I was also very impressed with Eisenhower‘s operating suite, their pre-and post operative care (n... read more
The worst, most uninvolved, least patient oriented physician I have EVER dealt with. Barely spoke to me or my partner, ever; even after two surgery in two months he never once came to me or my partner after to report on how things went. They went horribly. Because of his lack of attention and oversight of his PA I had 3 hospital admissions, 5 ER admissions, 2 surgeries, and ended up with an open wound for over 6 weeks that he did not address. I had to self-refer to a limb-salvage specialist and now I have a PICC line to my h... read more
Dr. David Friscia is one of the finest foot and ankle surgeons in America. I needed an ankle replacement for the last 15 years, but other surgeons I visited wanted to "fuse" my ankle. I am only 60 years old and did not want to walk with a limp and a stiff ankle the rest of my life. Dr. Friscia was such a seasoned professional and so confident that he had no problems giving me a complete ankle in-bone replacement. I can now walk normally and have no pain. Dr. Friscia gave me my life back!
I broke my heel and Dr Friscia repaired my heel and took care of the bone that was sticking out, and later my knee so far so good . It's only been a year but I am very happy with the out come, , Dr Friscia spends the time that is needed with me and always ask if I have any questions, thank you Dr Friscia
The office is nice & staff is polite; However. I was kept waiting 90 minutes past my scheduled appointment time, making my total wait over 2 hours because I arrived early as required. Dr. Friscia spent 5 mins with me. He then mis-read my MRI results (which I confirmed w/ 2 other doctors), and prescribed a topical medication that cannot be used while breastfeeding, despite his staff TWICE confirming that I am nursing. Wasted $40 for meds I can’t use and can’t return. I was just a number to him.
Dr. Friscia performed surgery on my ankle in which both bones were broken....he is a reserved quiet man of few words. Its true, that his PA takes most of his appointments post surgery, but i asked to see him and he came in to talk to me. All of the staff was very good and professional, there were never any long waits, i read the other reviews, but never had an issue making calls and getting in touch with someone. Overall, i am extremely happy with the whole experience.
After suffering for two years from loss of cartilage in an ankle I feel I was fortunate to have found Dr. Friscia at the Eisenhower Desert Orthopedic Center for complete ankle replacement surgery. The skill and expertise of Dr. Friscia and his staff carried me seamlessly through the preparation, surgery and painless recovery period in a caring and professional manner. It has been truly life changing for me, and I can now walk without pain.
Great Dr. and wonderful staff.
Excellent care. Outstanding. We received wonderful care and the staff was very professional.
