I've been under the care of Dr. Frueh and his team since early 2020 for osteoarthritis in my knee. Dr. Frueh & my husband and I developed a care plan to manage pain, keep me mobile, and delay surgery as long as possible due to Covid. Dr. Frueh was excellent in explaining options in detail each step of the way. Ultimately, I had a total knee replacement surgery with him and his team in June 2021. Even though I had complicating health issues, I had full confidence with him and his team I would have a complication free surgery.... read more

The first time I saw Dr. Frueh, he examined me and sent me for an MRI. It took over a month, and several phone calls, just to schedule the MRI. For my second appointment, now two months later, Dr Frueh looked at the MRI and said that I needed a new hip. He told me to check with my insurance and call to schedule the surgery when I was ready to spend the money. Seriously, that was it. He didn’t examine me on the second visit and didn’t explain the surgery - at all. I’ve since seen two other surgeons who disagreed with the need... read more

I’ve had the pleasure of Dr. Frueh’s expertise before. He was instrumental in making my hip replacement a wonderful success. I am now trusting him to do a knee replacement. He is so skilled and nice I send family and friends to him. No one has ever been unhappy about their experience. I’d give him more stars if I were able.

Dr. Frueh listened to all of my symptoms and was ready to help me, after having a previous right hip replacement that didn’t go so well by another doctor. Dr. Frueh was prompt in treating me with left hip replacement, and very compassionate during his visits to me in the hospital afterwards. He’s a wonderful orthopedic doctor. I’m so glad someone referred him to me.

Absolutely! Dr Frueh did my right knee 10 years ago, then my left knee 2 years later. I was bone on bone suffering for several years before surgery due to pain. Best Healthcare move I have made! I have worked out every week day without pain or lack of flexibility. Dr. Frueh continues the care if I overdo and have any problems! My knees are so strong now that I sometimes get carried away with exercise.

Dr Frueh is professional, friendly, and thorough. He explained the diagnosis and made appropriate recommendations for treatment. He answered all my questions without making me feel rushed.

I like Dr. Freuh. He has replaced both my hips and did a fabulous job. He really knows what he's doing and I wouldn't hesitate to go back to him (he also does knees) if I ever need more surgery.

Good visit, listened well and gave a good opinion. Nurse made out a referral order, but listed the wrong knee. Should be PT for my left knee, not my right knee
