Dr. Friedman caused me a brain injury, performed a procedure in my brain I did not consent to. He refused to visit me an...d his other patients after he performs surgery. He refused to be accountable to patients he harms but gladly bills their insurance for the mess he made. Shands administration will not help you after he injures you. He brings in so much revenue for the hospital, they protect him at all costs. more details
