Dr Friedman requires a $50.00 deposit for all patients prior to scheduling new and follow up appointments. Phone appointments must be paid in full before the "phone appointment".

$25 - $50 charge for pre-certification beginning October 1, 2008.

Insurance companies are requiring more paperwork for pre-certification and pre-authorization of outpatient medical procedures, such as MRIs. This is tying up office staff time. As a result, Dr. Friedman's office will begin charging a $25 fee for each pre-authorization or pre-certification, as of October 1, 2008.



If Dr. Friedman recommends procedures for the patient when they come to L. A., such as an MRI or CT and the testing requires pre-certification from the insurance company, the $50.00 will be used to pay for this service. Should the patient not require pre-certification, the full $50.00 deposit will be deducted from their consultation fee. Those who suspect Cushing's or are diagnosed with Cushing's, will most likely have to pay the pre-certification fee.

Dr. Friedman has a unique practice. He is an experienced, board-certified endocrinologist and researcher, he has the capabilities to diagnose and treat even the most difficult hormonal problems. He is compassionate, a good listener and willing to “think outside the box”. He cannot diagnose or treat patients without first seeing them in his Los Angeles Clinic and is unable to respond personally to patients looking for doctors in their area. He strongly recommends patients with hard to diagnose or treat pituitary, thyroid or adrenal disorders to make an appointment to see him by phoning us at (310) 335-0327 ,or by sending us an email However, he recognizes that some patients are unable to travel to Los Angeles to see him. Therefore, he has compiled this list of physicians around the world that might be appropriate for patients to see. Dr. Friedman has trained with some of these physicians and others he has met at meetings. Good luck in achieving good hormone health.
