Robert M. Friedmeyer, MD

"Probably the worst experience I've ever had with a doctor. I had to take my 13 month old baby due to congestion and cough. Unfortunately his regular doctor didn't have an opening to see him right away so I agreed for a different doctor to see him. As soon as Dr. Friedmeyer entered the room, I could tell he was not friendly one bit. I greeted him and received no response, I figured maybe he didn't hear me. Then I started to make small talk to avoid that awkward silence but he was not having any of it. I could tell he was not feeling good because he had a horrible cough and if you are asking yourself if he had a mask HE DIDN'T! You would think he would be a little bit more considerate since he is treating kids but no, he obviously did not care to spread whatever he had to others. When it was time to examine my son he asked me to place him on the bed and my son got upset. He didn't try for one second to engage with my son so that he could gain his trust, instead he forcedly pushed my son to get him to sit still. He held my son so aggressively and was getting so upset because my son was hysterically crying. I grabbed my son and pulled him away and he raised his voice at me asking me to grab my son so that he could do his work. At this point I held my son and decided to leave. I was not going to allow someone to treat my son this way nor to talk to me that way. I am a paying customer and demand to be treated with respect. If he wasn't feeling good he should've stayed home. THIS DOCTOR SHOULD NOT BE WORKING WITH KIDS! I reported this incident to Baycare because no parent or kid should be treated this way. The office manager was able to have his regular doctor see my son that day which it was a relief. Doctor Dekle is a God sent! She is patient, caring, friendly and she is AMAZING with kids. If it wasn't for her I would immediately be taking my son to a different doctor. I really hope that Baycare takes my concerns seriously."

"We have moved a lot due to military and I have to say Dr. Fredmeyer is one of the top 2 best pediatricians we have ever seen! He was awesome with both my kids. Including my special needs daughter who normally fights doctor visits but she let him check her out completely without a fight."

"Dr. Friedmeyer remains the most knowledgeable and thorough doctor in the area. He’s followed my children since birth, and as a healthcare provider and mother, I highly recommend him to any parent seeking a pediatric primary care physician."

"Doctor FRIEDMEYER has been our doctor since 2004. We didn’t know we were seeing him, we actually had been recommended to the doctor that he took over for. And I’m so glad he did. He is so calm. So informative. He was right by our side through the diagnosis of autism with our son. He has been there for us when we adopted our two little guys as well. We feel blessed we accidentally found our “Forever” pediatrician. I couldn’t imagine this life without him!"

"Love the new office. Staff is great, My daughter's been seeing Dr. Friedmeyer 15 yrs and feels very comfortable talking to him. He ask her questions directly even at 4. He's Wonderful and treats her as an individual that can speak for her own body and feelings."
