He does steriod injections in my thumb which reallly helps with my arthritis. He is good at what he does and kind.

Overall Rating: 5.0 2025-05-13

I had surgery on both my 4th and 5th metacarpals. I have never gone through surgery before, so I was walked through the process ahead of time and had no complications coming out of surgery. My hand has healed nearly perfectly and willl be back to normal (hopefully) soon! Dr. Froelich is a very pleasant and gentle person; any questions were answered promptly and he genuinely focused on my personal comfortability and limits through everything. I would 100% recommend him to anyone in need!

Overall Rating: 5.0 2025-03-22

Dr Froelich is an amazing surgeon! Very caring and informative. He answered my concerns and questions.
