Meet Joel Friedlander, DO
I believe in providing care for children and their families in an informative and collaborative method. I strive to bring a healing sense of humor and fun to the practice of pediatric gastroenterology."I like to have a good time, I like to joke around, and I want to make sure you understand everything about your condition by the time that you leave."
- Dr. Joel Friedlander

I take a special interest in helping individuals with inflammatory bowel disease, reflux, esophagitis, aerodigestive disorders, failure to thrive, and children that need endoscopic procedures performed.
