Dr. Karsten Fryburg, MD

He is an absolute amazing doctor and surgeon with excellent bedside manner and extensive knowledge in his field of medicine. He got me in within a day of my referral and surgery was just a few weeks later. He was able to quickly correct a problem I had been suffering with for a very long time. My only negative was I did not care for the hospital’s post op treatment which doesn’t reflect on the doctor himself. I would definitely recommend him.

I've been Dr. Fryburg's patient since 2016 and he is hands down the best physician I've been unders care. My first visit with Dr Fryburg he entered the room, introduced himself, and went to open his computer to show me his prognosis. The computer was down yet even though it was our first meeting he picked up a model spine and was able to tell me all of my troubling spots and why they were bothering me, again this was my first time meeting him. Dr. Fryburg is extremely professional, knowledgeable, and comes across as understanding, a trait that is often hard to find among physicians.

VERY personable, great at educating and also listening. Good sense of humor. I really enjoyed meeting him and benefiting from his knowledge!

Final visit nine weeks after surgery.

He was kind, really listened to my concerns. Was able to gain understanding of what is going on with my back.

Follow up for my recovery from spinal surgery

Dr Fryburg and staff were polite and professional. Dr spent almost an hour interviewing, examining, explaining my condition and addressing my concerns. Easy to talk to and kind gentleman. Very thorough. Franciscan is a wonderful facility.

I thought Dr. Fryburg and staff were personable, caring, and very thorough. I felt they really cared about finding the solution that best fit my needs.

He listened, but I don't think he REALLY HEARD!

Wow what a great man! I was really concerned about my back he made me feel I was ok and gave me suggestions as to how best to protect my back. I’m a farmer so constantly working my back. Doc found something else others missed so we need testing to see if further medical attention is necessary. So glad I had a consult with Dr. Fryburg!!!!

Personally I have never seen Dr. Fryburg. However, my Daughter worked for him for almost 3 years. She had great respect for him. She told me that undoubtedly if I ever needed surgery on my back, that I should see Dr. Fryburg. She said he truly cares for his patients and takes a lot of time with each one. Allowing them to ask questions and wanted them to know exactly what he would be doing during their surgery. He always treated my Daughter with kindness and she learned so much from him. He is not only a great Surgeon, he is a wonderful caring human being.

Dr. Fryburg has done my last 3 surgeries including 2 different levels of fusions. There is no one I trust more with my care than Dr. Fryburg. And his staff is the utmost professional.

Dr Fryburg and his PA Barb Bowers are incredible! They were very open about the surgery, and great follow-up. Highly recommend!

Just did an ACDF, & he was very informative, compassionate, & thorough. He called a few days after to check on me. I'll never see another neurosurgeon again!! Best, staff, hospital & experience I've ever had.

Dr Fryburg is wonderful! For the first time in 3 years I have very little pain. I am 3.5 months post op 3 level acdf fusion. Scar is minimal and fading. The whole staff is great.

Caring,, patient and very concerned. You can tell he has great concern for his patients.

Dr. Fryburg was a kind man and very good at explaining things and answering endless questions my daughter had. He took plenty of time with us to make sure we understood.
