This is a great Doctor. I have known him for 20 years and would recommend him highly.

Dr. Frederickson is one of the most intelligent and caring doctors that I know and I'm lucky to have been a patient of his for about 25 years. Anyone in the Clayton area would be extremely fortunate to have his for a physician.
