Jeffrey P. Friedman, MD

As an internist at NYU Langone, I focus on preventive care to help my patients maintain optimal health and well-being. My passion for medicine began at a young age, inspired by a fascination with science and a desire to help others. I find great satisfaction in diagnosing complex conditions and witnessing the positive outcomes of effective treatment.

I specialize in managing various chronic conditions, including cardiac, pulmonary, endocrine, obesity, and infectious diseases. With over thirty five years of experience in internal medicine, I have refined my skills in diagnosing and treating a wide range of medical issues. My extensive training and years of practice have equipped me with the expertise to provide high-quality care. I take particular pride in caring for multiple generations within the same family, fostering long-term relationships and continuity of care.

My commitment to patient engagement and responsiveness ensures my patients feel heard and supported. At NYU Langone, I collaborate with specialists to provide coordinated and seamless care, enhancing the overall patient experience.

My health challenges with asthma and the dedication of my pediatrician inspired me to pursue a career in medicine. These early encounters with healthcare professionals motivated me to enter the field. I chose internal medicine because it allows me to manage various disease processes and continuously challenge myself. My educational background and lifelong passion for science have shaped my approach to patient care, making me a trusted and reliable physician for my patients.
