What to Expect
-
A consultation is required prior to your IV therapy treatment to determine if this is safe for you.
Please come to your IV therapy treatment fed and hydrated! Coming hydrated to your appointment sets us up for success in setting the catheter in your vein.
It’s best to avoid alcohol 24 hours prior to your treatment as alcohol can increase the risk for bruising.

The appointment itself typically takes about an hour.
After a brief medical history and physical exam, we will set the IV up through a vein in your arm; you will feel a small poke with the needle which will quickly subside. From then on, sit back and enjoy the treatment.
Feel free to bring a book or listen to music.

“Dr Friedman has changed my life. I'm so glad I found her. Have been going to her for a couple years. It is important to stay with the same person. I used to go to wherever the deals were. Finding Dr Friedman and working with her on some of my main issues has been great. The results are amazing. Highly recommend. She is a great listener and gives advice on what to do and not to do.”
