Who is Jacob Fried?
Dr. Jacob Fried has been a fixer for as long as he can remember, breaking a problem down to its simplest parts, understanding exactly what’s wrong, and building it back up again. That instinct led him to otolaryngology, where he discovered he could combine two things he loves, the intellectual practice of medicine and the hands-on art of performing surgery. As a comprehensive care ENT, Dr. Fried treats patients of all ages, restoring quality of life through both medical and surgical management of ear, nose, and throat conditions.

His research on rhinologic disease and sleep quality has been published in journals including the American Journal of Rhinology & Allergy, Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery, and the International Forum of Allergy & Rhinology.

Reputation & Experience
Dr. Fried has always been known to his friends and colleagues as a good listener, one who believes he can learn as much from his patients as they learn from him. Rather than defaulting to a one-size-fits-all approach, he builds tailored treatment plans around each patient’s unique situation. Above all, he wants every patient to leave his office feeling heard, cared for, with their concerns validated.
