After starting his own practice, he performed over 500 hours of post-graduate continuing education to obtain his Fellowship in the Academy of General Dentistry (FAGD) in 1990. He is currently an attending doctor on staff and part-time clinical instructor at the Monmouth Medical Center .

Dr. Friedman keeps his finger on the pulse of dental technology by regularly taking dental continuing education courses (300% more than the NJ State Board of Dentistry requires.), subscribing to the International Dental Forum and staying current with dental literature. When he is not helping his patients, he can be found working on his 1972 MG-B or doing home repairs. He is active in scuba diving, skiing and ice skating with his family.
