Medical Procedure Companions & Transportation in Asheville for Endoscopy Procedures and Other Outpatient Surgeries
Book Risk Free — Schedule Changes Expected and Always Free.
Patients in Asheville and Western North Carolina are often required by their providers to have a trusted adult accompany them for outpatient procedures. This includes arrival, on-site waiting, and discharge—steps that can’t be completed alone. For many, that requirement becomes a barrier when friends or family aren’t available to take an entire day off.
MyFredy fills that gap by providing professional medical procedure companions who meet provider requirements and support patients through the entire process. We arrive on time, wait on-site until discharge, and ensure a safe return home with private transportation included. Whether your procedure is at a surgery center, specialty clinic, or hospital outpatient department, you can count on MyFredy for reliable, compliant support from start to finish.
Why Choose MyFredy in Asheville▾
Peace of Mind
Our clients in Asheville often talk about how our medical companion service offers them peace of mind and lowers their anxiety in the days prior to and on the day of procedure. Unlike a friend or family member, it is our profession to be there when and where you need us and to be helpful thorough the process.
Avoid Delays & Cancellations
Providers in Asheville will likely cancel your procedure if you show up without your trusted adult companion. MyFredy Medical Procedure Companions is a professional service that allows you to book your appointments with peace of mind that you will have someone to take you and bring you home while meeting your doctor's requirements.
Trusted & Reliable in Asheville
MyFredy is known at most Asheville hospitals, clinics, and surgery centers. We understand their requirements for a "Trusted Adult" to accompany you. They know we arrive on-time, wait patiently on-site, and are ready to support their discharge procedures.
Private & Discreet Transportation
Our MyFredy Medical Procedure Companions in Asheville provide safe and private transportation in late model cars and SUVs. Our cars are not wrapped or include any signage. Our full service includes round trip service and our Discharge Home Service is one way from the facility (requires provider approval that you can arrive solo).
Trusted & Compliant:▾
MyFredy is trusted by patients and providers because we operate to the same professional and legal standards that outpatient facilities depend on. In North Carolina, when a patient receives anesthesia or sedation, a responsible adult must be present to accompany them before and after the procedure. MyFredy fulfills that obligation with a level of accountability and reliability that goes far beyond a simple ride service.
Each assignment includes on-site presence from check-in through discharge, with the Fredy remaining in communication with clinic staff and available for updates. Every Fredy is background-checked, insured, and trained in post-operative protocol awareness, confidentiality, and provider communication standards. Our liability coverage, verification processes, and professional code of conduct give both patients and facilities complete confidence that every handoff will meet compliance requirements.
That is why providers across the country recognize MyFredy as a trusted, compliant solution—one that protects patient safety, supports clinical workflows, and ensures no procedure is delayed for lack of a responsible adult.

FAQs: Asheville Medical Companions▾
What if my Asheville Doctor won't provide an exact time till the day before?
This is very common with some procedures including plastic surgery in Asheville where they conduct pre-op consultations the day prior and then set the procedure and arrival times. MyFredy is built for this with flexible scheduling and no-fee adjustments. When booking, set a placeholder time such as 7am and make a note in the note field.
What if my Asheville medical appointment takes longer than I booked?
No need to worry - w anticipate such things - our Asheville Medical Procedure Companions stay on-site for as long as it takes in cases where the provider is running late or if procedures are taking more time than usual. Any overages will simply be billed after the fact.
What if I need to change the date or time of my appointment?
Our Medical Procedure Companion service in Asheville provides no-fee schedule changes. Simply call or email us to adjust the date, time, or any other details in your booking.

For medical procedures, this is a great service to get to and from and have the “responsible person” requirement fulfilled. Great customer service and will definitely use again.
From the ease of scheduling the appointment to the actual professionalism on the day of service is top-notch. I feel confident in using My Fredy services again. I will recommend to others. Thank you
I got an open dental surgery appointment due to a cancellation. No one to take me. Found MyFredy through Google. Spoke with Jonathan . Set my appointment online. Paid in full online to take advantage of discount. Jonathan was early, friendly, and invested in helping me. He even followed up with a call later that night to check on me. 10 out of 10
Extremely professional, prompt, and helpful. A worry free way to make it to an appointment that required a driver. Cannot say enough good things about the whole experience.
I can’t say enough good things about my experience using this service. I wasn’t familiar with the service and it was my first time using it. But the level of professionalism, timeliness and care exceeded my expectations. Knowledgeable and reliable.
Every step, from initial contact to scheduling to the transportation with the driver remaining on site to the drive home and to even follow up call from Jonathan expressing concern, I found MyFredy a godsend
I had a procedure that required an escort. Very happy I chose MyFredy. Professional, kind and reliable. Great communication on the whole process. Would highly recommend
I was assisted by MyFredy in helping a family member return home from a surgical procedure and an overnight stay in the hospital. The person picking him up was thorough and thoughtful. He was dependable and compassionate. I felt confident that the family member was well cared for and protected. Thank you Myfredy for your professional service. I also appreciated your straight forward approach to your charges. I understood what the fee was and that’s what the charge was. I would be happy to recommend MyFredy.
I had an excellent experience with MyFredy this morning.He was in control and efficient. This is my first experience with a medical escort and I was very anxious, but this anxiety disappeared as soon as I met him. Thank you so much.
This is a fantastic service for anyone in need of a medical escort for select outpatient appointments. I wouldn’t have been able to have mine if it weren’t for MyFredy. Easy to book and fair pricing. Recommend!
I relocated to Atlanta and didn't know anyone but needed to have an outpatient medical procedure under anesthesia within 3 weeks and needed a driver. I found MyFredy and it was the ONLY service that would stay while I underwent the procedure. Jonathan's communication was exceptional, he was early on the day of the procedure, affable and a great conversationalist, and respected my privacy. I'm grateful for this business. Several will take and pick up but I couldn't find any that will stay with a person during an appointment. I had met my insurance deductible for the year and being able to find this business so I didn't have to pay for the procedure by scheduling in a new calendar year saved me thousands. So glad he found a niche and making a difference.
I almost canceled my appointment because I needed someone to wait for me
Last minute my boyfriend couldn’t take me to my colonoscopy. I found MyFreddy and Jonathan was the perfect solution! He was kind, friendly and very helpful! And it was good I went in when I did because I needed additional treatment. Could not recommend more highly!

Most clinics won’t allow it. They need to confirm you’re leaving with a trusted adult who can stay with you post-procedure—rideshare drivers don’t qualify.
What if I don’t have anyone to go with me?
That’s exactly what we’re here for. When family or friends aren’t available, MyFredy sends someone reliable to meet the clinic’s requirements and make sure you get home safely.
How is this different from a rideshare?
We’re not just a ride. Your Fredy waits on-site during the procedure and helps with next steps. Clinics approve this—unlike a random driver.
Do I need to book in advance?
Yes, it’s best to reserve early to ensure coverage. Most bookings are made 3–7 days ahead of the procedure.
