No need to worry - w anticipate such things - our Columbus 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.

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.

I came from Los Angeles for plastic surgery at CG Cosmetics in Coral Gables, and MyFredy made the whole process stress-free. They provided round-trip service, waited at the clinic, and even picked up my prescriptions during surgery so there were no delays in recovery. Professional, reliable, and such a relief when you don’t have local support.

myfredy is awesome!!! didn’t think places like this existed until I found myfredy. never had a need for a medical escort because my family has always been able to take me to all my medical appointments. However, I just moved into the Jorge area by myself and I have no friends here, no family. Nobody who is able to help me out. I had a dental procedure today & my fredy was jonathan & he was WONDERFUL. he offered to stop at the store on the way there & on the way back for me! asked if i was hungry after because he knew i hadn’t eaten bc of my procedure. He even called me a few hours after he dropped me off just to check in on me. I truthfully don’t think any other medical escort company would do that. And he personally called me himself. when I first called to set it up, he answered on the first ring, no automated message. Super easy to work with, and he gave me the link to book for the appointment. The website was super user-friendly. i’ll be booking again for the end of the month for another procedure that I have, and any other medical appointments where I need sedation in the future. going forward, myfredy will be my go to!!!!
