Dr. Frank Chrzanowski, MD

I made an after hours urgent call for which he was the doctor on call. He seemed aggrevated that he was being called and showed absolutely no concern for my condition. It honestly is making me feel more worried and stressed after speaking to him.

I was referred to Dr Chrzanowski for a very serious colon cancer issue. He did an amazing job! Although the process was very scary, he always kept my quality of life in the forefront. He very well could have justified removing my entire colon, but he didn't. Dr Chrzanowski is personable and has a reverent sense of humor, which is refreshing in a difficult situation. He is committed to the best care he can give. I will never see another surgeon for my colon issues. My wife and daughter are his number one fans!

Visited Dr. Chrzanowski only once but found his style to be very thorough. He devoted the first 15 minutes to discussion and questions so he could completely understand my concerns and symptoms. After an exam, he spent another 15 minutes summating my symptoms and discussing the possibilities of what could be the root of my problem. He provided a written summary of my next steps and then posted a complete report that day to the Athena Health site. Again, very thorough and focused on understanding and explanation.

I have been with Dr. C for years. He gave the hard truth, for me me to make real decisions. His guidance and surgical skill changed my life for the better. The man is my hero!!!

I am a patient of Dr. Chrzanowski's. I would recommend him to my colleagues. Dr. Chrzanowski is very to the point, intelligent and well versed in treatment options/plans.

Dr. C is one of the worst doctors I have ever seen. There was absolutely no compassion, and he became more unpleasant that I had done my homework on my condition and had lots of questions. I found this Dr incredibly dismissive and patronizing. He was clueless about some of the potential treatments I wanted to discuss. Eventually he told me I needed to see another surgeon that was more well versed in the other treatments I wanted information on. I can not emphasize enough to avoid this Dr. He's rude and I had NO confidence in him.

Dr. C has been great . I can see why people think he is rude/ angry , but he is just super nonchalant . He is very knowledgeable and I trust his input . A lot of surgeons / doctors have horrible bed side matter .

Dr. C is an awesome doctor, treated me as if I was one of his very own family members, spent time discussing my diagnoses so that I could understand it and gave several options for treatment. He listened and was very caring. I definitely recommend him to anyone !!

If I could give zero stars I would. This man has an ugly temper that he brought into the room right from the getgo. He came in completely ignorant of our previous appointment and his own findings (or lack there of) and angry that I chose to do floor therapy with a doctor of my own choosing who is also with North Florida Network. Very sorry I went to him.

Dr.C is the absolute best! He has performed two surgeries on me already and I would not have any one else. He answers all of my questions and spends as much time as needed with me. He and his partner saved my life. He is always just a phone call away and truly cares about his patients. His staff is incredible as well.

We went to Dr. C as a "second opinion" and are so glad we did. My husband was told he was not a candidate for surgery to remove the tumor in his colon. Dr. C looked at the CT scan, discussed the situation with us and was positive that there was no problem in removing this tumor. He used robotics and removed the tumor and 18 inches of colon; reconnected the colon and now all is functioning properly. We asked for a quick surgery since we had wasted precious time with previous dr. Got it set up and done within 2 weeks. My husband is well on the road to recovery now with first follow up visit tomorrow. Thank God for this surgeon. He had no doubt that he could remove this tumor with a good result. So grateful for he and his staff. He made his rounds in hospital as scheduled and was as concerned about what was going on in the recovery as he was in getting the tumor removed. Can't say enough positive about him.

Dr. Chrzanowski and team performed my surgery for cancer removal. It was done by both laparoscopic and robotic means, which I believe made a tremendous difference in overall recovery. I was well-informed by the surgeon in the weeks leading up to the surgery, including possible complications (of which I had none). The doctor met with me several times, both before and after the operation, and always listened and answered my questions. He was there every day of my hospital stay to check on my status. The hospital provided a wound care nurse to help me, and also a connection to home health care for 3 weeks (covered by Medicare). It will be weeks before anyone is fully recovered after such a surgery and I am well on the way there. Dr. Chrzanowski is a caring and skilled doctor who I am so glad became my surgeon.

Dr. Chrzanowski cured me of a problem I had been dealing with for over 30 yrs . Both he and the staff were great in their treatment before and after my surgery . I will be forever grateful to the Doctor and everyone on the staff . I feel reborn .

very good Doctor. Easy to talk to and very good with my elderly dad. I would highly recommend him.

Heartless doctor.

I was diagnosed with colon cancer and went immediately to see Dr. C. We had a substantive discussion on my options and decided immediate surgery was the best course of action. The surgery was more complicated than expected due to a previous operation but Dr. C was entirely successful. He is a MASTER SURGEON and I would recommend him to ANYONE in need of Colon / Rectal surgery in the Jacksonville area. He gets my HIGHEST PRAISE as a surgical technician and for pre and post surgical care.

He is the most compassionate doctor I have ever had. He address all avenues to help you understand what is going on with your health. He help me get through a troubling time in my life. If it wasn't for the insurance (BCBS) problem, I would still be his patient. He listen to me and he would answer my husbands questions so he understand what was going on.
