Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Completely misdiagnosed my problem and thought I needed a facelift and eye brow lift when I came in with ptosis and need that repaired.

I saw Dr. Frodel at the Guthrie Hospital in Sayre PA. First appointment was less than 10 minutes, he asked me about 5 questions. The second appointment was about 5 minutes and he didn't remember anything from the first appointment. The old man didn't even know how to use a camera to take pictures of my nose. He gave up taking pictures of my nose and said they weren't that important anyway. Plus his hands were shaking very badly. Also I have never had a doctor that ignored 3 of my messages on Eguthrie before. He just blatantly ignored 3 messaged of mine that were asking very simple straightforward perfectly reasonable questions. Plus the guy has had half-a-dozen different offices that I could find. I will not be letting this guy anywhere near my nose and neither should you.

Exceptional!! Another doc said my problem probably couldn’t be fixed, but if anyone could do it, it would be Dr Frodel! Was he ever right,Doctor Frodel fixed it and did a perfect job. It couldn’t have been a easy fix, since there was so much damage! He did an amazing job! He was always kind and courteous and explained everything to me so I could understand what was going on . Wish he was still there!! One of the greatest doctors.

Refused to speak to me after surgery regarding a problem. When I finally saw him 2 weeks later he lectured me and then when he examined me found my problem was real. He had left something blocking my nasal cavity that I could not breath through my nose for 2 weeks. No apology, just arogant.

About a year and a half ago, I had SeptoRhinoplasty performed by Dr. Frodel. The surgery was botched. Since my 'experience' with Dr. Frodel, I've had two other surgeries to repair the initial problem and fix Dr. Frodel's mess up.
