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.

Fantastic Dr
Dr. Frank was amazing. I’ve never had a doctor spend so much time with me on a visit explaining everything also alternative solutions.. I just honestly felt like he genuinely cared about my health and he kept saying his concern was. He did not want to see me again meaning he wanted to do everything he could to help me get better. I am an ultra runner and he even was able to tell her the perfect physical therapist for me. I would highly recommend this doctor.

Dr. Franks knows what he’s doing!
Just had a great visit with Dr. Franks for my son who is an elite athlete. He took the situation seriously and understood the assignment! He has a very direct bed side manner, which I very much appreciate, and he set my son up with the exact care that he needs. I’m so pleased with this experience that he will be the “go to” doc for my family’s orthopedic needs from now on. Highly recommend!!

Excellent AND Caring physician
To start I think I was in the waiting room four minutes before I got called back to see him, and in the room two minutes before he walked in. He greeted me and made me feel comfortable from the start. He explained that he was going to inject both of my knees, and how he was going to do it and with what he was going to do it with. He reviewed my allergies and then proceeded to do the procedure. It was very easy and he did not hurt me. we then talked about my future with continuing injections versus having knee replacements.he was talking to me as a friend and I left there feeling better about my knee situation than when I arrived.he’s a great guy and a great doctor!

Would reccomend Dr. Franks to anyone!
Rothman institute was 1ST CLASS! Everyone from the receptionist to the medical staff to Dr. Franks. Dr. Franks went out of his way to help my son out. First he squeezed us in for an appointment. He was very compassionate and took the time to explain everything to us. He made my son feel like family. I could tell Dr. Franks truly cared about my son's welfare even though we were from out of state. Dr. Franks went out of his way to find a Physical Therapist near us. Dr. Franks embodies great role model for anyone to aspire to be like. I even told my son, Dr. Franks is a great example of you should treat people. Thanks again DR. FRANKS!!

Since my first and he follow up visit, I can truly say that Dr. Frank's is very knowledgeable in his profession, he explains everything clearly and made me feel confident to trust him knee treatment, I had to do a knee injection and I was very anxious and close to cancel the appointment but I went and after he explained the process, I was calm and after he did it I was like okay that's it? Lol, after I got home that's when the pain started but it was expected as he already told me about the side effects and what to do to heal. He is a very excellent and attentive doctor.

I am in the health care field and know that I have many choices when it comes to my orthopedic issues locally. I have personally known Dr. Franks for 25 years (he was one of my medical students I taught at OLOL) and could not be prouder of a former student and now, "medical colleague"; he is personable, yet extremely knowledgeable; he knows I am an athlete and am looking for pain relief and the best outcome possible. He strives for making the patient aware of choices and is honest about the best outcomes for the individual patient. Given the degree of my Orthopedic issues, I will be keeping Rothman and Dr. Franks, in business for a long time! Great doctor!!!!
