Dr. David Franko, MD

I am writing to express my long standing appreciation for your care and expertise as a patient of Dr. Franko's. His professionalism and willingness to address my concerns is truly commendable. However, I am writing today with some significant concerns regarding the scheduling process and communication within your office. Following a recent emergency room visit to Mather Hospital which necessitated an emergency CT scan and MRI, my neurologist on a follow up visit urgently recommended I schedule an appointment with my cardiologist for further testing due to dizziness I've been experiencing whenever I stand up too quickly from a seated or lying position. Attempts to schedule this appointment with your office proved incredibly frustrating. The prolonged wait times on the phone, coupled with the eventual notification of unavailability until June were deeply concerning. Furthermore, my experience with your sec. Sheryl, was equally disappointing. If she hates her job so much perhaps...

Dr. Franko rushed the appointment. Sent my family member for an unnecessary procedure, Did not counsel patient or family members on condition or treatment options.His staff is unhelpful and unprofessional. Do not return calls.Show no care or concern for their patients.

The office staff was very helpful, the medical staff very caring and Dr. Franko was extremely professional. Dr. Franko took his time to review my file, ask me questions, examine me and explain what was going on with my heart. As I was very nervous, never had a heart condition prior, he was thoughtful and caring in his dialog and gave me a list of do's and don't and put into perspective that my issue was not something to worry about. He made sure to set an appointment for follow up and told me to call at anytime if I wasn't feeling well or had any questions. I would definitely recommend Dr. Franko to anyone seeking a knowledgeable, caring cardiologist.

He’s been my doctor for 15+ years, and I always feel I’m getting the best care and advice.
