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.

The most HORRIBLE office to deal with!! Seems Dr. Frechette doesn’t get messages timely, they screwed up a renewal for a prescription and sent to wrong pharmacy, took three phone calls and approximately TWO weeks to get it sent to appropriate pharmacy. Not very available or accommodating. The staff does not seem like they even care. Same line every time “will leave a message” “waiting for doctor to sign off on it”………ridiculous and frustrating. Not saying Dr. Frechette isn’t a good doctor

No challenge to Dr. Frechette's competence or personality, but actually getting to see and/or talk to him is a challenge in itself. Problems at his office include lost prescriptions, unanswered inquiries and failure to follow up on referrals. Dealing with University Internists is a disaster. Dr. Frechette may have now idea how poorly things are being run, but that itself is troubling.

Very nice doctor., good knowledge .,difficulty however in securing referrals to a specialist ., here is the however staff is not accomodating., in fact condescending may be the choice .to request medical information as lab results or to speak to a doctor is very difficult .. No user friendly patient portal for immediate lab results etc.... Finally.., I want to see the doc not a PA..
