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.

Beyond excellent, Dr. DeFrank is friendly thoughtful and thorough. I've never mined waiting to be seen because I know I get the same attention he gives all he's patient's when I get in the exam room. Dr. DeFrank will certainly be a loss to the community and his patients as he enters a well deserved retirement. He will be hard to replace.

Excellent Doctor. Been seeing him for years. He is no longer part of my insurance plan but I still see him and pay cash to do it. He takes his time and listens to all your concerns. He is a scolar and a gentleman.

Came for a physical examination which my insurance requires to get a break on the policy premium and covers in full. He performed nothing but a physical, charged my insurance as a regular visit. I had to pay $400 for blood test, owe him $215 and still did not get my physical. Stuff is rude and inattentive.

My husband and I are both patients of Dr. DeFrank and are very happy with our experience with him. He takes time to get to know you, listens to all your questions and concerns and takes time talking to you about them. He reviews all tests and explains everything so that you understand. We respect and appreciate him and feel blessed to have him as our doctor.

Doctor took over two hours for me to see him. Very thorough, but still took another hour to hour and a half to see me. I don't have an entire day to see one doctor. Speed up your practice. I do have a life besides seeing a PCP. Will be my last time coming here
