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.

Dr. Franklin is one of the best.
Dr. Franklin was very warm and comforting. She made me feel that she would have taken all day answering questions about my upcoming procedure if that's what I needed and that no question was too big or small. The day of my procedure she noticed my nerves and quickly went to reassuring me. Her bedside manner was the best and very refreshing in a world where I tend to feel like another number. I will recommend Dr. Franklin to my own daughters.

So it had been several years since I have gone to the gynecologist mainly well because everyone hates going. But for a 50 year old woman to have to sit someone two hours waiting for a scan of her lower pelvis due to a pain issue is crazy. I specifically questioned how long of a wait it would be 15 minutes was the response still was waiting an hour later. Just not cool.

Her lack of concern for the safety mom and baby will either cause you to loose your child our them be seriously injured do not use her. She will lie to your face and tell you everything is fine when really she sees red flags telling her to do more.

I never felt that Dr. Franklin actually cared about me as a patient. I had an issue with low platelets which threatened my ability to get an epidural during labor. A week before my due date we decided I would begin a steroid in an attempt to bring my platelet count up. I went to pick it up the next day, after she was supposed to call it in, and the pharmacy had no idea what I was talking about. I felt she obviously didn't care so she conveniently forgot to call it in.
