Went to Health express Friday 9/6 after a bad fall on a concrete sidewalk. Left with a dx of broken thumb and wrist pain and told to f/u with ortho. Saw Dr. Frechette 9/9. He was pleasant.... and reviewed the health express xrays. They were wrong! No break! Dr. Frechette explained to split for 2 weeks and then f/u but that I should be good as new soon. He was calming, pleasant and thorough

Dr Frechette has a very nice way about him. He listened to my concerns and made me feel very comfortable on what to do regarding my hand. He was very professional and answered all my questions. I had a cortisone injection in my wrist and it is feeling much better. I would highly recommended Dr frechette if you are having trouble with your hand.

I recently had the pleasure of being treated by Dr. Frechette for a broken hand, and I couldn't be more impressed with the care I received. From the initial consultation to the final check-up, Dr. Frechette was incredibly knowledgeable, compassionate, and attentive. He took the time to explain my injury in detail and laid out a clear and effective treatment plan. Thanks to Dr. and their amazing team, I am now fully healed and back to my regular activities. I highly recommend Dr. Frechette to anyone in need of specialized hand care! Shout out to Donna Wall his cast specialist who did an amazing job on the cast aspect of my recovery!

Why are medical services becoming so frustrating? You’re given a form to complete online as pre checkin. That is completed and then on arrival you have to complete the exact same form with similar answers in writing. Why? Then when the nurse checks you in she asks the exact same questions that you already completed online and in writing and rather than reading it she needs the answers again. Why? Then when you finally get to see the actual doctor he has no knowledge of your medical history that was provided and refer you to someone else. Couldn’t all this be avoided by just reviewing the documentation prior to the appointment and not wasting hours? So inefficient. And all this time is billed at exorbitant fees and could’ve been avoided altogether. Is asking for efficient cost effective medical care such an outrageous request?

First time in this practice, everyone was very nice. The Dr was kind and caring, fortunately my hand is not broken, so no further treatment required, beyond a follow up in a 2 weeks. I will definitely use this practice for any orthopedic needs I may need.
