Dr. Frantz is excited to return to the Wichita orthopedic community where she will offer services in hand and upper extremity surgery. She has a special interest in congenital and pediatric hand surgery and well as treating sports and work related injuries in addition to the wide breadth of hand surgery. She will also serve the community with treating patients through hand trauma call. She will be seeing patients at the east side Hand Center as well as the west Wichita location.

Friendly, knowledgeable and genuinely cares.
I have never been so disrespected at any apt ever in my life. She never read my file, she didn’t even know I was female she yelled entering the room where is “he” I’m here… where did he go? looking at me as if I’m in the wrong room. She proceeded to laugh when I told her about my previous surgery and who my doctor was, she never let me speak. She was too proud to say that she messed up on my name that she was in the right room. She bruise my whole arm, tapping it saying I don’t have carpal tunnel and then told me my surgery I had with my previous doctor wasn’t even real. Lisa kept telling me to go somewhere closer to home to get my stuff done. I barely got to speak at my own apt.Next she yelled at me asking why “I shut down completely”. Quote “what is wrong what is the problem isn’t this what u want isn’t this enough for you?” At this point I decided to walk out on the most degrading apt ever with Lisa Frantz. Last she spoke what the hell as I left .I would never suggest her to anyone.
Very friemdly
Dr Franz always gives me clear expectations and explains my issues in easily understood language resulting in more than satisfactory results.
Very knowledgeable dr knew exactly what needed to be done for my injury
Explains everything thoroughly & to patient's understanding.
She was amazing with my daughter! Would highly recommend her!
Great care!
This doctor says one thing then turns around and changes her mind over a work injury like the work comp people are paying her to don’t do what she has said needs done.
I was very happy with her thanks
