He was very interested in my point of view, explained my x-rays, suggested PT and Celebrex and made me feel like I mattered.

I’ve seen 4 surgeons regarding my rotator cuff that’s 75% partial tear. He gave me the best advice. He was attentive to my life style and my career. Not only did he give me the best medical advice he gave me much needed life advice too. This app was a relief and although we don’t know what the future holds I’m prepared to adjust my life style to maintain my shoulder. Very happy I drove from Orlando to meet Dr. Frankle.
