After feeling poorly and having my symptoms dismissed by other doctors in the past, Dr. Frownfelter and her team treated me with compassion, thoughtfulness and and diligence. When I see Dr. Frownfelter, I feel like she truly cares for me as a person vs a quota. She took her time to get to know me, my family and the broader context of my life. When pursuing my symptoms, she developed an in-depth plan to determine the potential causes of my ailment, took me seriously and worked tirelessly to coordinate my care. She's incredibly smart and quite the detective.
When the root cause was finally uncovered and it was determined that surgery might be my best option, she counseled me not only about the physical pros and cons, but the broader implications as well, including looking after my mental health. After surgery she visited me twice at the hospital, spending time with my family and making sure I was well taken care of.
I can't fully express my gratitude for Dr. Frownfelter. She's the best doctor I've ever had and without her, I don't know that I'd be on the path to regaining my health. read more
