In patients' words

"The best PCP in this town! He is warm, caring, extremely knowledgeable, doesn't rush his patients and actually listens."

— Patient review of Dr. Terry L. Franklin

"It was the worst experience I have ever had with a doctor. Dr. Kozal showed little concern or respect for me as a patient."

— Patient review of Dr. Jared Kozal

"Dr. Franklin decided to cancel my appt after I had already arrived... Staff advised to “not take it personally” as he was “in a bad mood” from a previous patient."

— Patient review of Dr. Peter E. Franklin

"Doctor will work with you, listens, gets testing done, and finds root of problem... A doctor with a big heart and has helped me and my family for many years."
