Friendly and knowledgable staff.
Staff was comforting and discreet with regard to the sensitivity of the medical condition.
Dr. Simons is a great listener, he takes time to educate, he is thorough and direct. I appreciate and respect his care.
I will be recommending the doctor to my husband
I have a sense of humor and it shows, Dr. Frankhouse I'm sure noticed this and responded in a way that I truly liked. He was enjoyable to me as my surgeon even though my condition was considered serious.
This was one of the best physician experiences I have had. I have been to other doctors three times for this health Issue without resolution. At this point, It appears Dr. Frankhouse has resolved the Issue In a half hour visit. His bedside manner and expertise Is the best. His nurse or MA Is also very good as Is the front desk staff. This was a sensitive medical issue that I had almost given up on getting a resolution after three strike outs. I am grateful to have found Dr. Frankhouse.
Extremely knowledgable and thoughtful doctor and staff. Put me at ease while I was in extreme pain and got me into the office next day. Above and beyond!
All good
Was fast & easy. All employees were helpful & friendly.
The receptionist were very friendly, kind, knowledgeable, helpful, and happy!
The doctor I was referred to was booked. Alternate doctors in the practice were offered to me as an option. This visit was the first time seeing this doctor. He was extremely knowledgable of his practice specialty.
I respect and trust Dr. Frankhouse. He explains everything to me so I understand exactly what he is talking about. I am so fortunate he is my doctor.
I have seen this provider in the past and he was soft-spoken and very kind. At this visit he was very loud and rude did not listen. He was not caring. I will never use him or anyone in that practice ever again.
Dr. Simons is exceedingly clear in his explanations---and decent and real given the nature of what it is he's examining! I feel great trust, I feel I have an ally in what is rather concerning condition and just hope he continues at Legacy because he is a very, VERY good doctor that I look forward to seeing each time. Please recognize that in him, you (Legacy) **HAVE** a very, very good doctor. Thank him, please-----
They make it easier to talk about (embarrassing) body disfunction. Solutions and advice are clear and reassuring. Thankful for recent successful surgery with this provider.
THIS WAS A FIRST VISIT AND MY PROBLEM WAS RESOLVED
The folks in the office were excellent. Very friendly and helpful. Virtually no wait time. Dr. Simons was excellent as always.
I requested my care provider to make the appt.
Overall excellent experience
Very friendly discussion and my nerves were put at ease.
Dr Frankhouse is amazing he has taken great care of me thru surgery and after.
He's a great Doc
This was my first time seeing this Dr. Everyone was friendly and professional.
I was told by my PCP I might have Crohn's and I need a colonoscopy. I scheduled with legacy because I work there and have their insurance. The doctor kept lecturing me to eat more fiber and didn't believe me when I said fiber makes my symptoms worse. He prescribed me cream for muscle spasms and sent me on my way. I'm still nervous I might have Crohn's and what to do.
The doctor and everyone there was very professional and knowledgeable
DR. Butler is a Fantastic DR...
My husband and I were very pleased with Dr. Frankhouse. He was very thorough and explained things in a way we could understand. He brought up questions that we had not considered before. We were very comfortable with his plan going forward.
Dr. Simmons and staff were professionally courteous, helpful, welcoming, and wonderful in information and care.
I find Dr. Frank House and his staff to all go out of their way to be professional and polite. I felt the doctor is very knowledgeable on my health problems that I came in for.
