    Dr. Michael Franklin was very thorough, more than any other doctor I have ever seen. He went over all, ALL, my medical history asking questions and connecting dots before physically examining me. After that, he ordered the tests he deemed necessary for me and told me when to go back to see him. Not only that, he wrote down, by hand, the 2 prescriptions he gave me, how to take them, what tests I have to have and why, what he thinks I have, why Im hurting so much, and what to expect. Again, no doctor has ever been this thorough with me and I really appreciate it.
