How likely are you to recommend Dr. Defranco?
I can't say enough about the concern and care I received from Dr. Defranco in the emergency room on 6/25 He listened to all my concerns and he did all he could to alleviate my severe pain and ease my fear. I feel blessed that he was on duty when I arrived at PMC - my prayer for today is that anyone in need of a GREAT DOCTOR who is thorough , compassionate, and caring have the opportunity to be seen by him
