    Dr. Frame is a great provider. I feel listened to, understood, and we have discussions about what my options are. When medications are suggested, she answers all my questions and does not just send me on my way with a prescription. She asks me what I think and if I want to try things and explains why she is prescribing what she is. I appreciate her.

    Dr. Frame has always been an outstanding provider in my experience. She has treated me for some challenging diagnoses and has always been honest and reassuring of her expertise. If she doesn't know an answer to something, she is up front about it, and always works with other colleagues to find the answer. I appreciate her kindness in her care and how well she knows my complex case. She answers every question I bring up. She makes sure I have all her support even when I'm seeing other specialists we get referred to. The support she provides makes a huge difference in my care. It is appreciated. She is always easy to contact any time I have questions. Her staff is great at assisting where they can, but they always keep her involved with my care. I would recommend Dr. Frame and her entire team to anyone.
