Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

We have been with Dr. Franceshina for about 20 years and I can hands down he is the best. He will listen and explain everything to you . he treats you like a person not a number. You can not go wrong .

As a doctor Dr. Francischina is great. Western Ct Medical Group is the worst. They force the doctors to 'treat them and street them' as fast as possible. I really felt like I was a farm animal. "Get the cattle in the shoot, one by one and get 'em out". More than 5 week wait for an appointment. I AM A HUMAN.

Very competent, easy to talk to and down to earth, did not lecture me about not seeing a doctor for years. His nurse was also great. I highly recommend him.

A great doctor under serious pressure from the Hospital to see far more patients than he should. Not his fault. Also the hospital now requires all blood work be done AFTER the appointment so they can call you back for Visit #2 to discuss. All about the $$$$.
