Wow! I visited Dr. Franklin for the very first time after my primary care Wellstar physician was transferred to another location, and I was extremely nervous about changing doctors. My previous doctor had challenged me to take better care of my health-and I did. From the moment I arrived, I was warmly greeted by Dr. Franklin's assistant, who was incredibly kind and welcoming and immediately set the tone for the visit. When I met Dr. Franklin, I was truly impressed by how kind, caring, competent, and attentive she was. She listened carefully, showed genuine concern, and made it clear that she was focused on providing the best possible care. Most importantly, she also challenged me to take responsibility for my own health-and I appreciated that. I left the appointment feeling encouraged and excited about my health journey, which now includes both nutritional and medical care. I'm motivated to show improvement at my follow-up visit in 30 days. Thank you, Wellstar, and thank you so much, Dr. Franklin. Please don't transfer! ?

Wow! I visited Dr. Franklin for the very first time after my primary care Wellstar physician was transferred to another location, and I was extremely nervous about changing doctors. My previous doctor had challenged me to take better care of my health-and I did. From the moment I arrived, I was warmly greeted by Dr. Franklin's assistant, who was incredibly kind and welcoming and immediately set the tone for the visit. When I met Dr. Franklin, I was truly impressed by how kind, caring, competent, and attentive she was. She listened carefully, showed genuine concern, and made it clear that she was focused on providing the best possible care. Most importantly, she also challenged me to take responsibility for my own health-and I appreciated that. I left the appointment feeling encouraged and excited about my health journey, which now includes both nutritional and medical care. I'm motivated to show improvement at my follow-up visit in 30 days. Thank you, Wellstar, and thank you so much, Dr. Franklin. Please don't transfer! ?
