Dr. Michael Jay Frank

Dr Frank does not try to sell you something that isn’t needed. I have calluses on my feet that cause pain, like a stone bruise. The Dr quickly shaves and grinds the calluses off and i have immediate relief. Another pediatric sold me costly shoe inserts and shoes that did nothing for me. I now have my father-in-law going to him as well. I highly recommend him.

He was patient and answered all my questions, and when I got to meet him in person, he was even more approachable and kind. He is very compassionate and explained what was happening along the way, which I found very reassuring. He was also gentle during the procedure and asked me for feedback which I appreciated. I recommend Dr. Frank.

Dr. Frank is a highly skilled surgeon - the surgery he performed was complicated in nature - and the outcome was outstanding. He shows great professionalism and compassion for his patients and addresses all your concerns or fears.

The staff is nice, the office is super clean, this is how all doctors offices should be. I will forever and always recommend this office, this doctor, and the staff for all their podiatry needs!

Excellent surgeon will not steer you wrong, everything is up front. Great follow up and patient friendly. Extremely professional. I’ve had many surgeries and would not hesitate to see Doctor Frank or any doctor in this practice. This practice accepts most major insurances and Tricare!

I've been going to see Dr. Frank on and off for about 5 years now. I started when the old office was off of Old Branch Ave. I wish all doctor visits where as great as seeing Dr. Frank. He is obviously very knowledgeable, and is amazing at explaining the issue and treatment options. He has a professional yet laid back demeanor that has always put me at ease.

I found Dr. Frank to be the quintessential doctor, I love Dr. Frank and his staff, they are so caring and professional! He told me what to expect up front and all went as planned. I followed his instructions and was out of the boot in five weeks. I would recommend Dr. Frank and Family Foot and Ankle to anyone. They did a beautiful job.

I have been a patient of Dr. Frank for 10+ years and have found him to be organized and focused on patients and their experience. I like the fact that Dr. Frank sees his patients in a timely manner. I also appreciate that he listens to whatever my foot issues are and proceeds with treatment efficiently.

Went to see Dr. Frank for pain in ball of my right foot. He said it was caused by loss of fat between my metatarsal and skin due to my age. He did not give me any guidance on how to care for it. His attitude was that, hey, you're old (78) so deal with it. Before sending me out the door he handed me a couple of cheap foot pads but provided no guidance on how to use them or where to place them. He didn't even tell me if they should be stuck to my foot or to my shoe insole. Since my appointment I have learned much more online that I did from my office visit. He did not document my visit online or send a report to my primary care physician who referred me, which is customary protocol for specialists. I've seen a lot of doctors in my long life and this was by far my worst experience with a doctor's office visit.

Dr. Frank's amazing staff fit me in for a consultation the day I called. I was in horrible pain. Dr Frank took one look at my problem told me what was wrong and I that needed surgery. He is straight forward, explained every step of the process that was needed in detail. He is knowledgeable, skilled, and a wonderful Doctor along with being pleasant and caring. He put me at ease along with treating me with respect.

I have had nothing but a positive experience with every appointment. Dr. Frank described the steps to take for my foot surgery. The timeline was accurate and the recovery was exactly as explained. I'm very happy with the outcome of the surgery/recovery.

First visit recently & was very impressed with Dr. Frank - wish he had been in practice when I had bunion surgery many years ago, I think I would have had a much better experience & outcome -but so glad to have found him now!!

Very appreciative of the fact I was able to see this doctor on a Saturday. I would highly recommend him to others in need of a great foot doctor.

Great service by a well respected Foot And Ankle surgeon.

My first surgery with him went very well. I appreciated his calm and professional demeanor. He sets the bar high and that is the key reason why I’m coming back to him to correct my other foot. I would highly recommend him.

Dr. Frank was friendly and efficient with my 13 year old daughter who suffered from ingrown toenails in both her big toes. The appointment was for a consult but he suggested we take care of it now. His calm and kind demeanor helped my daughter remain calm during the procedure, which had us in and out of the office in less than an hour. Both of us were relieved to have the procedure done.

Dr. Frank was awesome. Easy to talk to, very knowledgeable, extremely friendly and caring. I appreciate the time the doctor spent with me, very helpful advice.

The best in his field! Dr. Frank made me feel at ease during such a stressful time. I highly recommend him and his practice.

I was referred to Dr. Frank by my family doctor. Every visit was pleasant and thorough. The surgery went well and I feel a vast improvement after surgery. I have a follow up appointment in July 2019 thanks.

From diagnosis through recovery Dr. Frank was very professional and accomodating. Never did I feel left in the dark about the procedure I was having. Very professional, very knowledgeable, highly recommend!!

When I go to a Doctor's office I always look for a good bedside manner, Dr. Frank surpassed my expectations. He was nice, and explained everything in detail and answered all my questions.

Nice guy and a great doctor. I would recommend him to anybody!

He spent a long time advising me on the treatment options for my foot problem. Dr. Frank was extremely knowledgeable on the orthotic options and other resources. It was a terrific visit and I highly recommend him to runners and endurance athletes.

Dr. Michael Frank is the epitome of professionalism. He is compassionate, patient and is someone you can trust. I’m happy with the results of my surgery and would refer my family and friends to Dr. Frank.

Dr. Frank and his staff are very courteous, professional and efficient. They did an amazing job at navigating through the obstacles with my insurance. I was extremely pleased with his ability as a doctor. I highly recommend him and have already referred friends to him.

Worst foot doctor ever. All he wanted to do was have me pay $300 (my deductible) for some orthodics and take advil. There was no interest in getting me better. Not to mention the Orthodics, were heavy. My shoes were lighter without them. I had to go to another doctor who gave me better light orthodics and paid attention to the issue and healed me. Not to mention the fact that office never took my co-pay and then added $5 everytime they sent a paper statement. Avoid them and save your money.

I had an emergency situation and was lucky enough to have Dr. Frank do my surgery and help me get back on my feet again. I could not be more grateful.

Dr. Frank is a caring and compassionate person and doctor, focused and respectful easily describe him. He is skilled, confident, experienced and dedicated. As a patient I felt I was in qualified and the best hands possible.

Dr. Frank diagnosed me definitively and confidently, and he was exactly correct. He told me my options, and put no pressure at all on me. The surgery was performed by Dr. Frank and he is extremely talented and capable. I would highly recommend him.

Dr. Frank was very knowledgeable and professional. He offered great care. My foot is already feeling better! I would highly recommend his office.

Dr. Frank is an exceptional doctor. He is an expert in his field as he provides you with a well informed diagnosis and prognosis. He is also an excellent surgeon; he corrected my problem, explained the recovery process, and continued with appropriate follow-up. As one of the top foot and ankle surgeons in the area I appreciate his expertise.

I cannot recommend Mr. Frank for tendon/muscle/ligament foot injuries. I felt I was getting lip-service, not knowledge. I saw him due to weakness of big toe, which caused uneven gait and pain in joints. He is soft-spoken, and listened, but refused to look at MRI I brought, saying it takes "time" to see them. I sought and found Nr. 1 foot orthopedist in the US, who reviewed MRI in less than 5 mins, and identified the problem which required prompt surgery, which was a complete success.

Phenomenal physician/surgeon. He sat & listened to my story, took his time to fully understand my history & was so thorough before making a diagnosis. Dr. Frank not only performed a successful surgery, but uncovered that I was previously misdiagnosed with an underlying condition. Dr. Frank has given me hope for a life again & my family too. He also took care of my dad 5 yrs. ago who now lives pain free.

Extremely caring, courteous and very professional. Took the time to listen to my concerns, what was working and not working as far as past treatments. Suggested tests to more accurately diagnose the severity of current problems and sensitive to what my insurance plan would cover and willing to adjust accordingly. Explained everything in easy to understand language.

After several office visits with him plus out patient surgery on my foot for a bunion, I have found him knowledgeable, compassionate and interested. Dr. Frank is not overbooked and will spend as much time with you as necessary.

Had a great experience with Dr. Frank. Able to get an appointment right away. Dr. Frank fit me in his busy schedule several weeks later for foot surgery. The foot and leg pain is completely eliminated. Just started PT, six weeks after surgery and the foot is healing well. Office staff was exceptional

The staff and medical assistants here are so very kind and helpful. Do not hesitate to consult w/Dr. Frank to seek relief for any toe, foot or ankle ailment

Dr. Frank is very professional. I had an excellent overall experience with the doctor and office.

I appreciate his advice to try different options before considering surgery. I really appreciate his compassion, skill and expertise.

I couldn't be happier with my experience with Dr. Frank!

Many thanks to Dr. Frank and his staff. He is very professional, knowledgeable and is equipped with "State of the Art" equipment and procedures. He took the time to answer all of my questions and resolved my foot problems. And, his staff is very courteous and professional. I would highly recommend him to all of my family and friends.

Dr. Frank gave me my life back!! Living in pain for several years, other doctors didn't know what to do; Dr. Frank relieved my "chronic foot pain". This surgery was miraculous. A GREAT result! The staff at Family Foot And Ankle is helpful, encouraging and understanding. They kept me updated and on track while they guided me through the process. Thank you all for being awesome! I would highly recommend this office to anyone who has foot pain.

His staff is very professional, kind, caring and efficient. I would recommend Dr. Frank to anyone that needs a doctor for foot pain. Best medical decision of my life! Had surgery on my foot. There is light at the end of the tunnel. Dr Frank is a genius! He knows his stuff, is friendly and spends time answering questions and explains things. I haven't felt this good in a very long time! There are not enough superlatives to describe Dr Frank and staff! Save time money and effort, Go see Dr Frank

I saw this podiatrist because of hammer toe and ruptured plantar plate (PP) (diagnosed by an orthopedic surgeon, a Medical Doctor, I saw AFTER this podiatrist). Dr. Frank could not read MRI image, didn't do basic tests to test for PP rupture, and could not state what the problem was with my toes. He didn't seem rushed, but also didn't seem knowledgable. I had surgery few months after with a physician to correct the issue.

I didn’t appreciate appreciate it when the doctor tried to steer me toward buying a $30.00 medication from his office (no insurance accepted) when he could have phoned a script to my drug store which accepts my insurance. Final cost: $3.00. While some patients may find the doctor operating a pharmacy as convenient, I find it deceptive and another source of income for the doctor. I haven’t seen such an operation since I brought my dog to the vet.

Dr. Frank repaired my bunion last fall. The experience that I had with Dr. Frank and his surgical staff at the Surgery Center in Silver Spring was absolutely perfect in every way. To get such great care from a great Surgeon like Dr. Frank, is the reason why I made the drive from Southern Maryland. I was able to return to my physically demanding job several months after surgery. I would highly recommend Dr. Frank.

Great doctor. He analyzed the problems I was having with my feet. Provided me with the solution. Very short weight time. Dr. Frank was very nice. I felt that he was genuine when treating me. I would definitely recommend him to other patients.

My daughter had corrective flatfoot surgery on both of her feet last year by Dr. Frank and the results have been amazing. I was referred to Dr. Frank by my primary care doctor as one of the top foot and ankle surgeons in the Washington DC area. After consulting with Dr. Frank several times I felt confident in him doing the surgery. His gentle and professional bed side manner showed me that he really cared about my daughters well-being. I highly recommend Dr. Frank.

Dr. Frank is definitely the doctor to see in the Washington DC area if you need your bunion and hammertoes fixed. Thanks for your patience and a job well done on a difficult corrective surgery.

He was great! very helpful and as well as his staff. Highly recommend! very knowledgeable!

Dr. Frank was great today I got in for a same day appointment and then due to my car being done late at the shop was a a half hour late and they still took my appointment. He diagnosed and fixed an issue with my foot and it already feels better. The doctor and staff were extremely helpful.

Dr. Frank is a true professional. So many times I feel like the doctor is talking down at me. This was not true with this doctor. The staff at the office is wonderful. They make you feel so relaxed and they make sure that you are not waiting for ever. They are all confident in their work and are true professionals.
