H. Gregory Frankel
MD, MBA

Dr. Frankel performed emergency spinal fusion surgery on me in January 2025. My case was complicated by a late stage cancer diagnosis . Dr. Frankel was honest, direct and calming during an uncertain and scary time. While inpatient Dr. Frankel & his team were highly visible, accessible and coordinated care with my other physicians. I am so grateful for the care Dr. Frankel and his team provided to me!

Extensive surgery done by Dr Frankel 2 weeks ago. I highly recommend him as a skilled surgeon and compassionate physician . I cannot thank him and his staff enough for getting me through a difficult time. You won't be disappointed if choosing him to care for you.

My experience with Dr. Frankel has been top notch. I met him during a very scary visit to HUMC last week and even at my emergency room bedside, he was calm and caring, taking the time to explain all the details. I was scared and he made me feel like we could find solutions. His methodical and steady thought process made everything feel like we would figure things out, together.

Dr. Frankel looked at me with compassion and thoughtfulness, which sometimes is the last thing you feel in emergency hospital situations. He was by far the best doctor I encountered during my stay. Yesterday, I had the pleasure of visiting him at his office for my follow up on From Road, and from my initial check in to my final visit with Julia S. the Dr's Concierge, I felt so taken care of. Julia went out of her way to help me find the right doctors in the Neuro Group and scheduling the necessary tests and scans. Her sense of calm and compassion really matched that of Dr. Frankel. Their new office on From Road is modern, airy and bright and feels like a boutique hotel over a clinical cold place. I am so pleased to have found a doctor, like Dr. Frankel. I look forward to his guidance and solutions-based approach to finding out what is happening to my body and brain at this time. Truly outstanding experience!

Great doctor and great team

Dr. Frankel is an excellent listener. He is attentive to all my concerns and made me feel comfortable and confident that he was the right Nuerosurgeon for my back problems. I’m 6 weeks after surgery and my leg pain is gone and I am feeling stronger every day. Thank you Dr. Frankel.

Dr. Frankel was great. He patiently listened to and answered our questions. Gave us a lot of peace of mind after a terrible experience prior to our seeing him. His staff was very kind and helpful.

5 stars don’t even begin to do justice to how amazing Dr. Frankel is! Before seeing him, I nervously Google-searched his name and couldn’t find any reviews, which made me a little unsure at first. Now, I’m thrilled to be one of his first reviews because he absolutely deserves the recognition.

Dr. Frankel is an amazing doctor who truly cares about his patients and their families. I was very nervous and scared before my initial consultation appointment, but he made me feel calm and supported. He listened carefully to my concerns and explained everything in a way I could easily understand.

Unlike other doctors that I have seen, Dr. Frankel didn’t just assume the cause of my pain. He sent me for further testing, including an MRI, and discovered that the real issue was a cyst on my spine, not just a herniated disk. Thanks to his thoroughness and attention to detail, I was able to get the correct diagnosis and treatment I needed.

He was also incredibly supportive of my worried family members. He answered all their questions patiently and helped them feel more at ease. After my spinal surgery to remove the cyst and treat a herniated disk, Dr. Frankel went above and beyond. He checked on me in the hospital and even called several times afterward to make sure I was recovering well.

Dr. Frankel is kind, thorough, and truly dedicated to his patients. I can’t thank him enough for easing my fears and taking such good care of me. Now I am totally pain free, where I needed a walker to walk even the shortest of distances. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring and skilled surgeon.

Very professional. Has my confidence.

Doctor Frankel was lovely to meet with. He explains everything in layman’s terms and gave us an honest assessment of my situation. He recommended more imaging of my spine (I’ve seen a lot of highly regarded surgeons for this problem, and NONE has requested more, DIFFERENT tests), and he recommended I see a rheumatologist to build up my bones before we can consider any further treatment, including possible surgery. Very patient with all our questions, and we never felt rushed. So happy I found him!

A very positive first visit and happy with our plan of action.
