Patients appreciate
Dr. Jay Franklin receives overwhelmingly positive feedback from patients who consistently praise his clinical expertise, communication skills, and bedside manner. Patients frequently describe him as knowledgeable, thorough, and professional, with many highlighting his ability to explain complex cardiac conditions in easy-to-understand terms. His listening skills and patient-centered approach are repeatedly mentioned, with reviewers noting that he never rushes appointments, takes time to answer all questions, and shows genuine concern for their wellbeing. Many patients emphasize their long-term relationships with Dr. Franklin, some spanning 15-30 years, and express complete trust and confidence in his care. His successful procedures, particularly ablations and device implants, are credited with significantly improving patients' quality of life. The front office staff also receives consistent praise for being professional, courteous, and efficient, with minimal wait times frequently noted.
Patients also share
While the reviews are predominantly positive, a few areas for improvement emerge from the feedback. One patient noted that Dr. Franklin can be "relatively impatient in listening to patient" despite being technically knowledgeable. Another patient mentioned being left with an "unfortunate looking scar" from battery change surgery, though this reviewer still rated the experience highly overall. One review described him as "honest, direct and knowledgeable" but gave a lower rating, suggesting some patients may prefer a warmer communication style. These concerns are minimal compared to the volume of positive feedback, but they indicate occasional opportunities to ensure all patients feel fully heard and satisfied with both clinical outcomes and cosmetic results.
