Dr. Douglas Leon Fraker, MD

Saw him in 2014. The rudest most arrogant doctor I’ve ever met. Dismissive and a gigantic waste of our time and money coming from far away to see this so called “specialist”

dr Fraker remove my colon a number of years ago and the surgery and my recovery went very smoothly.

Dr. Fraker was very kind to me, he adjusted his schedule to fit me in , after being informed that I was flying in from another state to see him. After my discharged from the Hospital, Dr. Fraker’s Nursefallowed up with my recovery, to see how I was doing, it’s a good team effort. The Dr. spoke to me as if we knew each other prior, so I felt -very comfortable, that I was in the hands of a Dr. that cared for me holistically. May God continues to bring healing through his hands. I.J

I only wish I had been sent to him 5 years earlier so I could have felt better that much sooner.

Dr Fraker was extremely knowledgeable and provides excellent care! I felt completely confidant about my procedure based upon his high recommendations from my Doctor and colleagues prior but even more so after meeting him! I was lucky and fortunate to have been introduced to him.

Dr, Fraker was excellent. He answered all of our questions, made us feel comfortable. He is very personable and understands surgery is a big deal to the patient. His bedside manner is great.

I was very impressed with Dr. Fraker after my initial consultation for an upcoming surgery. He answered my questions and provided detailed information about my choices but allowed me to make my own choice for a partial versus total thyroidectomy. He also put my mind at ease about the particular type of nodule I have and the high percentage of it being benign. My understanding is that he is one of the most experienced thyroid surgeons in the country and I am confident I chose the right one!

ALL I CAN SAY IS THANK GOD FOR DR. FRAKER! ALL MY WORRIES AND FEARS WERE FOR NOTHING! MY SCAR ON MY NECK IS MINIMAL AND I EXPERENCED LITTLE TO NO PAIN AFTER THE SURGERY.

Ignore his bed side manner, he is an extremely talented, skilled and a 'think tank' type guy. You can tell by the way he talks that he doesn't have the answer, but he has the very last single detail of that answer and simply can't get it out fast enough. His job is opening you up and fixing something and honestly, there isn't a single picture my wife found on the internet that looked better than hers. He took extra special time and care marking all the areas and natural creases, the incision is minimal and 30 minutes out of surgery, I couldn't see where he made the cut. Very small, thin piece of tape, beyond anything I imagined, not that I would care but it is perfect, 3 weeks out and it looks like a cat scratch. He also respects the patient's wishes and will respect alternate methods/treatments, he will tell you if it is a dumb decision in his opinion, but still your choice.

Dr. Fraker is an outstanding Dr. He took time with my husband to discuss his diagnosis. He met with myself & my husband right before he went into O.R. Dr. Fraker came to me as soon as surgery was finished & told me everything & that he expected tumor to be benign. He and his interns came to see my husband often in hospital. He also came to see my husband as he was being discharged!! I would recommend DR. Fraker to anyone!! You will not find a better DR!
