Dr. Katherine Jennifer Frachetti, MD

She is ok, but just be aware Buffalo has few Endocrinologists that are taking patients (and lots of thyroid, diabetes, etc. issues), so it is good to get in to see "someone". As an initial patient she takes her time, but recently she has instituted PAs. The PAs are very nice, listen, try to explain the basics that you already know, but then Dr. Frachetti comes in and just repeats her normal points of view - even if things have changed or will in the near future. In my experience it was not even worth telling the PA what was going or what I thought. I imagine this is a volume business so they need to move quickly (so I understand why the PAs were implemented), but the doctor has used this new structure of the practice (for lack of a better term coming to mind) to take less time with me during the last two visits. Very disappointing. I hope other patients have better experiences. All in all, just be aware of it and take it with a grain of salt. Perhaps they will work out the wrinkles.

I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes at age 56. It was discovered by my primary MD at my physical. The primary MD prescribed a number of medications. I was allergic to all of them. I knew I needed a specialist. Enter Dr. Frachetti a calm experienced professional who knew right away what medications would work. Her office staff is also great. She took care of me and everything is under control.

I had my first visit with Dr. Frachetti. She was professional, kind, and thorough. After decades of thyroid issues I feel like I'm finally in very good hands. Office staff was also very friendly and efficient.

Just had my first visit with Dr Fachetti. She is very professional and knowledgeable. Very pleased with the entire experience. Thank you Doctor Frachetti
