Caroline Conner should have lost her license in 1997 for incompetent malpractice. She’s very lucky I just fired her instead of taking her through a career ending lawsuit. Award or not, she is no doctor.
Alf – I totally disagree. During her practice as my primary physician, I found her exceptional.
Some people eventually figure out a better course for them is to improve their performance above the lawsuit threshold.
Caroline was my primary care physician for 15 years and her brilliance, compassion, and experience saved my life in multiple ways, multiple times. I cringed when she retired. I value her as a a doctor and a human.
Her “brilliance” nearly killed me. She is the last person I would trust. She recklessly pushed drugs with horrible side effects. She refused alternative treatment continuously. She’s worse than the doctor recently put on probation for overprescribing opioids.
We never had a problem with Dr. Conner. Always polite, professional and informative.
Dr. Frankenfurter for her tireless equivocating, statistics-fudging and outright lying on behalf of the Medical Industrial Complex and Big Pharma. While people die from the vaccines worldwide (at least 55 in US as of Friday), the destruction of our economy by award-winning bureaucratic demagogues marches on.
Dr. Frankovich is an amazing person who gave me hope during 2020! Thank you for your service to our community.
