I was invited by a client of mine to attend a presentation from Dr. Martin to his patients and others regarding his moving from his primary care practice to becoming an MVIP practice. I was there only to help my client make a decision as I already was seeing another primary care physician at the time. Following the presentation I was among the first to sign up to become a MDVIP patient with Dr… See more
I came into Dr. Martin's office with intense pain in my right shoulder, of unknown origin (no trauma I know of). He gave me a shot for pain and one for inflammation which gave me immediate relief. But a week later the pain was back so I came into his office a second time. He did the pain shot again, but somehow he got me in to see the specialist (a prominent local orthopedic surgeon) the… See more
A while back Dr. Martin had me do a scan for a separate issue. He said that while I was there I should do a heart calcification scan also. I did. 10 min and very little cost. Results were a score of 4750 which is 5 times what it should have been. Soon after I had a quad bypass surgery. Because of Dr. Martin finding this before any heart event I was treated and released with no damage… See more
Dr. Frank Martin, Jr, replaced his father in a family practice years ago. In all, I have seen Dr. Martin and Dr. Martin, Jr. for over 43 years. Dr. Martin is like family.

That is where the blood flow to the abdominal tissue or intestine becomes trapped in the sac of the hernia. It happened and within a couple of minutes I went from no pain to" on your knees " pain. My wife said lets call Dr.… See more

I started seeing him in October 2018 and was diagnosed with breast cancer within a month of being his patient. He was always very kind and attentive. He continues to be supportive as I have completed my one year of treatment. He always has a smile and listens to everything I have to say. I feel like he leaves no stone unturned when it comes to my care. I am grateful to be his patient.
I moved to Columbia, South Carolina in 1972 when I was twenty-six years old. I needed to find a doctor. Someone at work recommended Dr. J.

She and I immediately hit it off; that first visit cemented my relationship with both the doctor, his wife, and his dog Rex who sat… See more
