Testimonials from patients of Dr. Martin
I have been with Dr.Martin since the day he joined his father’s practice, as I was a patient of Dr.Martin senior. Dr.Martin has met me at his office on numerous occasions when I was sick over the weekend. Most importantly, Dr.Martin always closely monitored my diviticulitis and sent me to the hospital where I had to have a reverse ostomy. If it had not been for Dr.Martin’s vigilante care,… See more
I first saw Dr. Frank Martin approximately four decades ago. He cured a chronic sinus infection that my previous doctor merely dabbed at. Frank has guided me through a number of serious medical issues since. He KNOWS me. He always has his thinking cap on. He communicates clearly and respectfully.
When he moved to the suburbs a few years back, I switched to another doctor closer to my… See more

The only negative I feel is that Dr. Martin can't visit me at any of the hospitals in Columbia, if I have to be admitted.
I really appreciate being able to contact Dr Martin anytime 7 days a week on his cell phone to discuss an issue I’m having. He is always very responsive and helpful.
I presented to Dr Martin with very high blood pressure after a dental appointment.

I don’t like doctors (going to see them professionally) even though my father was an orthopedic surgeon and I was an orthopedic rep for a number of years. Frank… See more

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
