Feb 14, 2023
My husband Wayne & I have had the exceptional blessing of having Dr. FRANSES in our lives. He & his team have worked to save my husband, who has stage 4 liver cancer & became quite sick. Dr. FRANSES is absolutely BRILLIANT & a wonderful young man to boot. We feel like we’ve won the lottery (plus some) in having him working to keep Wayne alive & well. There are no words except thank you so very much.
