A few visits were fine but then if you are having issues, she doesn’t listen. Just another endocrinologist that treats only to the numbers, not symptoms. Not really a thyroid expert. Has PA come in to explain thyroid 101 to me. I’m a 16 year thyroid cancer survivor, I don’t need some young judgy PA explaining thyroid to me.

She is a perceptive and excellent doctor. She will always listen to you carefully and suggest good solutions to your problems. The follow up is also excellent. She has helped me enormously with my help over the last couple of years. I really recommend her.

I had to change endo's since my previous one had left. Dr. Frachetti's office is outstanding. I checked in early for my first visit. The nurse had in in an exam room immediately, then the PA came in and was very thorough and no rush. Finally Dr. Frachetti came in and she was very thorough, helpful, and considerate. There was no rush and I found here exam and suggestions very helpful and thoughtful. She recommended I come back in 3 months and then see where we are, so to speak. I can, without reservation, recommend her.

Totally dismissive, told me to go back to my PMD if I'm having symptoms. Also said I was "grasping" when I asked about possible causes with nothing to back up that claim. Basically treated me as if I had Munchausen syndrome. Admitted she didn't even look at my chart or read through the notes the PA took before coming in - another review noted this same instance.

Dr. Frachetti has been my endocrinologist since 2019. I am a transplant recipient and as you can imagine, have an extensive medical history. Dr. Frachetti is always super attentive, she’s always prepared for my visit, either via tele-health or in-person, she reviews all my bloodwork, any issues, how I’m feeling, etc. I am genuinely perplexed to why she has even one negative review. In fact, her entire office is extremely professional. The patient portal is very simple to use and it’s always up-to-date. My medication refills ... read more

Absolutely incompetent. Will not return phone calls, and will let you run out of your medication and wait for weeks while playing phone tag during work, unmedicated. Managed to fumble my care continually, somehow worsening over the course of two and a half years of consistent, straightforward treatment. Unacceptable service. Also billed me incorrectly on multiple occasions, and did not fix it when asked. Please do not waste your time seeking care here.

My experience with this Dr. left me wondering about her professional judgements and my well being. Left her!!

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 ... read more
