I believe in comprehensive patient-centered care. I want to work with patients to determine how the pulmonary or sleep disorder that they have is impacting their overall health and wellbeing. I strive to be the provider that can help improve their quality of life through addressing these conditions.

Dr. Franco took the time to explain the test results and how various meds could help make me more comfortable. Her explanations were clear and understandable and she mapped out care plan that was reasonable and doable. It was a pleasure seeing such a fine and caring physician. Thank you !

Excellent service from Dr. Franco.
Dr. Franco listened to my medical concerns attentively & took the appropriate action in making a change to my sleep medication to improve my restful sleep.
Today the doctor was a bit behind but that was not a problem at all because I felt heard and I was not rushed. Dr. Franco and her staff are incredible!
Thank you for the care!
I would like to rate Dr. Franco beyond "very good" in the above areas. She was outstanding.
It is a pleasure working with Dr. Franco.
I gained perspectives/information I didn't have previously. How I was undermining quality sleep by remaining in bed when I was unable to sleep. I have been staying in bed too many hours and will go to bed at a later hour or rise earlier. Also made aware of a book that outlines a six eeek program to improve sleep outcomes. Will also participate in a home sleep study to rule in/out obstructive sleep apnea. I feel more empowered vis-a-vis my sleep issues.
Ron, Rose Franco is a wonderful doctor
Always top notch...
