Frank J Garofalo

I honestly don’t know where the good reviews are coming from. I noticed they are all young ladies though, he may be more gentle to them but anyway let me explain my experience. The area is in the most ghetto and crime ridden area of L.A. homeless everywhere and even found someone staring into my car as I was coming back from the procedure. But all that would be acceptable IF I got quality medical attention. Now, onto the experience…
I walked in to get a toenail fungus treatment done. The doctor got a metal filing tool to sand down the nail so the laser would more easily penetrate the nail, I closed my eyes and endured the horrible pain, but I assumed it was part of the filing process. He did this on 3 of my nails, when I opened them as he was done, I looked down and I was bleeding. Non-​stop bleeding on 3 toes so much so that It hurt to walk for a weekand this honestly felt very barbaric.
As he proceeded to use the laser on me, half the time he was talking and pointing the laser everywhere but the nail. (The machine is time set so once the timer is over, the procedure is done). I assumed he knew what he was doing but talking to other doctors, the laser is completely safe and should be focused on the nail at all times, no reason to point it elsewhere. Dr. Garofalo did offer 50% off future treatments if the laser didn’t do the job the first time and now I realize he purposely did a half ass job just to steal me of my money again.
3 months later, the fungus is still there on all 3 toes and im skipping the «bargain“and going to a true professional this time
With all due respect to Dr Garofalo, he is in his 70s, can barely see and wears hearing aids due to poor hearing, I don’t think he should be continuing medical procedures like these.

The doctor is good and experienced, it’s been pleasant experience. I would recommend this doctor.

I don’t write many reviews but I have to say this Dr is simply fantastic. I was scared at first but he explained the process clearly and it was painless and easy. I recommend him to everyone I know who has fungus
