About Frank Tomecek, M.D.
Dr. Tomecek’s inspiration to get into health care happened at a young age. He said, “When I was a kid, I had asthma and some other medical problems. I was interested in becoming a doctor because they helped me so much and made feel a lot better.” His mother was also an important factor in his career, pushing him to do better in academics once she realized how smart he was.
Dr. Tomecek’s goal is to work with each patient to achieve the best outcome and to provide the best quality of life possible. He says, “I focus on the overall care of the patient and prescribing the right treatment, not just on performing an operation. Many people don’t need surgery, so I’m happy to help people with therapy or in other ways to avoid surgery.”
When Dr. Tomecek isn’t working at the clinic, he can be found enjoying time with his family, scuba diving, golfing, snow skiing, playing tennis and cycling.

Dr. Tomecek and PA Kelly Watson i've been absolutely fantastic!. Doctor Tomecek is an amazing doctor. I actually feel as if I'm not just another name that needs to be checked off the list to see that day. I think on my last visit he spent over 30 minutes with me talking to me about the reason for my pain and I think what I appreciated most of all was he offered me a solution that was not given to me by other neurosurgeons when I originally first had problems. On my last visit, he did the same thing regarding a new problem. He offered me a solution that was less invasive that very well may take care of the issue. And if it doesn't, we have not left my spine and condition to wear we can't perform a more advanced procedure to eliminate the pain. Absolutely fabulous doctor!
