Specialty

Neurosurgery

Frank Tomecek, M.D., specializes in neurosurgery – surgery of the nervous system, specifically of the brain and spinal cord. “When I went to medical school,” he said, “the nervous system was something that fascinated me because there was so much unknown. I thought, ‘We can transplant the heart, the lungs, the liver and the kidneys, but not the brain or spinal cord.’ It was an area where there was still a lot to learn and I felt I could really grow with the specialty.”

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.”

Dr. Tomecek’s education includes:
     • Bachelor of Science degree from DePauw University in Indiana, 1983
     • Medical degree from Indiana University, 1987
     • Surgical internship and residency at Henry Ford Hospital in Michigan, 1993
     • Neurosurgical spine fellowship at the University of Louisville Hospital, 1993

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.

What I love about Dr. Tomecek is that he is soft spoken and thinks outside the box. He is not afraid to do what he knows best. I had cervical fusion and titanium and I came out feeling great. Love love his knowledge and caring ways. (Good luck getting in, I recommend faxing him a letter because his assistant is overworked and does not call back for months until after a complaint is done.

Dr. Tomecek and his associate Kelly are both caring and professional. I was nearly killed by a drunk driver in 2022, and piece by piece they put me back together. I recently loss my husband and Kelly was kind as I struggled during my last appointment. It's still going to be challenging, but I have Dr's who are at the top of their game.

I went to Dr. Tomecek because I felt like I was paralyzed on one side and could not even hold my phone. I also had a hard time walking and was in a lot of pain. He reviewed my MRI and explained the severity of my case. If I didn’t have surgery, I could be paralyzed. I had total confidence that Dr. Tomecek would help me with this extensive surgery. He explained in detail what he was planning to do and let me know it would be a long surgery. I know his hands were guided by God because after surgery, I felt like nothing was ever wrong with me. I also had no complications and couldn’t thank Dr. Tomecek enough because he gave my life back to me. If you feel hopeless, as though no one could help you, I highly recommend Dr. Tomecek because he is a miracle worker. May God bless him.

After 3 disks replaced in the neck, I appreciated each visit was accompanied with his nurse as witness. That's integrity and responsibility. I was sent home as early as possible to keep physical and mental health active.
