I am a 64 year old male who had to find a new primary care physician after 40 years - trust me, not easy! I was treated by Dr. Radkey for apparent gout, typical elder care, and guidance on maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Dr. Radkey is unbelievable - a caring, educated doctor, who takes the time to address your concerns as well as counseling you as you moving towards a better lifestyle. I was very pleased with how caring and knowledgeable she was and I'm very glad she is my new primary care physician.

~Joe W., Fayetteville, Arkansas

Dr. Radkey became my physician in 2009. I have never doubted the treatments that she recommended during our seven year association. She exhibits the best of what a good doctor should exhibit: kindness, consideration, confidence, patience, genuine interest in patients, and an excellent source of knowledge. I am 84 and have been very fortunate to escape major medical catastrophes... but have had a few moderate to minor issues through the years that were important to me... therefore, she made it important to her. She treated me most of the time, but would refer to others when she felt more information was needed. She never made me feel inadequate in any way. So sorry to lose her. My loss is someone else's gain.

Thank you Dr. Fran Radkey from one of your patients that appreciates you and I'm so glad that you're my doctor.

You have such a way of making me feel relaxed and I feel like I can talk to you about anything and never feel embarrassed about questions I have. You have always taken time to explain things that would normally make me feel uncomfortable with other doctors.

I can call your office when I am sick and I always seem to get in the same day even if you have to squeeze me in between other patients. Never have I ever felt that you were in a hurry to get to another patient even though you're so busy.

Thank you Dr. Radkey for being a doctor that makes me feel good about going to the doctor. I think it is your smile that makes me feel so good. You are always happy and have a way, no matter how bad I feel, of making me feel better.

~ Haley B., Mountain Home, Arkansas, June 14, 2015

We have been patients of Dr. Radkey's for about two years, since we moved to Arkansas from northern Illinois. We have been very pleased with her as a family doctor. She has helped us through various illnesses, and is always kind and thorough. It is not difficult to get an appointment, as one time she even "snuck" one of us in when an uncomfortable illness struck. We also like the fact that there is a nurse to call with questions.

All in all, we are very pleased with Dr. Radkey as our physician, and recommended her highly to others.
~ Arlene & Michael M., Mountain Home, Arkansas, June 1, 2015

Dr. Radkey has been my physician for many years and is absolutely the best physician I have ever had. She is very easy to talk to and has a real compassion for others. Dr. Radkey was also my mother's physician and my mother just loved her. I would not have known what to do without her helping me with my mother's health issues. She was there with knowledge and support throught it all. I cannot imagine how I could have coped with this without her support and kindness. I cannot express how much I appreciate how much she has done way beyond what any doctor would have! She is not just a great doctor, she is a great person. I am very grateful for all she has done for me and my mother. She is simply the BEST!
~ Sandy R., Mountain Home, Arkansas, June 10, 2015

I have been a patient of Dr. Radkey’s for years. She is kind, compassionate and proactive in her patients’ care and well-being.
~ Rose Miller, Minnesota

You are one of the best doctors I have ever had. One time I had such a bad pain in my face and head. Everyone was telling me that I was just having a bad headache, but then you came around the corner and took one look at me and told me to get away from the computer and proceeded to tell me I had shingles in my left eye. You called the eye doctor and sent me over right away. Thank God for you!

I have a lot of medical problems with my transplant, heart and everything else that is wrong with me and you always came through for me! You were always there for me and made sure that I did things right.
~ Dorothy Vukelich, Minnesota

If I was ill, or my family was ill, I want Dr. Radkey to care for us. She listens to our concerns and stays on top of any lab/test results.
~ Susan Schuckert, Nebraska

Dr. Frances Radkey is the epitome of the consummate physician. She is highly skilled in her knowledge of medicine and health, and yet can communicate with patients in layman's terms that are easily understood. In addition to her scientific expertise, she displays tremendous compassion and kindness when caring for her patients, qualities that are exceptional in health providers. Dr. Radkey is the perfect example of the kind of doctor one seeks for care, and we consider ourselves truly fortunate to be her patients.
~ Richard and Mary Gannon, Mountain Home, Arkansas

My family and I moved to this area about 4 years ago and were in search of a new family doctor. We started using Dr. Radkey and I have to say she is the most knowledgeable and caring doctor that I have ever had. She always explains to you what she is doing and will call you at home to follow up and see how you are doing. I would recommend Dr. Radkey to anyone. I completely trust her with mine and my family's health.
~ Shawna Herd, Mountain Home, Arkansas

Several years ago my father's Internal Medicine MD died unexpectedly. I was pleased to learn Dr. Radkey was accepting new, challenging patients like my father who is in his 80's. My father's diabetes, respiratory, heart, and cholesterol issues mandate an Internal Medicine MD monitor his health frequently. Thankfully, Dr. Radkey is patient with my stubborn, often non-compliant father.
~ Jodie Elizabeth Jeffrey for Rex L. Jeffrey, Mountain Home, Arkansas

My brother, who is a surgeon, recommended that when I was over 40 years old I should see a board certified Internal Medicine physician rather than a family practice physician. After inquiring who my friends recommended, Dr. Radkey was the Board Certified Internal Medicine physician I selected as my primary care physician. Dr. Radkey manages my aging issues very well and her office is very flexible in scheduling my appointments to meet my hectic career schedule. Dr. Radkey is thorough and detailed in her explanation of what, why, how, and when, regarding my health care.
~ Jodie Elizabeth Jeffrey, Mountain Home, Arkansas

I began seeing Dr. Radkey after a scary trip to the ER which I thought was a heart problem. After a very thorough workup and tests for everything Dr. Radkey was able to put my worries at ease and help me create a plan to recover. Dr. Radkey is very easy to work with and talk to and it's nice to have a primary care physician that can deal with so many different parameters of your health at the same time. Whether you're young or old and no matter what issues you’re dealing with, I would recommend Dr. Radkey as your next primary care or internal medicine physician.
~ Jess L., Mountain Home, Arkansas

I have seen Dr. Radkey as my primary physician for many years. I think that she is a very compassionate doctor and takes time to explain things to me. On several occasions, Dr. Radkey has even called me at home to check on me. I have never felt rushed on any visit with her, and she takes the time to listen to you. I have highly recommended her to my friends and family members. To sum it up, they do not make doctors like her anymore. I cannot say enough about her, she is the best doctor I have ever had by far!
