Dr. Frank Barnhill is a Board Certified Family Physician
practicing in upstate South Carolina for over twenty years. He has an
environmentally friendly office based practice providing care for
children and adults of all ages. His first national recognition
occurred in the mid 1980’s, as an affiliate of the New York Times
discovered Dr. Frank’s unusual methods and office designs for
alleviating the fear and anxiety of visiting the doctor. Since then,
articles about his practice have been printed in over thirty national
and regional newspapers and correspondence about those articles has
occurred from several foreign countries.
Dr. Frank’s practice philosophy is to provide the best
medical care possible, using a common sense approach to therapy; in an
office setting that provides relaxed, non-threatening surroundings. He
stresses use of the most effective treatments with an emphasis on
preventing disease through a program of regular health screening. These
methods tend to secondarily help slow the ever-increasing costs of
health care.
Dr. Frank stresses the importance of maintaining and
expanding his medical knowledge. Since medicine is indeed a practice in
learning, he believes the educational experience should never cease.
Dr. Frank has additional training in Pediatrics and
Adolescent Medicine, Urgent and Emergency Care, and Gerontology. He
lectures to school groups of all ages, teachers, as well as civic and
social groups on a wide range of health care concerns. His interest in
children’s physical and emotional health has lead to development of a
learning series called “Cork and the Bear” with special attention to
behavior mindsets such as ADHD and other normal traits of children ages
six to fourteen.
In association with Frank Jones, a motivational speaker
with over thirty years experience in the entertainment and business
arenas, Dr. Frank is developing a skills related series on peak
performance in the workplace. Their goal centers about the theory of
enhancing everyone’s work skills leads to increased productivity. And
of course, increased productivity helps us all.
Dr. Frank credits his success to the short blond he
married over 25 years ago. Life is a lot safer that way. She has put
up with his ADHD for a long time!
