About Frank Garritano, MD
Thank you for taking the time to visit my webpage. I am a second generation Italian-Irish-German American who was born and raised in New York City, and that is where I attended both college and medical school. I am the first and only physician in my family. Although I enjoyed living in New York, I transplanted to the Bay Area in 2016 and I have been enjoying the sunny California weather ever since. I completed my training in Otolaryngology – Head & Neck Surgery as well as additional fellowship training in Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery. During that time I had the opportunity to participate in several international humanitarian medical missions. I have traveled to Guatemala, Ecuador, Vietnam and the Philippines performing reconstructive surgery on children born with cleft lip, cleft palate, and microtia (congenital absence of the ear). These have been some of the most rewarding experiences I have had as a person and as a physician, and those experiences continue to influence my practice here at home. I plan to continue this humanitarian work for many years to come.
