About

Francis Bandettini, DO

I have had an extensive amount of research experience, as a clinician, but also some very intensive clinical work while I have sustained a busy inpatient practice at the University of South Dakota School of Medicine from 1992 until approximately 1997, at which time decided to start a private practice. We had been in Sioux Falls until approximately the end of 2006, at which time we moved to a location that served the northern part of Sioux Falls. I do see a patients also from the Tri-State area, from Nebraska, Iowa, and Minnesota, upper South Dakota to include Watertown, Aberdeen, Madison and extending all the way to Western South Dakota. I do provide flexible hours for patients and I have also preceptored medical students from various medical schools to include osteopathic and allopathic students in my current outpatient clinic.Currently, we collaborate with a Nurse Practioner trained in South Dakota. My current experience, which involves office and inpatient experience from approximately 1989 to 1997, as well as now strictly office setting, has allowed me the wide experience of psychiatric difficulties and problems as well as specific difficulties encountered only in outpatient medicine, and also research experience as well as some teaching involvement. I have been also involved in a significant amount of forensic medicine and am a Diplomate of the American Board of Forensic Medicine as of January 25, 1997 and I have held that status ever since.1997.

I will absolutely return. I had an amazing experience, and they were by far the best I've ever seen. They have some of the best customer service I have ever seen. Putting their customers first is definitely a priority here and it shows. I've heard of a few psychiatrists that took personal phone calls during appointments, and I always thought that was so rude. Thankfully, they've never done that here. Their full attention is always completely on me. Not only was their advice completely unbiased, it was practical, realistic advice that I could implement into my everyday life, and it worked.

I will absolutely be returning. They did a great job, and I can’t wait for my next appointment. Not only was his advice completely unbiased, it was practical, realistic advice that I could implement into my everyday life, and it worked. Getting an appointment with them couldn't be easier. They're always able to give me the appointment time that works for me, and I never have to worry about taking off work or trying to squeeze it in my busy schedule.
