Dr Frank performs surgery at Long Island Jewish Medical Center and Glen Cove Hospital. Dr. Frank joined Northwell in 2007 as chief of the Division of Head and Neck Surgery at Long Island Jewish Medical Center.

He would go on to become Northwell Health Cancer Institute’s first director of surgical oncology, and is currently the Institute’s director of operations. “Our head and neck oncology program at Northwell evolved into one of regional and national renown,” he says. “We have the ability to deliver sophisticated surgical and nonsurgical multidisciplinary head and neck oncologic care at multiple sites throughout our network.” Dr. Frank completed residencies at New York Eye and Ear Infirmary and St. Vincent’s Hospital and Medical Center, and a fellowship at University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center.

He serves as chair of Long Island Jewish Medical Center’s Cancer Committee, which is recognized by the Commission on Cancer—a coalition of professional organizations dedicated to improving survival and quality of life for cancer patients. His research in head and neck oncology has resulted in numerous publications, awards and national presentations. “I really love guiding patients through what could be very complex care,” says Dr. Frank. “I appreciate the opportunity to help improve the lives of the people I care for, and through mentoring the careers of the people I work with.”
