About Mark G. Franco

Dr. Mark Franco is an orthopedic surgeon at MD West ONE. Methodist is proud to partner with MD West ONE and its team of orthopedic, neurosurgery and spine specialists.

Growing up, Dr. Mark Franco was always a curious person. He loved finding solutions to problems others would find too challenging. He also loved building and fixing things. His curiosity for the intricacies of the world around him left him wanting a career that constantly presented a new challenge. Wanting to use his skills to help people, Dr. Franco decided a career in the medical field would be a perfect fit.

He went on to attend medical school at the University of Nebraska Medical Center. He later completed his orthopedics residency at the Mayo Graduate School of Medicine. Today, he is an orthopedic surgeon as well as the medical director of Neuro-Musculoskeletal Services for Physical and Occupational Therapy at Methodist Physicians Clinic.

Dr. Franco strives to provide patients with the best possible care. His mission is to work with together with patients to create a tailor-made treatment plan. He is also a big believer in trust in respect ñ since his orthopedics involves invasive procedures, it is important for him to assure patients he will deliver exceptional care and results.

In his free time, Dr. Franco enjoys being active. He loves being outdoors, often going on runs to stay in shape. When he needs peace and quiet, one can often find him in the tranquility of his lawn and garden.
