frankly


Explanation:
This is the same answer as MLD's but for a very different reason. The suggestion that "francamente" could mean "frankly speaking" is, frankly speaking, nonsense.

The words "frank" and "frankly" are used a lot in medicine to mean clear(ly) and unambiguous(ly). So we have "frank pathology", "frank psychosis", etc. While Lorenia's suggestion of "clearly" is perfectly correct, I believe "frankly" is more idiomatic medical jargon.
