He is the first provider that actually made me feel like he cared about helping his patients

Of the dozens of doctors I've seen over 84 years, Dr. French was the most thorough and friendliest of all. He's a great doctor that I would recommend to anyone.

I met Dr French several years before in regards to my lung. He always made me feel comfortable and answer all my questions. Couple days I had to go see him again. This time there was more to talk about. He tells me everything that I questions that I make. He makes me feel that I'm in good hands and I trust him 100%. Basically he makes you feel comfortable and trust him 100% also

After seeing several providers regarding the health condition by which I saw Dr. French for, I mean hospital, urgent care, another pulmonist, internal medicine doctor, Dr. French was the only one who made a recommendation for something that made sense to treat the problem, that explained things simply, directly, and showed me a visual demonstration of how to use the new inhaler. He took the time to answer any and all questions during the visit and even in the hallway when more questions were thought to be asked. He took the time and he did not seem rushful. He was slow, he was detailed, he explained things well, he was down to earth, and I mean after experiencing this health issue since March 1st.

Dr. French seemed to really care about my health concerns and he wants to get to the root of the issues. I'm thankful for that because I've been sick for almost 2 years and I'm miserable. So having a doctor that truly cares like Dr French is a blessing.
