Philosophy Of Care

"I would like my patients to feel like their family physician is respectful and listens carefully to their concerns, and attempts to develop a partnership and plan to address their health care goals. I would also like the opportunity to care for the entire family – adults, grandparents, and children – because I believe that there are advantages and efficiencies in having one physician care for your entire household. I also enjoy the challenge of trying to improve the wellness of what others might call ‘difficult’ or ‘complicated’ cases."

2018-06-29T00:00:00Z	5 June 28, 2018	I needed to see my physician on short notice. I visited the office in person to ask for an appointment and got one later that day. It was a mid-afternoon appointment, so I expected to have to wait beyond my scheduled time due to backups by that time of day. Once int he exam room, my physician and nurse worked well together to address my concern.

2018-01-20T00:00:00Z	2.92 January 19, 2018	My only really bad part of this particular visit is that I was encouraged to get a routine flu shot, and I agreed. The woman jabbed it into my arm, and pain shot down my arm through my elbow area and up into my neck and face. My face went numb on the left side. The lady who jabbed me then says "let me go get my nurse," and leaves the room. Cue blood pressure spike again-- seriously? I thought YOU were the nurse, ma'am. Who just jabbed me with a needle and hit my nerve?? At least this time I got someone who was in clean scrubs-- that isn't always the case in this office. But honestly, if someone is NOT a nurse, they should tell the patient. I will ALWAYS insist that an R.N. or the doctor himself to administer any injections in the future, and hope I don't get any flack for that request. (Now it's 2 days later and I still have intense burning from my left shoulder blade all the way up my neck and face to just below my eye. I know that a bad injection can happen to anyone at any time, but I went into this appointment very ill, and came out sicker because of that injection. )

2017-09-26T00:00:00Z	5 September 25, 2017	I was approaching a holiday weekend & my regular provider was not in. My tendency would have been to wait until the following week but by the kind encouragement of the reception who took the call I decided no to.

2017-08-22T00:00:00Z	5 August 21, 2017	I had an excellent experience with this office and Dr French. It was a routine physical, but I was nervous because I hadn't had one in sometime. Dr French was extremely professional, made me feel comfortable and confident in sharing my concerns. He was thorough, efficient and caring and I walked out with detailed written instructions on improvements I can make in my health. I was very, very pleased with my experience and am excited about making those changes to improve my current situation.
