Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Patient, kind, research-based approach
Dr. French spent significant time with us during daughter’s hospitalization. His treatment plan set us in the right course for recovery despite significant illness. Truly cares about his patients.

Arrogant and rude. Dismisses previous work ups and diagnoses. Terrible physical exam, taking a mere 1-2 minutes examining joints. No measurement of ROM.
