Dr. French is the best doctor I have seen for my issues. He is extremely easy to deal with and to talk to about any issue you may have.

I have been using Dr. French for about 2 or 3 years and have found him to be an excellent clinician who is very personable and always has time when I need it so I never feel rushed. He also does follow up calls himself to report results (from a general physical).

I have been with Dr. French many years and will continue my medical needs through him. The office staff is always engaged in LOUD conversations and have had numerous insurance billing miss coded. Phone calls are always put on hold and at times have had to hang up and call back

Quite possibly the best doctor I have ever had. Doctor Neel French is courteous and definitely places your health first. He is thorough and is not afraid to spend time to listen to what you have to say. If your current Doctor is one of those who is in and out in as least amount time as possible, you are putting your health at risk. If you are in the area, or you take your health seriously, give his office a call and setup a health/life changing appointment. You will not be disappointed.

Office staff is very courtious but spend a LOT of time in loud personal gab. Calling for a appointment, always put on hold for 5-10 min.
