Thank You Dr. William French
Dr. French has been by primary care physician for thirty plus years. He has made a difference in my overall health and well being. One evening while volunteering for a local charity, I had a sharp pain in the center of my back. It took my breath away and I had to sit down unable to continue with what I was doing. After approximately 10 minutes the pain was completely gone. I called Dr. French's office first thing the next morning. His assistant told me to come in and Dr. French would see me. Dr. French examined me and listened intently to my symptoms and family history. Unable to perform the needed tests in his office. He called the Baptist Health heart screening and diagnosis unit and told me to go there immediately. Upon arrival I was taken to an examining room where nurses and technicians took blood, hooked up a heart monitor, and got a complete history. A cardiologist examined me, read all the test results and assured me I was okay. My mother died at fifty three of congestive heart failure, my sister has congestive heart failure and my brother has had a heart attack. I appreciate Dr. French's critical thinking skills. The outcome could have been very different. Dr. French genuinely cares about his patients.
