I personally know many Drs physical therapists that have had complicated surgeries by him and all of them are doing great. My wife has had four surgeries by him all nesasary. her arms were completly numb from the elbow down to the fingertips not including the shoulder reconstructions she had done, I would have to say she is probably one of the more complicated patients medically speaking and he did a really good job.

I got fooled. I know he can fix shouders, it's just if he wants to. I have more pain now & can't pick up much or wash my own hair, BUT OH WELL, huh Dr. French. I can't do hardly anything with my young son, & thats what hurts too. BUT OH WELL! GET OVER IT, I TRUSTED HIM. Now I'll find another orthopedic Dr. Thank You Dr. French. May God Bless You & Keep You Safe, May He Make A BETTER Man Of You. Blessed Hoildays for You & Yours.

As far as I'm concerned Dr. French is a god. He rebuilt my right shoulder in May of '05 and just finished my left shoulder sx=weeks ago. Dr. French and his staff are the best!

Dr. French recently (June 2007) was found negligent in the Superior Court of Whitman County in a case involving bilateral multidirectional instability of the shoulder. This is a matter of public record. There are several other malpractice lawsuits against him in the works.

I was not happy with Dr. Frenchs decision to perfom surgery, and when I found out that he was found negligent for misdiagnosing a shoulder case and performing unnecessary surgery I decided to find another doctor!

Dr. was too quick to decide on surgery, aftercare was very poor once I complained of complications.

Dr French is my savior. Without him, I would have been disabled for life. He was willing to do surgery where noone else was and fixed three tears in my shoulder. Before surgery I could only lift my dominant arm to shoulder height. Now, three months postoperatively, I can raise my arm up over my head. The pain I suffered with for two years is GONE! I have heard that Dr French is controversial but he is willing to take the more difficult cases that noone else will touch. I would not be returning to my job without Dr. French.
