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.

He is a very skilled plastic surgeon. He practices plastic surgery with great esthetic appeal. He is very easy to talk to about any issue and takes time so that you do not feel rushed.

Dr. French is the best! He is cheerful, understanding, affable, knowledgeable, and goes out of his way to help you. Dr. French did my tummy tuck in 2004 and breast reduction in 2005 and the results are still great. My eye, brow and facelift are fantastic. He is so understanding with your spouse and always listens and answers to their needs. And his staff is outstanding...kudos to all of them! Sherrie Gozdick, his Patient Coordinator is always available to help out, answer questions and is very understanding regarding anything you ask her. Everyone loves my “fresh “face. I recommend Dr. French to anyone who needs a plastic surgeon. I even carry his business cards to handout when someone asks who did the work.

I had the pleasure of having a Mommy Make over from Dr.French. At age 54 and four C sections I knew Gravity was taking over. My only regret is that I did not do it ten years ago. Dr French is an amazingly skilled and talented surgeon. I chose him as I have several friends who have been patients. I would highly recommend his services as well as Sibley Hosptial. The staff and physicians there were top notch.

I have been a patient of Dr. French's for 8 years, having had 3 procedures done by him and I consider him to be one of the top plastic surgeons in the DC area. I will soon be having another procedure done by Dr. French and feel confident that the outcome will be exactly what he and I have discussed. It would be great if more doctors could relate to their patients the way he does.

I would leave fewer stars if possible. He did not do the correct procedure which I suspected and he confirmed during a follow up to discuss my adverse results. His response was basically "oh well". I asked if he would fix it but he was unwilling unless I paid for a new procedure. I wasn't willing to pay him a second time when he messed up the first time nor did I trust him to operate on me again. I've consulted several other doctors and they have all been appalled. I am ashamed of how I

I would give less If I Could. They started with me very nice to get the business(thats what they are just a business). The operation was exactly the opposite of what they promised. When I confronted him, he was so cold and not receptive. I finally had to go to another Dr to fix his mistakes. I know he knows it very well what i'm talking abou
