After completing his undergraduate work in his hometown of Knoxville at the University of Tennessee, Dr. French elected to pursue his medical degree at ETSU’s Quillen College of Medicine. Quickly becoming rooted in the beautiful surroundings of the Tri-Cities, Dr. French completed his residency training in Bristol.  He had the privilege of caring for patients at two hospital and physician-owned groups.  He is now excited, however, to finally return home to Knoxville after eight years of outpatient experience. He enjoys learning the stories of the families that he cares for and being an integral part of their physical, spiritual, and emotional health. He is a member of the American Academy of Family Physicians, the CMDA, and certified by the American Board of Family Medicine.

Outside of medicine, Dr. French likes to spend quality time with his wife and young children. He also enjoys fishing, hiking, traveling, and cooking.
