About Amy French, MD

I first approached women's health care as a counselor for rape and domestic violence survivors, as well as working with women with eating disorders. After deciding to pursue medicine, the choice of obstetrics and gynecology was obvious. The birth of a child is the most important day of a woman's life and I still thrill in every birth that I attend. I am also interested in minimally-invasive surgical techniques that offer women more choices in their reproductive health and have been designated a Surgeon of Excellence in Robotic Surgery by the Surgical Review Corporation. I received my bachelor of arts from Emory University, with a double major in psychology and religion. I completed post-baccalaureate science courses at the University of California, Berkeley. After medical school at the University of Louisville, I completed my residency at the University of Florida. During my residency, I was awarded teaching awards all four years and the Alfred P. Gold Humanism in Medicine Award during my final year. I also won first place at the residency research symposium for my original research on methods of labor induction. I love spending time with my twin boys outside of work.

I regrettably do not remember the name of the care provider that inserted my IUD on 8-16-24, but she is the best! She made me feel so comfortable and answered all of my questions. Definitely an improved experience, as this is my 2nd IUD. It was not as painful and I was less anxious.

I couldn't be happier with Dr. French. She is a fantastic doctor who has helped me in many ways, making life a little easier & I appreciate every bit. Please give her a raise she is so good with patients, I should know I worked in a family practice for 10 yrs.

The PA was fantastic! I have a long medical history but she took the time to review everything. I've never had a doctor or PA spend this much time going into detail.
