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.

Patronizing
I had very poor experiences with Aaron Brown DO. He was patronizing and invalidating when I went to him with an array of symptoms I did not understand. He did not listen; he asked me how often I had seen my last doctor. He diagnosed two potential causes said he would make the necessary referrals but he never did. He made a recommendation for how to proceed [I don't want to give details because it would reveal my identity] for a procedure that would require monitoring by a doctor but he never requested I make any follow-up appointments. He traded me as though I were mentally ill. The last time I saw him was following a hospitalization in Portland and a request from those doctors that I see my primary which was Aaron Brown DO. During the appointment he asked why I was there. He had the record from PDX but apparently did not review them because he thought I had been in the hospital much longer than I had. I did ask him to re-fill my meds which he did do.

This is the worse doctor I have ever had. He will not listen to his patients at all. When covid came around he came into the exam room and told me not to come close to him as it was a danger. He once to me my sickness was my imagination! Enough said You be the judge

I wish I could give a 0 star rating! – Apr 07, 2021

He's knowledgeable. He explains things well. His staff is efficient. In office wait time was never very long. Parking is good. He has a wonderful sense of humor. The only thing I would like to see changed is not having to wait so long for an appointment. However, a good dr will have the longest wait time because everybody learns it and so everybody wants him/her.

I was thrilled with how Dr. Brown listened and the attention he paid to detail. I had been trying for months to get medical professionals to "listen to me," and no one else would...until Dr. Brown! I am so very happy!

Dr. Brown is a superb physician. He is attentive even with the most elementary issues. He is caring and practices medicine with intention. The minute I see him my blood pressure goes down 10 points because I know he truly cares about my health.

Never wait longer than 10 minutes to see him. Answers all My Chart communications within 1 to 2 hours. Makes referrals right away. Follows up on hospitalizations right away. An excellent doctor.
