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.

My relationship with Dr. Brown stretches over the past 15+ years. A conscientious true professional, he is not only highly expert in his specialty, but has provided guidance/advice on other health issues and concerns. He takes a personal interest in his patients' welfare and communicates well with concerned family members.

During 20 years Dr. Brown every occasion helped me dramatically. Thus, he recognizes that I have Atrial Fibrillation (AF). Treated me initially with the best medications. Then after trend mill test, found that I have dangerous conditions that should be treated by heart ablation. 3 years I am free from AF. He has a very systematic approach to treatment. His extreme friendly attitude helped me through difficult time. In conclusion, He is an excellent doctor and I feel very lucky to have him.
