Dr. Bronner is the rare doctor that actually cares about you as a person, as opposed to simply focusing on treating a particular ailment and getting you out the door. He's thoughtful, kind, empathetic, and thinks about health holistically.

Dr. Bronner cares deeply for every one of his patients and digs deep to make sure he covers all bases. He doesn't just look at one result and decide, he makes sure to really dig deep and consider all things when suggesting treatment.

I am very thankful to have a Dr that has a strong passion for his work. Dr Bron follows up on what he says he is going to do. He also spent whatever time was needed to go through lab results and the action plan was very easily understood.
Thanks Dr Bron!

Dr. Bronner is the most wonderful Doctor and human on the planet. His bedside manner is incredible and you know you're in good hands when he's managing your care. Definitely worth the wait if he's booked out a little far. He's helped me so much over the years with weight management, my messed up knees, hormones and adrenal support. I wouldn't recommend anyone else. He is the BEST!

Dr Bronner literally changed my life for the better with his innovative treatments & genuine concern for my well being. I’ve been his patient for over 10 yrs. He embodies the true meaning of a “healer”. His desire to treat patients & improve their health & lives is fueled not by money, but by compassion and altruism. He is truly one of God’s angels here on earth!
