“I was so pleased to be able to book a same-day appointment as a new patient and Dr. Brown was such a delight! She is very pleasant and knowledgeable; she listens and was able to pinpoint the issue I was experiencing as soon as I described my symptoms. Overall, great visit and experience. If you are looking for an Orthopedist, I highly recommend her!”

“The front staff was welcoming and told me what I needed to know to get me started. I filled out my forms and was placed in a room quickly where I met Dr. Haydée Brown. She introduced herself and listened to my full explanation about what happened. She explained everything to me with ease and clarity to the point where even a child can understand it. Super polite and would highly recommend.”
