My best experience with a doctor in Santa Fe. He was considerate, took time with me and the office staff was great too.
Verified patient
Very short time with the Doctor, but that was appropriate as the focus of the visit was a complete physical that was conducted by his highly competent and friendly staff. Expect to spend more time with him going over the results.

We saw Danny and he was great, as always. Courteous, respectful, professional. Treats you like a pal.
Verified patient
Dr. Brown has been my physician for 12 years. He's an excellent diagnostician and a good guy as well.
Quick diagnosis and immediate referral which went well. Bedside manner? Professional, but hasty.
He needs to have a live telephone receptionist. Leaving a message rarely gets a callback.
He gave me additional information regarding diabitis and referred me for additional tests ,

Verified patient
Outstanding Doctor, with excellent staff and medical services.
Great staff & Doctor. Friendly professional enviroment.
Great office staff, friendly & welcoming environment.
Very short time with the Doctor, but that was appropriate as the focus of the visit was a complete physical that was conducted by his highly competent and friendly staff. Expect to spend more time with him going over the results.
Office staff is efficient and polite and respectful. They proceed in an orderly manner. Visits with Dr. Brown are always brief, but are appropriate and he addresses the issues and concerns appropriately.
Dr. Brown is a good listener and you can tell he keeps up with the latest medical research. While I wish he were more aware of alternative medicine, he is open to hearing about it. He is cautious about prescription medicine and tries to recommend things that have been around awhile and don't cause many side effects. I was sent through the most comprehensive testing I've ever received for my annual: treadmill, imaging of my retina to check for heart problems or strokes possibilities, mri of heart, checking arteries for plaque, and lots of blood work. So, if you have to wait, it's worth it. You walk in if you are sick, no appointment needed.
Verified patient
Good visit. Office staff efficient and thorough
Verified patient
Would highly recommend Dr. Brown.
Verified patient
I'm very happy that he now provides the convenience of having a lab for blood work and an allergist in his office; his associates were very helpful, especially Shelly and Tina.
Verified patient
I like Dr. Brown very much. He's thorough and very concerned; a patient couldn't ask for more. However, I've waited up to 1and 1/2 hours to be seen by him. At one visit I never heard my name being called to go back to the exam room, and was told the tech called me twice and I never heard it. The waiting room is always busy and chaotic and one never knows if a patient who comes in after you is seen before you because there is more than one doctor and you just sit there wondering why all these people who came in after you have seen a doctor and left and you're still there. Walk-ins are also welcome so why get an appointment? You end up sitting and waiting a long time every time you go. There has to be a better way to run the office.
Verified patient
Great from start to finish!
Dr, Brown was lovely and I felt well cared for.
Verified patient
Dr. Brown is both competent and compassionate. I've used him as my primary GP for about 6 years and have nothing but high praise for his ability to diagnose and treat complex problems.
Verified patient
I was impressed with the professionalism of the office within a casual setting. This was my first visit so it will take time to give a definitive evaluation.
Verified patient
Professional, Thorough. Good discussion on treatment merits. Rushed, like all docs these days but all my questions were answered and issues that were not on my question list were addressed, ie. preventative care.
Long wait, but was attentive to my issue.
Very professional and caring as always!
Verified patient
Once I saw the doctor it was quick and easy. The receptionist welcomed me by name. The intake person was garbled on how to write the Rx because it is a months supply written for three different months.
Dr, Brown has been an excellent doctor and I continue to use his practice even though I now live much closer to a city with numerous practices. He makes good decisions about when it is best for the patient to consider specialists. He has been my doctor for 10+ years.
It was my good fortune to find Dr. Brown and his fine staff... The people of Santa Fe are blessed to have access to such an outstanding doctor... The folks here are simply the best!
Verified patient
Dr. Brown seems smart and focussed and he asked good questions and responded appropriately. I felt able to talk easily to him and will have no qualms about consulting him in the future. I am glad he will be my doctor. There was a long wait for this appointment, but I don't think it was bad planning. I think there were a couple of patients who needed intensive help. I don't ever mind waiting for that sort of thing. I want the doctor to help me that way too if I should require it.
Verified patient
For someone who has not seen a doctor in fifteen years, the visit with Dr. Brown and his staff was very pleasant, calm and professional. I am happy to call him my primary physician.
Verified patient
Zoc Doc made it easy to schedule an appointment with this doctor, whose practice does not have a "live" receptionist on the phone. However, I scheduled my appointment for 7am, the doctor didn't arrive until 7:10am, and nursing support arrived even later. Maybe 7am appointments shouldn't be an option.
The ZocDoc offered an appointment time that turned out not to be available. I received a call to reschedule and come a different time. I called back to confirm but did not get a live person. I left a message that I would show at the new time. Once I got to the office, the front desk never received word that I was supposed to be that at the new time. I really like the doctor, but he practice is very poorly run and is not patient driven.
Verified patient
Very helpful and efficient as always.
Verified patient
After repeatedly asking, I was given a printout of my lab tests and given no interpretation or of any results including those ranked as too excessive. However, there is considerable busyness at all corners. My outcome was not serious.
Verified patient
Very good. Always happy with JMS
Satisfied and very professional.
