“I expected to See Dr. Brown. I saw a substitute. Although the replacement was knowledgeable and addressed the reasons for my visit... I expected to see Dr. Brown. I wasn't informed that she wouldn't be at the location where I'd seen her previously. Not having this information ahead of time did not allow me as the patient to make the decision as to whether or not i wanted to see another Doctor. ”

“Even though I wasn't seen by the provider I initially chose, the person I did see was overall really helpful and friendly during my experience. I had to wait a bit, which made me late for another engagement, but they were specifically busy that day and couldn't blame them. I'm glad that that was my first experience after a long time of avoiding check-ups.”

Dr. Brown and her staff was the absolute best from the start of my appointment, to completion. Above all, they are some of the kindest humans I’ve come across, especially in healthcare. I couldn’t be more grateful for finding a Doctor that was kind, compassionate but thorough. Thank you, Dr. Brown + Staff. <3

I had a very disappointing experience. I had a telehealth appointment scheduled and was ready on time, waiting for the visit to begin. However, I never received the link or any instructions to join the appointment. While I was waiting, I even clicked the Help button in the Zocdoc patient portal to report that I had not received the link and needed assistance. Despite reaching out during the scheduled appointment time, no one contacted me, the appointment never happened, and I never received the medical care I had scheduled. What makes this even more frustrating is that I was later charged a no-show fee. I was unable to attend because I never received the link, yet I am being asked to pay as if I simply chose not to show up. Not only did I miss the care I needed, but I am now also being financially penalized for something that was completely outside of my control. I hope the clinic reviews what happened and handles situations like this more fairly in the future.

Clear listener & explainer of all my symptoms, gave great advice & referrals. Made me feel better and confident that I could get better
Verified patientVideo visit
Lovonne was very eloquent and was able to walk me through complex medical understandings with ease, which made me feel cared for and more in control of my symptoms. She was someone I could laugh while showing she was someone who took my pain seriously, and ultimately seemed as through she wanted me to get better. The telehealth system and its multiple 3rd party systems made coordination difficult but not impossible. No fault of Lovonne.

Awesome...new PCP, DR. Brown is the one.
Verified patient
Unfortunately, I can’t recommend visiting this office. My symptoms that were dismissed as “anxiety” paid me a visit to the ER for a bacterial infection. Plus the office charged me for 3 appointments (only 2 happened). The last one 1, they cancelled themselves and profusely refused to reimburse me. Negligent staff and provider.
I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Lovonne! She was incredibly caring, attentive, and took the time to listen and explain everything clearly. Her calm and professional approach made me feel very comfortable and supported throughout the entire appointment. I left feeling truly cared for and confident about my next steps — highly recommend her!
Verified patient
I had a great experience with Dr. Brown. I came in because I thought I had strep and she was thorough, she performed the instant strep test a second time to check the results, and she answered all of my questions and explained things in a way that was easy to understand. She was friendly and had a great bedside manner. I would schedule future appointments with her.
Verified patient
loved my appointment with Dr. Brown. She was a great listener from the start, gave me different sources to find specialist I need, and you can tell she cares about all i was telling her. The staff at the office were very friendly as well.
Verified patient
Easy check-in process. I went in for a sick visit and had about a 30-minute wait, but the doctor’s attentive and listening approach made it worth it. They answered all my questions, and I truly felt heard. Looking forward to establishing care here as a new patient.
My first appointment so I don't know how things will ultimately play out but so far I am excited, this is possibly the best doctor experience I have had in the US
