Dr. Brown was friendly, patient and answered all of my questions. I felt confident in her level of expertise to manage my dermatology issues.
I was very satisfied
Verified patient
I was highly disappointed. I believe true healthcare professionals put their patients and their health as the priority. Dr Brown barely took a moment to educate me on any of the things I was concerned about with my skin. This was my first appointment ever to the dermatologist and I didn’t expect the very first question out of her mouth to be “so what would you like me to do prescribe you an antibiotic?” I typically look to understand the root cause of the problem to attempt a holistic approach to resolve and when I explained this to the doctor she not only laughed at me but somewhat mocked me for even saying anything like that. It was not the experience I expected.
Verified patient
My visit with Dr. Brown was amazing!!! She listened to my problem and immediately gave me a solution that will work well for me. She definitely me feel comfortable.
Verified patient
Dr. Brown asked about my concerns and offered her advice. She was insightful and professional. However, I still didn't get new results or hear anything new to help treat my condition. I was hoping that would be the case since I went to a previous dermatologist I wasn't too thrilled over. I guess I'll just keep seeking help elsewhere but I have nothing negative to say about her assistance.
Verified patient
Shortest wait time ever and she was very kind.
Verified patient
Positive. Quick. Friendly
Verified patient
Excellent Dr !!!
Verified patient
I had gone to another Dr who actually couldn’t diagnose my symptoms. I went to see Dr Brown as I wasn’t convinced.It took Dr Brown 5 minutes to tell me what’s going on and gave me some prescriptions . I will always be a patient .
Verified patient
A good experience!!
Verified patient
Not that this should be a standard but even when I was late by 10 minutes I was still able to be seen and quickly seen such that I was able to be on time for work today. dr. Brown genuinely heard my concern and shared insight about my options to treat my issue and that's now she has a new patient who will be coming back
I had some concerns when I went to see Dr. Brown, but she reassured me after she examined me and gave me medication for my problem. Problem solved!
Verified patient
I think that there was no solution for my issue and I probably should have done more research on finding a really good Dermatologist.
Verified patient
My first time seeing Dr. Brown was great! Super quick, great listener and very attentive. She also has a great staff. I was in and out in under 30 minutes
Verified patient
Excellent
Verified patient
Dr. Brown is knowledgeable and easy to talk to. She has helped me treat on and off acne for the past 2.5 years, and I always appreciate her willingness to find a solution that works for me. My only complaint is that the office is often very busy, so the wait can be long but the actual visit very short.
Great and quick
Vey fast and efficient!
Verified patient
I had to wait forever and a day to see this unprofessional lady and then was billed incorrectly by her sorry office staff. Also, she insinuated that I wear extensions because my hairline is thin! What kind of unprofessional mess is that?!
Verified patient
Dr. Brown has great bedside manner. She listened to my concerns, showed she was actively listening, and then provided her professional recommendation and alternatives. I'm confident in the treatment plan she suggested.
Verified patient
Loved it. Quick, thorough, & simple.
Great!
