Dr. Brutus is amazing her sensitivity and attention to detail. She is one of the best doctors I have ever come across.
April 5, 2017Shaunya H.Verified patient
Dr. Brutus was very compassionate about my medical issues when I explained them to her. She made an effort to refer me with a warm hand-off to the right type of care with same-day treatment. Her demeanor and warmth were very much appreciated.
However, I was seen by a nurse who was pretty rude to me generally, but particularly with regard to a certain medical issue with which I am struggling. She made me feel like a failure and a bad person for it and I did not appreciate such intolerance.

The nurses and Doctor Brutus were extremely friendly and helpful. That took care of me quickly and efficently, answered all my questions and made me feel very comfortable. We even had some laughs during my short visit. I would definitely recommend them!
January 29, 2016Arielle W.Verified patient
I was disappointed that my appointment was basically forgotten about. I asked if they were running behind and the nurse said "no, she's just sitting in her office" I had also seen Brutus casually going in and out of the back. I had a baby with me and waited for 40 mins before I was seen. The time spent with Brutus was about 5 min.
