    Dr. Brown was thorough in asking questions about my symptoms and took appropriate action to order diagnostic procedures to seek answers. Thanks to him, I discovered that I am anemic and that my blood work exhibited it as far back as several years...but it was never brought to my attention until this first visit with him.
