    Dr. Brown is caring and goes above and beyond to help. One thing I appreciate is when he¿s not sure about something he admits it and tries to figure out the best solution- I appreciate that kind of honesty and transparency. He is hands down one of the best doctors I¿ve visited at this practice.
