Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Love Dr Brown. He office however is a mess. You can not talk to a person or get a return phone call no matter how many times you try. After 15 years with Dr brown I will need to find a new Dr.

Colonoscopy
I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude for the outstanding care Dr Colin Brown provided during my recent colonoscopy. From the very beginning, I was apprehensive about undergoing anesthesia, but his calm demeanor and reassuring words helped alleviate my fears.I was truly impressed by his professionalism and the respectful manner in which he treated me throughout the entire process. His thorough explanations before and after the procedure gave me confidence and peace of mind, and his ability to combine medical expertise with a personal touch made a world of difference.It is clear to me that he genuinely cares about his patients, and I feel fortunate to have been under his care. I thank him for making what could have been a stressful experience into one where I felt safe, informed, and respected.Please extend my thanks to his entire team as well, as they were also kind and attentive. I am grateful for the exceptional level of care I received and would highly recommend.

Both wife and I had a colonoscopy. I was super impressed of the whole facility. Everything worked kliije clockwork. The staff was caring, concerned and helpful. This could bot have gone smoother. Dr Brown was even better, informed you of the procedure, when it was over, cam and spent time discussing results. I reccommend Dr, Brown highly.

Terrible office staff. They don't care about your time or your needs. Always in the waiting room for what seems like hours on end. Always on hold on the phone when calling in for a long long time. Further, when I went for a 2nd opinon about a problem the dr was unable to solve, and called them after to refill a script they got offended that I saw another dr. and told me to have them fill it. Very unprofessional.

Dr. Brown is very knowledgeable and very thorough. He has no problem taking his time, looking at your entire history. I always understand why his is asking a question and feel that he cares very much for his patients. His staff is fabulous and incredible helpful. Also he referred my to an amazing group of surgeons for my gallbladder surgery. He takes all the time he needs to ensure that he has examined all angles and that you are comfortable with the plan going forward. Great experience, every time.
