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.

Dr. Bray has treated me for 24 years for RA. He actively listens and is a compassionate physician that evaluates my issues and gives me options and side effects of possible treatments or actions. Dr. Bray spends the appropriate amount of time accessing my condition at every appointment and answers my questions thoroughly. I 100% trust his recommendations for my healthcare and live a good life, despite RA, as a result of Dr. Bray’s expertise over the years. His assistant is also excellent. Tasha is friendly, responds quickly to calls, medicine refills, questions, etc. Together they make an efficient team, second to none!

He is not very professional and prescribed drugs based on how low cost they were instead of working with the patient snd side effects from the drugs he prescribed. He is not willing to spend the time to come up with a treatment plan. When I requested to see another MD in the practice because they were in network I was denied. I would avoid Dr. Bray and the practice if you have arthritis. Find a practice that is willing to listen and spend the time to develop a treatment plan. It isn’t necessary to live in pain.

Dr. Bray saw me for a total of five minutes. Yes, where he proceeded to give me the same diagnosis of Fibromyalgia. Now, my neurologist at Mayo Clinic informed me that you cannot have both Small Fiber Neuropathy and Fibromyalgia. So, this is the second time that I was let down by a doctor at this clinic. Honestly, I would avoid this practice and rheumatologist all together unless you have been diagnosed with a known condition that they can treat or you won't receive help from them.

My visits with Dr Bray are very helpful. He always know what concerns me and he takes the time that I feel very taken care of. He always reassure me that he will take care of testing new medication and can get what ever I need.
