Dr. Brown had been called to assist another surgeon just before my appointment but was able to come back fairly quickly (I understood the urgency). She was also able to explain the condition I have in a way that I found very reassuring. Finally, I walked away with a plan to take care of the condition and prevent it from turning into something serious. I feel very well cared for by this surgeon.
