Dr. Kristi English Brown, MD

She showed up to deliver my baby, and my epidural didn’t take - I was in so much pain I could hardly breathe. She looked over at me, during a contraction while I’m pushing my son out, and says, “You don’t handle pain well, do you honey?” Then she tells me how she delivered a baby while she was in labor herself, and that she “labors like a freight train.” Literally while I’m pushing my son out. She also bragged about having a 10% episiotomy rate, which is why I chose her to be my doctor. But what she didn’t tell me was that she was going to let me rip and tear, and do a terrible job sewing me back up. My baby didn’t come flying out, there was certainly time to perform an episiotomy or at least ask me what I wanted. She didn’t care. Her bedside manner was atrocious.

She asked me if I "cared about the baby in my baby" when I asked about getting the COVID vaccine. She repeatedly talked about God and made other religiously based comments during my appointment. She made it very clear that she didn't care what I thought, wanted, etc, and actually said she is going to do what she thinks is the best decision regardless of what I would like to happen. I am now extremely anxious about the prospect of having her deliver my baby because I don't trust her intentions.

Would NOT recommend.

I use her for my yearly checkups. While the wait can be a while I think she's a great doctor and she really goes out of her way to help me, especially these last few years that I've been without insurance. She will pull out all the stops to make sure I can save some money on birth control and on my other meds. I can tell she's passionate about what she does and about her patients and really has her heart in the work. I'm happy to have her as my doctor as long as she's here.

Wish I found her sooner! She took so much time answering all my questions and explaining in detail what I was confused about. She did not rush and made me feel comfortable. I highly recommend!

I had an extremely long wait (sat in an exam room on an uncomfortable table for over 45 minutes! Im pretty sure she was sitting in her office that entire time because I could hear her chatting). This was the 2nd chance I gave this doc because the 1st time was a bad impression also. Very opinionated and doesnt take what the patient says into consideration. Im not picky but I refuse to see her again.

She is very rude and unprofessional both in the office and in the hospital. She does not listen to patient concerns at all, it's either her way or no way at all. She was my absolute least favorite provider in the office and unfortunately was the dr on call when I delivered. I had a terrible labor and delivery experience and because of it now have permanent nerve damage.
