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.

Doc Brotherton
He was thrall explaining all conditions of upcoming surgery. I recommend Doctor Brotherton. He has operated on me before and I didn’t have any complications after last surgery. He took care of me after surgery and called making sure I was doing OK.

Amazing
He is so friendly, inquisitive, personable and truly interested in my health issue. He's in fact finding mode and requesting multiple tests to get to the potential root of the problem with my gallbladder. I would highly recommend him to anyone plus he had a great smile!

Compassionate, explains well and diligent.
Doctor Brotherton is a great doctor. I went to see him for a colonoscopy, endoscopy and a hernia repair. During the appointment he explained everything very well, including the ct scan to me and my wife. He explained why he wants to do the scopes first and after that the hernia repair. He is very compassionate, understanding and diligent. A Doctor who is straight forward but in a nice way. His staff is also friendly and great to deal with. I would recommend him to my friends and family.

As a patient of Dr. Brotherton for an emergency gallbladder removal and follow ups, I am so happy to have been in his care. He has great bedside manner and listened to my concerns. My recovery has been smooth and you can barely see my incisions. I feel like I have been in excellent hands during a very trying time with my health and now my healing.

The Doctor knows what hes doing, but at this point in his career hes to worried about success rates versus helping the patient. If your not the right type of patient meaning you have to weight just right and not have previous surgeries then you may qualify as a patient of his. My CT Scan was perfect I just needed a hernia repaired and he said he would not operate due to my previous surgeries. Also if you go see him you may have to wait up to 2 hours before you can be seen.
