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.

Best Doctor
He may be blunt and straight forward, but always willing to help and extremely knowledgeable. I see reviews saying otherwise. All I can say is you didn’t give him a chance to be an amazing doctor. He has seen me through 3 surgeries and is always helpful.

Dr. brown performed bowel resection surgery on me in 2010. He was very thorough. He visited me every day at the same time when I was in the hospital. He always took his time with me and answered all of my questions.

By far the most apathetic physician I have ever met in my life. He wants to perform surgery,and has no intellectual curiousioty pertaining to disease processes. Yes, he will perform surgery & probably do a good job.I take no issue with his physical skill set. His lack of disregard for any other option in abysmal. He has no regard for quality of life or outcomes. Unfortunately, in ABQ we have no other options. IMO he is egotistical and overinflated. He knows he is the only option and expolits it.

I was extremely pleased with Dr. Brown and would highly recommend him to anyone in need of his expertise. He provided sound advice, performed my much-needed surgeries, had outstanding follow-up, and answered all questions honestly. He also treated me like a person and not a numbered patient, plus he took time to thoroughly explain all options, procedures and the necessity of each so that we (my family & I) could make an informed decision. I just wish we had more doctors like Dr. Brown.
