Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep the reviews trustworthy, honest & fair.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

Dr. Brown changed my life. I do not say that casually; he helped me "Unpack Some Bags" (more like steamer trunks) that I have been dragging around for 25+ years. He has an amazing amount of experience and is truly a leader in his field, and therefore has many different approaches that he can adapt to provide the best treatment that is tailored specifically to your needs. One of the most surprising treatments I received is called ETT - Emotional Transformation Therapy. Do yourself a favor and ask him about it. I am not in any way diminishing Dr. Brown's traditional Psychotherapy skills... but ETT really worked on me. Bear in mind, I went in with a completely open mind, no expectations or bias. If you are considering ETT, I would recommend you do the same. Leave all stigma's and preconceptions at the door, and be receptive to making positive changes in your life. Linda is amazing, very helpful and caring, completely opposite experience I have had with other doctors. Highly recommended!!

Dr Brown and his staff are outstanding. Making an appointment was easy, I was seen very quickly, they made the transfer of my out of state records a smooth process. Dr Brown is a great listener, patient, explains conditions well and is very thorough and detailed. I would highly recommend this doctor.
