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.

Overall, not a very pleasant experience. I thought I was being talked down. Tried to bring up certain medical issues, but he wasn't very receptive. I'll be moving on to another physician

Covid Protocol
Phone consultation. Very thorough review of my health including review of lab workup for blood and an echo stress test done several months ago by my doctor. I turned to Dr. Brien after my daughter recommended him. He definitely understands covid much better than any other doctor I've spoken with. He sent me protocols to follow and I was back up and running after 4 days. I am in the high risk group so for sure he stands out amongst the best. While with covid, he's available 24/7 by phone. No nickel and dimming.

Dr Brian is horrible he's the most incompetent doctor I've ever went to, and I've went to plenty of doctors How many doctors can you people think of, when the Doc is working with a diabetic insulin dependent patient, and tells me that he wants to change the insulin to a new insulin so when the patient (me) calls to tell the nurse to write up the prescription for the new insulin the not so nice nurse and very disrespectful & rude She tells me that there's nothing in the report I said oh really so I'm talking out of the sky she said well there's nothing I can do the doctor is out until January & only he can ok it Then he tell me to start taking vitamins never wrote that down What? Who is this guy? The incompetence is overwhelmingly low I told him I needed a prescription filled and that they need his approval he never called He's rude and obnoxiously loud & his gatkeepers are by far are rude & disrespectful I'm planning to leave this place I would not recommend him to anyone DONT GO!!

Dr. Brien exhibits such thorough understanding of medical conditions and true and sincere care for his patients. While other Dr. Can work 9-5, he knows no time and no place if his patients urgently need him. This is also reflected in his ability to patiently answer questions, simplify complex conditions and regularly following up. Highly Recommended!!!

He’s always taking time to care about me as his patient. He listens to what my concerns are & stays on top of my various diseases which I have several. He’s kind, caring & very knowledgeable about medicine. I would highly recommend him to all of my family & friends with absolutely no hesitation. I’ve been his patient for over 10 years now. I wouldn’t want anyone else to be my primary doctor. He’s a wonderful Doctor.

Brilliant doctor who stays current with the fast paced field of medicine. Very thorough, clear explanations and all newly prescribed medicines include a two week follow-up to confirm intended results. Heads above any primary care doctor I've ever had. Am blessed to have found him and recommend him all of the time.
