Reviews
Was very impressed with Dr Brown. He is a good listener and is able to explain things in a clear manner. Highly recommended.
My original meeting with Dr Brown , my subsequent operation and final assessment were carried out in a professional and supportive manner. The procedure was fully explained before I was wheeled away so that I was aware of what took place. All the staff were supportive
Explained everything with regards to my symptoms and possible treatments. It was all very easy to understand and helped me find a solution to my issues
Dr Brown has been really amazing throughout my journey with him, from first to final, post procedure consultation. He listens attentively, provides reassurance about procedures and during them, he explained everything really well and is very personable. He is also really passionate about his specialism. I thoroughly recommend him.
Despite my late arrival, Mr Brown was courteous and gave me confidence in every respect.
Dr Brown is extremely knowledgeable and makes you feel genuinely listened to. Seeing Dr Brown has made an enormous difference to me after a year of being dismissed by other doctors and not having my symptoms taken seriously. He is an absolute expert and very kind.
Dr Brown is excellent, thorough, knowledgeable, superb patient handling skills, it is a shame he can only be seen at Hampshire Clinic as that was the part that let the overall process down - I wish he consulted and operated elsewhere too. Dr Brown is clinically detailed, keen to understand patient priorities, very detailed research into my previous complicated history. He made me feel safe and valued.
Dr Brown was very informative in a way I could follow him and he listened to what I had to say ,he new straight away as soon as I mentioned what had been going on reference me operations and how I got to were I am now which was a great weight off my mind . After being in hospital 2yrs ago seeing consultant after consultant conflicting each other then taking out my gallbladder and leaving me to find out things after on my own, makes a great difference in the way he doctor Brown came across with a action and medication plus stopping medication I was on full respect cannot ask for anything better fantastic
Very happy with my consultation today. Dr Brown explained everything to me and I now understand my condition alot better. Very friendly and he has put me at ease about my upcoming procedure. Excellent doctor
I would have no hesitation in recommending Dr Brown. I found him to be very easy to talk to, a good istener, patient, thorough and efficient. He provided clear explanations and was generous with his time.
