Excellent as always!
Top notch care, friendly service.
I am so lucky to have found Dr. Brown through the recommendation of a good friend 7 years ago. Dr. Brown and all of her staff are fabulous. Everyone here is professional, gentle and kind. Dr. Brown clearly leads by example.I am VERY sensitive and prior to coming to Dr. Brown's practice, for 30 years of cleanings (starting when I was a teenager in Pennsylvania) I used to have nitrous-oxide gas to cope with the stress of cleaning. Sometimes I paid $50 extra for the nitrous when I moved around and had to find dentists in new towns etc. and it was at that time mandatory for me. After my first two cleanings at Dr. Brown's office, I felt secure enough to take a chance to get a cleaning without gas. The hygienist applied a topical numbing cream along my gumline. Since that visit, I have never had nitrous oxide gas again. During the last 6-7 years as a patient in this practice I actually am relaxed as I have such confidence in the gentleness of all the hygienists at Dr. Brown's office. They all do a thorough job - my teeth look and feel great.Dr. Brown notices details about my oral health, and my health in general, and explains issues in a way that a layperson can appreciate. She is meticulous and clearly taking courses as new methods and techniques develop. She also clearly keeps up with the latest research and literature and shares her knowledge with you as needed.
I have major jaw issues (long story). Dr Brown has been helping me to find a solution. her attention to every little detail is pretty impressive. I also like my teeth cleaning from Ben (who is always sporting a good looking pair of shoes) -- this is what clean feels like. Dr Brown and her team really take care of their customers.
Dr.Brown and staff are the best group of dental professionals I have encountered. I always have the best experience when having my teeth cleaned by Debbie. She is gentle and so efficient in her doing her work. Wonderful experiences with Dr. Brown and I always look forward to seeing her.
I have a very long and very complicated dental care history. Not that I was trying to save money - I did go to the best dentist I could find. It is sadly the standard of dental profession right now. Just because you spend $$$$ doesn't mean you get best care. I visited 6 or 7 dentist to get to the bottom of what needed to be corrected and how best to go about it. I did months of research.After meeting with doctor Brown I felt that she was the ONLY option if I wanted the job to be done 100 percent. She does not take easy or fast or cheap way out. She is with you every step of the way. Day and night. Weekends and after hours. She works so hard to make sure you will end up with BEAUTIFUL and HEALTHY smile. A friend had some cosmetic work done at another clinic - which I was considering initially - I can tell you right now that my temporary restorations look 100 percent better than my friend's permenent ceramic crowns. Yes, that office had neck pillows and pretty stuff in the office but I'm so glad I went with Dr. Brown. She will run and get you pillow if you like. And she will get you lunch if you get hungry (yes, I spent enough hours in her chair that I needed lunch break). She is truly an amazing person, very well respected in her field and very dedicated to getting as close as humanly possible to perfection. Invest your money and time wisely. You will be glad later in life. I wish I found her years ago.
As a child who feared and loathed the dentist, it's amazing that I have none of that now as an adult and it's all because of Dr. Brown and everyone in her office. Incredible level of care and a very comforting environment packed with wonderful people leads to an outstanding dental experience.No one likes going to the dentist (Sorry Dr. Brown) but I no longer look at my calendar and think "aw, man, not again!" But most importantly, the level of care and knowledge Dr. Brown and her staff bring puts you immediately at ease and she has guided me through the best dental advice I have ever had. Thank you. I trust her implicitly and never feel like I'm not getting all of the story regarding my care.
Dr. Katherine is the ultimate professional. She met with me several times on an emergency basis when I needed immediate dental care. It was on a weekend and she came in very early to accommodate me. She also indicated I might have a sleep problem that I was not aware of. Without her expertise and care I would not have been directed to seek further help as I was unaware of this. Warm, engaging, highly knowledgeable is how I would describe Dr. Brown. She can't find anyone better!
I have been going to Dr. Leary for many years and he has been terrific, and it has only gotten better with the addition of Dr. Brown and the rest of the team. Excellent experience.
Dr. Brown's practice is all about extraordinary skill mixed with humor and excellent communication! I actually have FUN during my dental appointments with Dr. Brown (and during my cleaning appointments with Debbie). No kidding! Dr. Brown pays incredible attention to her patients. We've all been in this situation: sitting in "the chair", wanting the dentist to stop for a minute, either because we need to ask/tell them something, or "just because". Dr. Brown has some kind of supernatural ability to know when you need her to stop. The work Dr. Brown does is SUPERB every single time. Meticulous and perfect. Period. I especially appreciate that she assigns levels of urgency to each piece of work that needs to be done, allowing her patients to make the most informed decisions about what to do next, depending on time and budget availability. Dr. Brown looks at you as a complete human being at every visit. When life throws you curve balls, she has practical solutions ranging from the more simple ones like how to get better home oral care done in spite of yourself, to the more complicated ones like helping to resolve a health problem related to head/neck musculature that is affected by chewing muscles. Her staff is terrific. Like Dr. Brown, they, too, have very high standards AND are fun to be around! Many thanks to Liz, Sarah and Debbie.
Dr. Leary's practice has been excellent for years. Dr. Brown is yet another absolute rock star at the practice: super-smart, articulate, patient...very impressive. The administrative staff is sharp. Jill and Briana, the dental hygienists (the ones I have had) are fabulous...skilled, funny, informative...absolutely solid. Look, when I see a dentist appointment on my calendar, I wish I was going to be out of town. However, dealing with tremendous professionals like these makes the process SO much better. Cannot recommend this ENTIRE team highly enough.
Just met Dr. Brown last week when I had a dental emergency. My previous dentist is retiring, and referred her to me. She worked me into her schedule the morning I called, diagnosed the issue, and developed a treatment plan that I started the same day. Dr. Brown is extremely knowledgable about dentistry and current best practices. Her staff is friendly and efficient.
This group provides not only great cleaning but amazingly successful long-term care.
I am a dentist and know how dentistry should be done and whether the results are good or not. I chose Dr. Brown because of the superior quality of care that she and her staff provide. I drive 149 miles one way to be sure that I am getting the best care possible. If you live closer than that, lucky you!
I have been a patient in this practice since 1978 (when it was owned by Dr. Lazier, then purchased by Dr. Leary and now transitioning to Dr. Brown). I have always found the staff to be pleasant and efficient, and the practice keeps up with latest technology and advancements in dental care. My favorite hygienist ever, Joan, is gentle and thorough.
As always, great teeth cleaning experience. Really thorough, confident and gentle hygienists. Staff is always helpful, professional and friendly. And Dr. Brown is the best dentist I've ever had -- always so patient and concerned about each procedure she has done to my teeth, which has been extensive and very successful. I highly recommend using this dental office!
I was taken care of promptly and cheerfully. Debbie did my cleaning and as always she did it sensitively and painlessly, which I greatly appreciate. Dr. Brown is always careful and responsive in her examinations.
Dr. Brown is the best dentist I've ever been to! I refer all my friends to her! She is meticulously thorough and even gave me a referral for a sleep study, which was causing me to grind my teeth in my sleep. I actually just left her office after a cleaning and a new, state-of-the-art filling procedure that took only 15 minutes. I didn't even need anesthesia! The entire staff is so knowledgeable and friendly and I'll never go anywhere else as long as I live in the Bay Area.
I've had a few appointments with Dr. Brown now and I can say she is the best dentist I have had out of about a half dozen. Let me start out by saying that I have a fair bit of anxiety about going to the dentist. Dr. Brown puts me at ease. She seems to genuinely care about me and is always willing to take time to explain any treatment I've needed. I went to her on friends recommendation and because her office is so close. I'm so glad I found this dental office!
She is brilliant. I have been seeing her for 8 years. She is dedicated, warm, meticulous, and a perfectionist in what she does--which is exactly what you want in a dentist. (It also helps that she has a great sense of humor and a fantastic personality.)
This group provides not only great cleaning but amazingly successful long-term care.
A friend of mine had been recommending Dr. Brown for over a year to me but being lazy and comfortable with my dentist of 10 years, I ignored his advice for a bit.But then my dentist announced he was retiring, and around that time he also said that one of my porcelain onlays, which he had done within the past 3 years, had broken and would have to be replaced.I figured it was as good a time as any to try a new dentist, so I called Dr. Brown. The initial visit was *extremely* thorough. She went through a comprehensive evaluation of total health, not just oral health. She also went through my x-rays with me, and pointed out why my relatively new onlay probably broke (combination of me grinding my teeth in a certain pattern, and slightly sloppy work by my old dentist). She then identified a few other things that needed fixing, assigned levels of urgency to them, and let me make decisions about when to get work done, according to urgency, my budget and my tolerance for dental visits.She was as meticulous, thorough, educated, genuine, and caring as any professional I'd ever encountered in any field. She was an absolute perfectionist in her work, explained everything clearly and patiently, and followed up the next day with a phone call to ensure everything was ok. Unless I move out of the country, i'm pretty confident i'll be going to dr. brown for the rest of my life, which given that she is a few years younger than me, should work out OK for me.A few things to note:- She is somewhat on the pricier end. You do get what you pay for, though: Dr. Brown herself does a lot of the tasks that a lot of other dentists assign hygienists to do. She also uses the best labs. That costs more. In any case, it probably saves money in the long run - if only she'd done my original onlays, I probably wouldn't have to get them re-done. And by vigilantly maintaining my tooth & gum health now, that will save me surgeries later. Given the growing body of evidence that shows how linked oral health is to overall health, I will happily pay for the best care.- If your idea of a nice dental office is one that has TV on the ceiling, keep looking. You'll get the finest quality of care here, and that's the focus. - She accepts insurance, though isn't in-network on any plan, i think. Also, you have to pay up front, and then they'll bill insurance and your insurance will reimburse you.In sum: For people who are looking for the absolute best in dental care, I could not possibly recommend anyone more highly.
I've been going to Dr. Brown for over a year and she has been wonderful. Great work and explains everything. I would highly recommend her.
Dr. Brown is an excellent dentist very kind and very thorough. Debbie the hygienist is wonderful and one of the best. The rest of the staff is very wonderful and excellent at their job. I would recommended this office who is looking for a kind and caring dentist and great staff
