"I am having a total shoulder replacement soon. He explained the procedure and recovery details. I have much more confidence going into the surgery."
  • March 14, 2024
"Very positive appointment with Dr Brown. He is really friendly, listens intently and takes time with you. We have discussed multiple options for my injured shoulder and he has provided a detailed explanation of the injury. He has provided sound advise on rehabbing the shoulder with the goal to avoid surgery. So far, so good. But, if that is not successful, I will definitely be asking Dr Bown to do the surgery."

"Dr. Brown of the Core Institute and his staff is clearly the best shoulder surgeon in the Phoenix AZ area. I would highly recommend this surgeon based on the Core Institute updated Surgery Center, and Dr. Browns experience, technical knowledge, skills, and ability to achieve the correct results for his patients.

"He is very personable, kind and intelligent. Actually cares for his patients. I highly recommend him. Today I walked in, had an X-ray and was in his office within 8 minutes. That is a record. It usually isn’t to busy at CORE in SCW, usual wait time is about 10 minutes."

"Dr. John Brown is fantastic. Very personable and professional and most important, extremely knowledgeable. I had significantly hurt my shoulder and was concerned I would require surgery (that is what I had been told) and Dr. Brown diagnosed the problem, easily explained why and provided a solution that was considerably less invasive and time consuming. I am very thankful and will absolutely see or recommend him in the future."
