"(April 2023) I called and made an apt with Dr Brown to discuss repairing my 2 umbilical hernias. On the day of my apt, the nurse that saw me before Dr Brown came in the room asked all relevant questions, including the discussion of the location of my hernias. Dr Brown came in and said "Hi, i am Dr Brown, i want to let you know that i do not repair hernias, but i am a breast specialist." She began to inform me that with my family history i am high risk for breast cancer. Soon after, suggested i schedule an Ultrasound, MRI and mammogram, as well as have a breast exam. She also highly recommended, regardless of the outcome of the imaging, that i consider a double mastectomy as a preventive measure. This may all be true, but i scheduled this apt for a hernia repair... (I should have said, "no thank you" and left at that point but alas, i did not.) The worst part was the unprofessional manor in which the breast exam occurred. After suggesting a breast exam, i told her i had just had ...
an exam from my OB a few weeks prior. She insisted she give me one because she is a breast specialist, and that they could have missed something. She stood about 5ft in front of me and requested that i remove my shirt for the exam. (I should have stopped and asked for her to step out of the room, but alas i did not.) She should have handed me a gown, and stepped out of the room to allow privacy. The exam itself was fine UNTIL she asked if my nipple had always been inverted, i respond "no, it has happened since having children/ breast feeding." She then proceeded to pinch it so hard that i flinched. She responded, "oh, did that hurt?" I could not believe how awful this experience was. I am leaving this review in hopes of preventing anyone from having this same experience. My questions are: -WHY would they proceed with this apt when they realized there was a mistake about what i was there for and what Dr. Brown specializes in? -Was she trying to sell me a surgery? -Why were typical protocols not followed for the breast exam?

"I've been a patient of Dr. Beryl Brown for over a year and I am so impressed with her professionalism, knowledge, techniques and personality. She is a very busy surgeon and enters the exam room like a ball of fire BUT she sits, listens, answers questions and gives honest information. The word cancer came into our conversations but I was lucky, I received benign results which did surprise Dr. Brown. That's okay, I'll take it. I will gladly continue with periodic appointments as long as necessary. "
