Such a wonderful caring and personable person. My daughter had severe eczema since birth. We had been to dermatologist all over the state of Kentucky and none of them even acted concerned about her condition. We found Dr Brown and he is definitely the best around ! He said she was probably in his worst top 5 patients . He is the only one that has ever gotten skin looking this good. 16 years later he is still the best 10 out of 10. WE LOVE HIM!!!
