I have been under Dr. Braudhurst care for over the past year and have to say, he saved my life. He is very compationate and most important thorough. He has emphasized on many ocassions to me that he is there to do what he can for me. You don't see many doctors like this anymore. He went over and beyond with helping me with my insurance company on changing a particular medication. I would highly recomend him.

You may have to wait, but once he sees you he spends a lot of time with you and explains in detail about your care and specific instructions.

On the downside, ames is lightening his patient list. ( I found another PCP but would never? find anyone so willing to share detailed information as James was, to a good listener. )
