I have been a patient of Dr. Brodie’s for nearly 14 years. I have many specialized healthy issues that he helps me navigate with confidence. He listens to everything I have to say, no matter how trivial, and determines the best care for me. He takes all aspects into consideration such as work or relationship stress, and does not discount the impact of those things on physical health. I feel safe knowing that he is my doctor and I refer friends and family to him regularly, when they have become frustrated or disillusioned by their primary doctor. On top of all this, he is very funny and able to calm me down during any tense situation. I can’t thank him enough for the care he has given me all these years.

Went in for a visa panel exam. A breast exam is not a requirement. I was asked to lie down and without consent or explanation he was giving me a breast exam. Felt taken advantage of.

I would never go back to this physician. He took advantage of me. I was in for a Visa Physical and he tried giving me a breast exam. Breast exams are most certainly not a part of a Visa Physical. I am reporting him. Beware.
