I used to have Dr. Brink as a primary physician, and he was very caring and thorough. He took time to answer all my questions and didn't treat me as just a number trying to get me in and out as fast as he could some times it was quickly but if I had questions he took the time to explain it to me. I really miss his caring ways, and he also had a wonderful sense of humor..I wish I knew where he went, because I would follow

I doubt you can find a more competent, clear-thinking diagnostician. Treats you like an intelligent human, able to communicate the complex in a clear, understandable manner, and never makes you feel like you are taking too much of his time. Thank you, Dr. Brink!
