Patient Satisfaction
Leave a review
How likely are you to recommend Dr. Brewer?
I saw Dr. Brewer for the first time today at Piedmont Urgent care. I was extremely impressed with his compassion and knowledge. He truly cares about the patient and not just the business of medicine. He listened to me and seemed to immediately be" in my corner". He was willing to go beyond the standard care you usually receive at an "urgent care" facility. For an Urgent care setting, he is an exceptional doctor. The Athens area needs more doctors like him.
