Dr. Sean Brugman is a most competent and compassionate doctor. He was very thorough with his examination and questions. He listens well and is concerned that you, the patient, understands the diagnosis and treatment plan. I am confident that my hand issue will be resolved in a timely manner. I highly recommend him to anyone needing a hand specialist.

Phenomenal doctor. He seemed either upset or rushed yesterday. Hope he is doing alright. I've been seen twice now by Dr Brugman. Genuinely nice guy. He's helped me substantially with my medical needs really going above and beyond to make sure I understand everything. Update Dr Brugman is still the best. He reviewed all my my treatment and kindly gave next steps supporting me regardless of what I choose.
