Very thorough and knowledgeable. Had records and pictures from past interactions and thus was able to compare and show current status and compare from past and demonstrate progress beyond just verbal description. Helpful. Also, explained possible future treatment options should progress reverse, reiterate what to watch out for and what medication I should have on stand by.

Very thorough & attentive

The proof of whether he's good will be in the disappearance of my condition with the remedy he prescribed. If it all works as predicted, he has full marks from me. I was initially disappointed not to get and appointment quickly with the surgeon, so I chose to see the PA. Quickly. I hope to be glad I did when the condition goes away according to his prediction.

Brian Mims was amazing! I was in excruciating pain when I went to see him. He gave an initial assessment and then adjusted his recommendation based on information provided. He talked me through the procedure and spent ample time with me, also providing very detailed information after the procedure to help prevent the condition from occurring again. Brian went above and beyond to meet my medical needs.
