Patient Reviews
Nov 01, 2018
Dr. Brusch offers an old-school blend of compassion, intelligence, and competence that has become very rare in American medicine. He is my favorite doctor of all the ones I've seen in the Boston area. He treats me with the respect of a colleague instead of being condescending and arrogant. As a result, my vists are much more productive as he listens to me and discusses medical research and treatment protocols in a way that respects my intelligence and dignity as a patient.
