Dr. Brower was my doctor when I had a 20 lb. liposarcoma that was attached to my kidney, intestines and adrenal gland. I can say that he was the best thing that ever happened to me. I thought I was going to die and he said he was going to save me. He did and I couldn't have had better care. He is the very best.
