About William C. Brown Jr., MD

I have been practicing internal medicine for more than 30 years in the local community around Clearwater, FL. I believe that the basis for good health is healthy nutrition, exercise and preventive care. My mission as your MDVIP-affiliated physician is to provide you with a personalized plan that focuses on prevention and wellness.

I have more time to develop closer relationships with my patients. As a team, we can work together to formulate a wellness plan to help you as you work toward achieving your healthier living goals. I provide my patients an attentive patient experience with minimal waiting at your appointment time. I also offer same- or next-day appointments.

My MDVIP affiliated practice offers services, including comprehensive advanced health screenings and diagnostic tests, that go far beyond those found in a concierge medicine practice. 

I enjoy outdoor activities to maintain a healthy lifestyle. I enjoy boating, fishing, and going to the beach and parks for walks to be physically active. I also recommend a healthy diet.

My hospital affiliation is BayCare Morton Plant Hospital.

I have been seeing Dr. Brown for several decades now. He is one of the best doctors in town. When I talk to others who work with him, they are always complimentary. He has a small, but professional staff and they do everything they can to take care of patients. (When I see someone giving a negative review, I always wonder what the rest of the story is).

Dr Brown is always there when you need him. I read some negative reviews, these people have no idea what many other Dr's are like. 71 years old and i has seen so many of my friends. They are all pleased and love Brownie

Missed an important aspect of a blood test. No followup. Time to retire.

Dr. Brown has been my primary care doctor for 20 yrs. He takes time to listen & understand your medical concerns. If there is an issue that requires a specialist, he usually can refer you to a good one. I have no complaints with his care.

I saw Dr. Brown twice. As I left his office yesterday a Selena on his staff yelled at me, demanding $100.00 plus. The yelling took place at the front desk for all to see and hear. I politely told Selena that's a mistake , I have 100% coverage. She chose to tell louder pointing wildly at me. I was in excruciating pain. The entire office could hear her. I called back today to make certain the mistake was corrected, it had.

When a patient IN PAIN is yelled at that amounts to abuse. No one in Dr. Browns office seemed to think anything of Selena's behavior.

I began a support group for women to help us deal with abuse in the medical community. I won't be going back to see Dr. Brown, ever and it isn't because he misdiagnosed my pain.

Dr Brown has been my doctor for over 10 years and I love him to death! I left a message for Dr Brown to call me but I received a call from Shelly the office manager. This was the first mistake. Your doctor knows your history and what elements you have. I left Dr Browns office in silence about 6 to 8 months ago. I was going thru a lot, extremely depressed, and manic bipolar. I called the office to speak to doctor brown about this and to explain what I was going thru and talk to him as my doctor. But I guess that doesnt matter. People do things for different reasons. I just wish Dr Brown, as my doctor for years, would have reviewed my chart and called me. But instead, shelly the office manager, answered for him. She called me at 9am a d didnt even console with dr brown. This is unacceptable in my book. Here I am thinking I could at least speak to him. I never left his practice because I didnt like the service, I was going thru something only my doctor could understand. I hope someone reads this, hopefully dr brown, and I get a call back. That would be nice. Selena was the best. I wish she would have called me.

Dr. Brown was very caring, attentive and very prompt to return phone calls when we first moved to Florida from the west coast, easing all anxiety that we had about finding a good, accessible, and knowledgeable general practitioner near our home. Would recommend to anyone in the Tampa Bay Area.

Dr. Brown is knowledgeable, skilled, thorough and practical. His staff is efficient, skilled and friendly. I am thankful for the care Dr. Brown has provided to me over these many, many years (and continues to provide) and will forever be grateful for their assistance with and patient care of my elderly parent who had dementia. Thank you.

This review is specifically for his staff as I have not been seen by Dr.Brown. His reception staff Selena was extremely rude is regards to me asking if I can make an appointment. She said in the rudest tone “NoooOOoo”. On the insurance says they are accepting new patients. I then say “ What do you mean?” And she replies “ Are you SICK?!?!?”. I responded stating that I’m not, Im just trying to find a normal doctor I can go to on the regular if I’m in need, and she cuts me off saying “Hold on hold on hold on hold on” and transfers me to another lady. This was so rude to hear from a doctors office.

Dr Brown has been our physician for 2 years. He is diligent in finding the cause not just treating the symptom. Dr Brown is responsive to a patient’s needs. His staff is friendly and always willing to help.

Frequently Asked Questions

Doctors who operate in the MDVIP models typically see far fewer patients than traditional primary care doctors. That gives them more time to develop deeper doctor-patient relationships that can lead to better outcomes. They can also offer conveniences that most primary care doctors can’t, including same- and next-day appointments. They’re available after hours for urgent matters. And they have time to focus on prevention. That focus begins with the MDVIP Wellness Program, which patients pay for with their annual membership fee.

Most MDVIP-affiliated primary care practices accept insurance (your physician can tell you whether they accept your specific insurance plan). Your annual fee pays for preventive care medical services that insurance usually doesn’t cover (e.g., advanced diagnostic testing and screenings). Your MDVIP-affiliated physician will continue to bill your insurance and charge copays, co-insurances and deductibles as he or she currently does for other medical services like sick visits.

MDVIP makes wellness and prevention easier by providing your physician with innovative tools and technology. MDVIP supports your physician’s practice and seeks to eliminate barriers to a positive healthcare experience. Your doctor will determine whether and how to incorporate these tools at his/her discretion.
