After completion of a BS degree at the University of Tennessee and

care of their professional athletes including the Los Angeles Dodgers,
Los Angeles Lakers, LA Rams (now in St. Louis), the LA Kings Hockey

Dr. Brown specializes in surgery of the shoulder and uses the techniques
he learned from his teacher, world-renowned shoulder surgeon Dr.

and two daughters, Nancye and Sarah. Swim practice, running, and
church activities keep them completely occupied. Dr. Brown has been
in practice 15 years. He is a serious Duke basketball fan/supporter
without a doubt. He has run the Marine Corps Marathon twice (in
