No rushed visits. We take the time to truly listen .
Care plans tailored to your health and your life.
Reach your doctor when you need him.
Your relationship with your doc is at the heart of your care.
After more than 15 years in traditional healthcare, I’ve witnessed a system that places unnecessary burden on physicians to meet administrative targets while leaving patients feeling rushed, unheard & at times overlooked.
I believe healthcare should be truly personal & that health insurance systems should not stand in the way of a good doctor-patient relationship. As a dedicated, trusted cardiologist serving Escambia and Santa Rosa Counties, my goal is to treat patients as if they were my own family.
From serving food to the poor in Kingston, Jamaica to volunteering in Haiti after a massive 2010 earthquake, I have always been committed to service. This is the commitment I bring to you and to every single patient I meet.

After months of severe chest pain, Dr. Brown performed a difficult surgery that changed my life and completely relieved the pain. Recently after a blackout, he quickly saw me again and determined it was a seizure, not a heart issue. Thanks to Dr. Brown and his team, my heart is stronger and I feel reassured about my health. The care and support at this office are truly excellent. I am very grateful.

Dr. Brown is the most genuine and caring doctor I have ever met. He is thorough, takes his time, listens carefully, and explains everything until you fully understand. Other doctors had given up on me, but Dr. Brown didn’t. He kept searching for answers until he found the cause and helped me get better. I truly believe he saved my life. He even called the hospital on his day off to check on me. I am deeply grateful for his care and dedication.
W Brown
Dr. Brown and his team treated my wife for a heart attack at West Florida Hospital in the middle of the night. He placed a stent and clearly explained everything he did and what needed to happen next. He visited her multiple times in the hospital to review her medications and made sure we understood each one. He is professional, kind, thoughtful, and always willing to answer questions. We are extremely grateful for his care and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a cardiologist.
Dr Brown and the staff in Cardiology were very professional and provided me with excellent care and support.

Serenity offers cardiology, internal medicine, weight management, diagnostic testing, and telemedicine services focused on personalized care.
We are "out of network" with all insurance plans. We do not have contracts with any commercial health insurance companies. We will gladly provide you with a superbill that you can submit to your insurance for reimbursement, if requested. Unfortunately, insurance reimbursement only provides for limited interaction and consultation with physicians. (This is why many physicians only spend 5-10 minutes with their patients). We are dedicated to devoting the necessary time and attention beyond what traditional insurance dictates. Cutting ties with insurance companies allows us to provide the kind of service that you deserve.
You should keep your regular insurance for any outside imaging or lab work which may be needed. Your insurance plan should cover hospitalizations & emergency room visits.
Unfortunately, we do not accept Medicare or Tricare at this time and we can only see patients < 65 years of age. This may change in the future, so kindly add your name to our mailing list and we will update you once this policy changes.
For both Cardiology & Internal Medicine, we provide an initial consultation for all patients for an a la carte fee. For ongoing care, we offer two models of care
1. Membership. Comprehensive support where you have levels of access to Dr Brown via text messaging or phone call (in between visits). Imaging tests are discounted & follow ups are included.
2. A la carte. Choose to pay per visit, if you believe this is the right fit for you
By declining to contract with insurance companies, Dr Brown is able to provide lengthy, patient-centered appointments. He is also able to keep wait times to a minimum, provide transparent pricing, and focus on individualized, preventive care without limitations.
We provide you with a Superbill to submit to your insurance for out-of-network reimbursement. You should still maintain your health insurance benefits for testing, medications, and other preventive or acute care.
We understand that schedules change, and we’re always willing to accommodate patients in these circumstances. If you realize that you have a scheduling conflict, please contact us as soon as possible to cancel or reschedule your appointment(s).
We must be contacted at least 24 hours before your scheduled appointment time. If you do not contact us > 24 hrs prior to the appointment, then additional charges may apply.
Patients: You can order your own consultation at Serenity. No referral is required. If you’ve been referred by your doctor, please ask them to reach out to Dr Brown directly for expedited care
Providers: For referring physicians, we accept patients from both FL & NY. Providers, please do not hesitate to contact us for any question or to refer a patient by phone, email or this website.
We help manage heart conditions, high blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes, preventive care, and general medical concerns.
We cover Pensacola, Pace, Milton, Gulf Breeze and Pine Forest, including Escambia & Santa Rosa Counties. We welcome patients from other surrounding neighborhoods. With telemedicine we can see patients throughout Florida.
