I recently sought care from Dr. Brown and her team at SpinePain & Orthopedic Injury Center for a…read moreserious and complex condition. Dr. Brown is highly competent in her field. Another doctor in the BayCare system told me, "Oh, Dr. Brown? She's excellent." Based on her diagnosis and treatment, I believe it. She's action-oriented, determined, and clearly committed to making a positive impact. I also received exceptional care from one of her nurses, Jessica, who called me after hours to check on my condition. Unfortunately, my experience gets mixed from there. You'll see negative reviews of this practice, and here's my read on why. Dr. Brown is brilliantly competent, but she can come across as cold and unempathetic. I say this as a leadership psychologist (Dr. Brown -- you should reach out to me; I can help). I noticed the same thing with another assistant of hers: highly competent, but no warmth in the communication. That's not uncommon in medicine. It's unfortunate, because this team is brilliant with the Xs and Os. It's the Jills and Joes part that could use some elevation. Then came the moment I lost some trust. I had a flare-up and was in a lot of pain. I called and asked for a same-day appointment. The person at the front desk said, "I think we can get you in here or at our other facility. I'll call you back with a time." She never called. I'm guessing it was a simple oversight by someone overwhelmed with other tasks, and I could have called back myself -- that's on me. But the follow-through was Dr. Brown's responsibility. She's the leader. It was disappointing, and I lost some trust. I'm still rooting for Dr. Brown and her office, and I will try them again. Everyone makes mistakes. But this time, it will be with hesitation.

Dr.Brown is extremely knowledgeable in her field. It's most important to trust your doctor. I…read moretrust and feel comfortable with Dr. Brown. She's the best!

I have been searching for a new primary care doctor since my current Doctor is going into a…read moreconceirge patient practice. I saw a post here on Nextdoor about Dr. Daniel Pederson who has set up a new practice on Main St. Dunedin at Highland Health Center 1022 Main St. Suite A. I want to let everyone know that I immediately chose Dr. Pederson as my new primary care physician. The office is modern and the surroundings are very relaxing. There is a large screen tv in the exam room displaying tranquil scenes along with refrigerated beverages and snacks. The office staff were very friendly and accommodating. Most importantly Dr. Pederson is very pleasant and he is an excellent and patient listener as well. At no time did I feel rushed and Dr. Pederson's demeanor made me feel very relaxed and comfortable talking with him. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking a new primary care physician.

I am very strict about my medical and im an ex research investigator and not afraid to call B.S. in an open forum on ANYONE.

IF things change i will call it out in public and go elsewhere but i have received the utmost best care for the past 3yrs. May those whom have had back experiences just need to complain to AMA because there are some really good Dr.'s at the Dunedin office so just switch Dr.'s. (Ben) is awesome.

He's been great and helping my mom navigate some medical issues that she's gotten as she's gotten older. A few years back, she was in a bad accident too and had to go into a rehab center, and they even came by a few times to just check in with her. The office staff and front desk are welcoming and helpful, answering questions. And the nurses are absolutely the friendliest. The office itself is clean, very patient-friendly, and easy to navigate. Another bonus is they have onsite blood work - phlebotomist Dale is super great!

I've had nothing but positive experiences with Dr Matusewicz. She guided me through my completely…read moresuccessful cancer treatment, and I am 100% sure I would not have gotten the same treatment without her. I'm by far the healthiest I've ever been in my life now, and I have more insight into why I'm healthy than ever before... I think the negative reviews below were from people who did not fully understand the value this type of practice brings. I would not think of this practice as the ONLY practice to visit. But I would NEVER want to venture through modern medicine without the type of guidance this practice provides. You'll get the most value from this if you're someone who is proactive about their health and longevity. If you're into that - prepare for the best experience of your life. Most people don't care about their health until it's already failed. Dr Matusewicz has some miracle-patients that have recovered from crippling ailments as well -- but my point is, you have to be willing to make some small changes in your life (and not just depend on surgeries and prescriptions to reactively fix things that have failed). If you do unfortunately need to go into surgeries and prescriptions, Dr Matusewicz becomes even more necessary. I would have had my surgeries done by a junior surgeon at the local hospital if it was not for her. She sprung into action, and somehow managed to get me under one of the world's leading surgeon's knife within 72hrs of my diagnosis (at one of the world's best hospitals). I would have paid 100x what I have paid Dr Matusewicz for just this one example of how she's helped me and my family. I constantly tell people they NEED to get a Doctor like Dr Matusewicz to help them and their families. I truly feel terrible that people are forced to stumble through modern medicine without the true representation someone like her provides... But if you're expecting the same-old general care physician, who is just going to repeat whatever they were taught in med school - then this is not the practice for you. Dr Matusewicz is constantly exploring the cutting edges of nutrition, diagnostics & medicine. She will help you to achieve optimal health for LIFE - not just prescribe some random pill and call herself a savior. There's very few things I recommend more highly than her services!

I did a lot of research and had a pretty good idea of what I needed but I could not find a doctor to help me. Traditional medicine doesn't allow the time and trial required and most functional practitioners do not have the ability to prescribe the required drugs. They are limited to supplements. They cannot access all the tools available. Dr Matusewicz has both! She has the desire and intelligence to get to the root cause, AND the credentials to prescribe the appropriate drugs. In short, she has the whole toolbox and knows how to use it. She is thorough, takes plenty of time with me, and listens to what I have to say. I feel so much better than I did this time last year. I drive 35 minutes to her office despite there being a doctor with a similar practice in strolling distance to my home. I more than recommend her!

First of all you are always given her full attention.. no rushing or long waits. It is her and her two Nurse practitioners , so you never see an unfamiliar face at your visits (I love that). You can tell she truly cares and takes her time and REALLY listens when you see her . What I love is she also does female exams so no seeing a separate Doctor for that !!! I am comfortable with her and she always puts my nerves at ease. They always get me in when I need and they have a patient portal for convenience, I have never not got a response with questions or concerns ,they are always on top of it. When I moved away to Massachusetts for a year I wouldn't see another Doctor I would just see her when I was visiting home. I feel like I hit the lottery Doctor wise with her and her nurses. Thank you Dr. Moss for being the best.
