Dr. Braimon has been a game changer in my diabetes healthcare journey. Under her care I have been able to reach my goals. Her appointments are never rushed, she listens to concerns and works with the patient to achieve their best health. She and her team respond quickly to any questions or concerns. Highly recommend her practice.

Angela was excellent. She reviewed in detail my meds. Checked my current A1C.  Talked about the medication side effects and how to use the pen. Performed a diabetic nerve exam.  She was easy to talk to. She listened and then answered my questions. She was busy but took the time to make sure all questions were addressed.

Rachel is an outstanding clinician who has successfully managed my diabetes for over 20 years. She always takes into consideration not only clinical information from her discipline but also from others. She’s an ace. Followed her to Middleton. It was the right thing to do.
