Primary Care

at Doctors To You — Washington, DC

About

Dr. Ernest Brown trained at Howard University School of Medicine, where he originally set his sights on emergency medicine. A third-year clerkship changed his path. During that rotation, a mentorship with one of the country's foremost house call physicians showed him that medicine could reach patients anywhere, not just inside a clinic or hospital.

He spent the following years building expertise in house call services for elderly, disabled, and underserved patients. That focus eventually led him to launch Doctors To You in 2015. Over more than two decades practicing in the DC metropolitan area, Dr. Brown has made patient-centered care the center of everything he does. He holds an MD and MS and also serves as the founder of Humans for Healthcare, a 501(c)(3) non-profit that funds mobile clinics, preventive health programs, and outreach services for under-resourced communities. His goal has always been to put medicine back in the hands of those who truly need it, and the people who truly care about delivering it.
