About me

Dr. Brandon Pleman is a family doctor who cares for patients of all ages. He believes that effective care requires treating patients as individuals while recognizing the influences of family and community, and that physical health depends on biological, psychological, social and spiritual wellness. He also believes that teamwork among medical providers is essential to providing the best possible care.

Pleman earned his medical degree at Tufts University School of Medicine, where he also completed a residency in family medicine.

Outside of work, Pleman enjoys spending time with his family. A fan of the Zwift training app, he appreciates the blue skies and open air of the roads and trails of California after seven cold years in Boston.

      Dr. Pleman is great! Tho he was a bit late getting to me, I've learned that some docs do a complete job and it takes a bit longer! Better than having a doc who's running off to the next patient and not really listening to you!! Dr. Pleman is wonderful!
