Dr. Brown is  a true professional Healthcare provider that cares about her patients.  She literally saved my life.  After 3 months post gastric sleeve surgery I've lost  70 plus pounds.  She's amazing and I highly recommend her.

I am 66 years old and a retired combat veteran. The medical problems started creeping up on me as the years went by. I eventually found myself with PTSD, high blood pressure, severe sleep apnea, pre-diabetic, chronic joint pain, depression, anxiety, panic attacks and morbidly obese, weighing in at 284 pounds. I felt I was on my way to a heart attack. I did the Jenny Craig yo-yo weight loss game several times. Every time I lost weight, I'd gain it back with an extra 10 pounds or so. My primary care doctor asked me if I had ever considered bariatric surgery. He described the procedure and referred me to Dr. Maria Brown. From my first meeting with her, I knew I was in the best possible care. She explained the entire procedure and outlined what I would go to to determine if I was a good candidate for the surgery. Her staff guided me through the entire pre-surgery procedure and prepared me for the huge change I would be going through in my life-style. Dr. Brown performed my gastric sleeve procedure at the end of February. Over the past 4 months, I have lost 64 pounds and I feel GREAT!!!! I am no longer pre-diabetic, no longer take blood pressure medications and no longer require my sleep apnea machine. My depression has subsided along with the anxiety and panic attacks. My pants size has gone from 44 to 42 to 40 to 38 and now, to a size 36. My shirt size has gone from XXL to XL to a large. My sleep is fantastic and I feel like I've dumped a 64 pound ruck sack from my body..l haven't felt this good in YEARS! If anyone is reading this and are trying to decide if bariatric surgery is for you, I recommend doing it! In a short time, you'll feel years younger. Your energy level will return, your self respect and confidence will return, and your life will change for the better! Good luck with your weight loss journey!

I had my 6mth po appt, and Dr Brown made me feel so proud of my journey.  Her encouragement just gives me that motivation I needed. She gave good news and I cried happy tears. Having her as my surgeon is the best decision I made for my health.

After almost a year of preparation and doing nutritionist appointments and sleep center, respiratory , finally got approved by insurance and referred to the best bariatric surgeon ever! My incisions were small -  So now the biggest challenge is slowly going back to eating with medicine cups sizes for water and protein shakes every 15 min then normal in Mid-May. . 3/28/24 was my surgery date and so far so good, minimal pain..gas is there but walking it out helps. Dr. Marie Brown and her staff made sure I was comfortable the whole time and educated me on every detail of the process.  I am so glad I did not go to Mexico for the procedure! Thank you so much to all of you!
