Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr Brody was my surgeon from 2012-2016 preforming 6 operations from a laparoscopic ligament release, neuro stimulator placement, a repair on the stimulator, gallbladder removal, botex stomach injection, and a stimulator removal, pyloraplasty and gadtric sleeve simultaneously…..the latter has left me requiring TPN (iv nutrition) as I never recovered from the botched procedure. In writing this I’m preparing to have an operation from a certified vascular surgeon to correct the very first surgery he preformed on me - guised as a ‘life dependent’ operation that no post-op care was given for. Dr Brody is a ‘great’ surgeon if you are easily manipulated because you desperately want help and if you’re a candidate for part of his whatever experiment he’s working on, but once he uses you up you’re thrown to the curb. Avoid him, I sure wish I had.

Dr. Brody does not even deserve a single star. He was my surgeon for a very simple procedure- removing my gallbladder. I wound up back in the hospital, via ambulance, just days later, in extreme pain. I told him it felt like more gallstones. He refused to believe me. Another doc at the hospital finally discovered via bloodwork that I likely had gallstones left behind & told me that Dr. Brody did not properly check to see if the gallstones were gone. I ended up needing a second surgery to fix it

I lost 140 LBS after my gastric bypass surgery. Dr. Brody and staff are very professional and supportive. The level of care and advise to manage my weight loss over the past three years has been extraordinary.
