Report
After moving to a new area, I needed a new primary care physician, and decided to rely on reviews to find one. Dr. Briones had high marks in the reviews and after my experience with her, I am sorry I trusted the reviews as this was one of the absolute worst experiences I've had with any doctor in my nearly 40 years of life. My sister and I decided to use Dr. Briones for our annual physicals. Upon arriving 15 minutes early at her office, the receptionist asked if I had filled out the new patient paperwork through ZocDoc. I didn't realize it was required, so she handed us the paperwork on a clipboard

I have been going to Dr Briones for 6-7 years as both my bariatric MD and my PCP. She has always been supportive and sensitive to my needs and never makes you feel guilty when you gain weight. Dr Briones always takes the time to talk with you at every appointment to make sure you are doing well. She will even reach out to you if she doesnt hear from you. I would highly recommend her as a physician.

Dr. Briones is compassionate, kind, caring, positive and supportive!! I cannot say enough about how wonderful she and her staff have been. One of the few doctors that really "get it" about weight loss and how to treat patients like people.
