Welcome to Maryland Weight Care where we aim to be your Maryland Weight Loss solution. After ten years caring for patients suffering from end-stage illnesses such as strokes, heart attacks, and kidney failure in the emergency room and seeing her own father suffer a stroke due to long-standing diabetes and excess weight, Dr. Parisi wanted to focus more of her career on helping patients prevent these complications. With lifestyle changes and treatment of metabolic illnesses like obesity, diabetes, and hypertension, much of the long-term complications can be prevented. But lifestyle change is hard. Often, our current healthcare system is not built to focus on prevention. She founded Maryland Weight Care with prevention in mind, understanding that the key to a long, healthy life is focusing on metabolic health.

Dr. Parisi graduated top scholar in her college in Biochemistry at Purdue University. She attended medical school at Johns Hopkins University and completed her residency at Johns Hopkins Hospital. She is a Diplomate of the American Board of Obesity Medicine and is a member of the Obesity Medicine Association. Currently, she lives with her husband and three kids in Howard County, Maryland and enjoys Crossfit and gardening in her spare time.
