“My passion for obesity medicine began when I was 39 years old. After four children, I looked in the mirror in tears. Depressed, self-conscious, and imprisoned by an excess of 30 pounds on my small height of 4’11”, I decided to make a change. I pledged to concentrate on obesity medicine and to develop a personalized plan to lose weight and achieve a healthy lifestyle,” said Dr. Darby.

What our patients are saying …
With Dr. Darby’s help, I was able to finally lose 40 pounds! When we met, I was tired, apprehensive and very frustrated with my weight; she helped me feel like myself again. Dr. Darby is personable, very knowledgeable, and was extremely positive and patient while we worked together.
Dr. Darby got me into this journey to better health kind of by chance and I am grateful she did. Dr. Darby is so easy to communicate with, when I have struggles, she meets me with suggestions when I have questions about how to make my program work for my life, she has answer and if she doesn’t know she will find out. She is a positive guide on my journey to better health!
I’ve been a patient of Dr. Darby’s for almost ten years and I recommend her to everyone that desires a skilled and fully committed doctor. In today’s “drive-thru doctoring”, Dr. Darby is a rare find who listens, never rushes you, thorough, kind and caring. She’s a living representation of the Hippocratic Oath who not only treats you as a person and truly cares about your overall well-being.
Not only was it a great experience, I’m learning new ways to eat healthy without starving. I learned to make eating right a lifestyle and dieting doesn’t work.
