✨ Starting the new year with inspiring success! ✨ On November 6, 2023, Idonna Hines began her journey toward a healthier future with a robotic sleeve gastrectomy performed by the expert team at Maimonides using the Da Vinci robotic system. Under the care of Dr. Sergey Terushkin, Dr. Alexander Abdurakhmanov, residents, and Elana Gluzman, PA-C, Idonna achieved an incredible milestone—losing over 100 pounds and no longer needing hypertension medications! With the opening of the Maimonides Weight Management Center (MWMC) this January and our inclusion in Newsweek's 2025 list of top weight loss centers, Idonna's story serves as a powerful reminder of the life-changing impact of bariatric care that Maimonides offers our community. Here's to transformation, health, and brighter futures! 💙 #BariatricSuccess #WeightManagement #RoboticSurgery #TeamMaimo #MaimonidesHealth #BrooklynWeightLoss #MaimoMiracles

Hepatic Artery Infusion (HAI) therapy is now available at Maimonides Health. For the first time in Brooklyn, this groundbreaking treatment offers new hope to patients with metastatic colon cancer that has spread to the liver. HAI therapy delivers chemotherapy directly to the liver, enabling higher doses with fewer side effects than traditional chemotherapy. This advanced care can shrink tumors for surgical removal or reduce the risk of recurrence after surgery, transforming outcomes for patients with colorectal liver metastases or intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. We’re committed to bringing innovative treatments to our community, right here in Brooklyn. 💙 #HAITherapy #CancerCare #MetastaticColonCancer #LiverCancer #InnovativeTreatment #BrooklynHealthcare #TeamMaimo #MaimonidesHealth
