Samantha Brand, MD
Bio
Dr. Samantha Brand is a board-certified family medicine physician with 6 years of primary care experience prior to joining Revolution Medicine.
During her 6 years of primary care, she helped her patients lose weight with both preventive strategies and medication. Her biggest joy in medicine is helping patients get off their medications and feel empowered to live longer, healthier lives.
​
With a Master’s degree in Biochemistry, Dr. Brand has a strong interest in the biochemical processes that regulate body weight. Her professional interests include the treatment and prevention of cardiometabolic diseases, such as diabetes and hypertension.
With more than 70% of people in the Tidewater area being overweight or obese, Dr. Brand recognizes that an affordable and accessible weight loss program is much needed in her community, which is why she joined Revolution Medicine. Her hope is to extend this great program to her neighbors in North Carolina.
To stay healthy, Dr. Brand speed walks wherever she goes and meal preps. She enjoys dancing and even making her own dance choreography. Most of all, she loves spending time with her husband and two children. She graduated from Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) School of Medicine and completed her residency at VCU-Brentwood Family Medicine / Riverside Regional Medical Center. She is a member of the American Academy of Family Physicians, Virginia Academy of Family Physicians, and Obesity Medical Association.
