About of Wendy A. Brown

Wendy A. Brown is a Gastroenterologist based in Melbourne, VIC, working from Level 6, 99 Commercial Road, Melbourne, VIC 3004, Australia. Her work is mainly about the gut, the food pipe, and related health issues like the liver and gut hormones. If you’re dealing with long-running stomach or bowel problems, or ongoing reflux symptoms, she helps people get a clear plan for what to do next.


In many cases, patients see her for conditions that affect digestion and comfort day to day. This can include gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), Barrett oesophagus, hiatal hernia, and swallowing or throat irritation from reflux. At times, people also come in because of gastroparesis, where the stomach doesn’t empty as it should, making meals feel slow or heavy.


Wendy also looks after people with liver and metabolic health problems. This includes non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and NASH, as well as cirrhosis when the liver has been under strain for a long time. She works alongside patients managing metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes (T2D), especially where weight and gut health overlap.


Another big part of her care is supporting people before and after stomach surgery. She treats issues around obesity and helps manage the gut side of conditions like abdominal obesity metabolic syndrome. That includes care related to procedures such as sleeve gastrectomy and gastric bypass, as well as following up after gastrectomy. Endoscopy is also part of the service, along with looking after people with oesophageal cancer and stomach cancer, where getting the right tests and tracking progress matters.


Details about experience, education, research, and clinical trials aren’t listed here. Wendy’s focus is clear though: practical, ongoing care for digestive health, liver conditions, and weight-related gut issues, with endoscopy used when it helps to understand what’s going on.
