So as you'll see in past reviews of mine, Dr Barry Schiff and his team at Cardiomender change my life every time I come for help! In 2009 I lost 75 lbs in just over 3 months, got off all blood pressure meds, and my cholesterol got perfect! Kept the weight off 7 years, then got into the heavy drinking party life and gained a bunch back. I went back in 2020 and lost weight for the purpose of cleaning up to party more haha! Now in 2024 I came back to doc ready to clean up and keep it off again! Too old for the games. Well I am now on day 66, and am down 52 lbs, Blood Pressure is consistently 120/80 weekly, cholesterol right back on track and I am looking and feeling great! I will be continuing forward bettering myself with Dr Barry Schiff and his team at Cardiomender! read more

Great staff and place Unfortunately i lost my job and could not continue with the program. You see results very fast.

I have been going to CardioMender for a while (I've lost 30 pounds since November), and I must say this is one of the best weight loss facilities in South Florida. Everybody from the doctors, nurses, staff, etc. are all friendly, kind, caring, and will help you meet your weight loss goals. This weight loss program is monitored by a cardiologist who makes sure that you are not only loosing weight but that you are physically healthy and your heart is healthy as well. When you start your program, they run bloodwork, EKG, and other tests, so they can find the best plan for you. Then you go in weekly to see how you're going along with your plan. The office gives you all the essentials that you need in order to become successful on your weight loss. Also they're available whenever you need them if you have any questions. Everybody the office is so motivating and amazing, you feel almost at home going in for your meetings.

This is the best weight loss plan I have ever done. There is no loosing out on your favorite foods. Yes, you cannot have sugar but, the alternatives that they offer are wonderful. the staff is excellent and they do not beat you up and tell you you are doing wrong. We are treated as adults and even if you stray, you can always go back on track immidately and you will be fine. I do not feel hungry and they do not push all the products on you to get you to spend money like other plans. This is a program that is run by a physician and they take bloodwork to ensure that you are doing well. I LOVE THIS PLACE! BEST DECISION EVER! read more

I don't usually like to leave reviews, but I figured I would let you all know this place has it figured out when it comes to weight loss. I'm a 46 year old female. I have done my fair share of diets. I've been a healthy eater for most of my life and exercised regularly, but after kids and age creeping up, my metabolism slowed down and I had become overweight. It didn't matter what diet I tried or what new exercise regimen I began...it just wouldn't work. I was fed up with my appearance and walked into CardioMender. I wanted to make sure this was not some quackery diet. Just to fill you in, I'm in the medical field and wanted a healthy, serious and safe way to lose weight. I was impressed with the first appointment including a thorough physical exam with bloodwork and EKG. This made me realize the place takes health seriously. Second, was a long discussion with the nutritionist regarding a new diet tailored for me. I was already hooked! Long story short guys, I am back to my high school weight! I feel so much better about myself! I hope this gives anyone out there some reassurance, if you stick to it I will work! read more

Words cannot express my gratitude for Cardiomender; I've struggled to lose weight for years and have given up. I've been a patient of Cardiomedner since 2018. I was successful, but because I struggle with binge eating, I went awol on the program. Since then, I have had type two diabetes and other health issues due to eating. I finally decided it was time to go back on the journey. I contacted Dr. Schiff personally, and he guided me back into the office with love. Once I restarted the program, I reconnected with Jannara, my favorite tech in the office. She is very empathetic and really cares about her patients. Lately, I've been struggling a bit, and she cares so much that we devised a plan to get more results. So far, I'm down 13 lbs and have come off some of my diabetic medication. If you are struggling to lose and want to feel at home and not judged, Cartdio Mender is the place to get help. It works if you work it! read more

I was 300 lbs and I am now at 215. They are a great group to help you out on managing weight loss. They care about your health. I recommend them to all that want to get healthy. read more

I feel terrible because I have not been able to go here in weeks, but I did go for 5 weeks and dropped 20lbs. I definitely plan on going back, but have been traveling for work. The program definitely works and everyone there is sooooooo nice. Pricey, but the weight loss is worth it. They make their own oils and vinegars and they are AMAZING! I am a foodie at heart, and picky so I would not mention that, if they were not good. I will definitely be back, and am hoping to at least maintain my weight while I am traveling, because it feels really good to see the numbers go down. Especially when it has been years since I have been stuck in the 200 club! Highly recommend this place! read more

Best decision I have made was to come to Cardio mender! I started a week before thanksgiving break, which everyone thought was crazy, however I have been trying to lose weight for a very long time and nothing worked so I gave it a try. I have lost 10 lbs since and on Thanksgiving I still ate turkey and ham. I definitely recommend this, like I said I have been trying to lose weight for a long time and nothing worked, until now. read more

Excellent system of weight loss . Ever go hungry and this program teaches you a change in life in general so that you never gain the weigh you lost again . To me it has been excellent and the food they sell there which is optional is great as well . I highly recommend this program for anyone wanting to lose some weight . read more

I am so grateful to have found this amazing weight loss center for my mother. My mother suffers from heart and thyroid problems and right before coming here she was borderline diabetic. Because of these health concerns she was very hesitant to even go to the first appointment. I guarantee she is so happy now that she listened to me and went because she has already lost 12 pounds in less than a month, has more energy than ever before, and is never hungry!!! I couldn't have thought of a more perfect place for my mother to come to. Both Dr. Schiff- an expertise in the field of Cardiology and Dr. Mazza- an extremely knowledgable Endocrinologist, and sweetheart have been able to safely assist my mom in her new healthy lifestyle and future weight loss goals. After seeing how friendly and patient the staff has been to my mom I have now decided to start the program as well and I'm extremely excited to start. Thank you Dr. Mazza and CardioMentor staff for everything you have done to make my mothers experience so pleasant, and one that she will carry on for the rest of her new healthy life! :) read more

I love Dr. Schiff's program. I started in April and after 8 weeks lost 40 pounds and 4 inches. I totaled at 50 pounds and kept it off so far. The program works and is very doable. My wife hit her goal after watching me do it and many others have gone and been successful on my recommendation. If you are thinking about it, DO IT! The money you save on food and the excellent feeling, far outweighs the cost. Just prepare to buy a new wardrobe! read more

Like all brides to be, we look for a way for quick weight loss and go to extremes. I decided to go with this internationally known diet that promises weight loss at a tremendous rate. Insurance doesn't cover it but seeing it in different news shows and reading tons of swear to by former people, I thought I would give it a try. After getting the shock of a tube inserted into my nose and wearing a feeding pack 24/7 for two weeks I was ready to see what the loss was all about. 7 lbs? I was very disappointed and definitely not worth 1500 no matter how great the service was. I heard about Cardiomender through a friend and decided to try it since in a few days the wgt I lost from this pack back liquid diet was coming back. I mean who can maintain 800 cal of 95 percent of protein? Not me! Needless to say I lost the 7 in the first week and I am learning how to keep it off. I am learning how to eat which is the real key! So far I am 20 lbs down. I have a lot to go but I know with confidence I will get there and be able to maintain. Bonus is its tax deductible! Haha love it! The staff and physicians are super supportive and are totally wonderful! Anyone who doesn't try this way of living is just wasting their time. read more

Dr. Schiff and his staff are wonderful! I came here because I was honestly fed up with being fat. I have struggled with rapid weight gain and have tried numerous fad diets in the past, this is by far the best decision I have made. I lost 35 lbs ! Something that stood out to me was how Dr Schiff gives his patients his phone #, I have never seen that before! Overall, an awesome place with real long lasting results. read more

Thanks To Cardio Mender I have brought my sexy back! After being on blood pressure meds for 10 years I no longer need them and went from a size 10/12 to a size 4 and I feel great! The program provides nutritional knowledge to make long term lifestyle changes and the staff is fantastic! Thanks Cardio Mender for making an impact in my life! read more

Great staff!!! I lost 30 pounds using their program, the doctor is very passionate about this program and he honestly cares about his clients. I would recommend this program to anyone that wants to lose weight and learn more about their body. I've tried a lot of other programs but this one was the best for me. read more

I was able to lose 20 lbs in 6 weeks. This place is AMAZING and they have a great staff! I have been able to maintain my weight as they have taught me how to eat healthier. You can't go wrong! read more

Since participating in the CardioMender MD plan, I've lost 58 lbs, my cholesterol has dropped 101 points, my blood glucose went from 96 to 88, my hemoglobin A1C dropped from 6.9 (diabetic) to 5.6 (normal) and my level of inflammation (c-reactive protein) is finally well within the normal range. I'm now a size 10, my life-threatening medical conditions have been reversed and I have an enormous amount of energy every day. I feel fantastic! The day my life changed forever was the day I discovered CardioMender MD. I've had weight issues most of my life which ultimately resulted in a number of medical conditions, including diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure and metabolic disorder. I've been under a doctor's care due to these issues for 20 years and have had blood work completed every 3-4 months during this time. Another major concern has also been my very high level of c-reactive protein (measures the level of inflammation in the body), which is a strong indicator for future cardiac arrest as well as other life threatening diseases. I've been on almost every diet out there, have lost weight and gained all or most of it back. Over the past 10 years, I've found it almost impossible to lose any weight of significance no matter what diet I tried. In recent years I've started educating myself on the major causes of the inability to lose weight and the causes of weight related medical issues by finding out what the most current medical research has discovered. I've also learned that avoiding certain foods and incorporating others into my food health plan is equally as important as weight loss to reverse medical conditions. Through books, journal articles, documentaries and various other resources, I found the answers; however, knowledge alone doesn't resolve the problem. I desperately needed a program that incorporated the latest cutting-edge medical research. I investigated various local weight loss options but couldn't find any that based their plan on the latest and most advanced medical research so I continued my quest. Then one day, I found CardioMender MD and was very impressed by what I read. I immediately scheduled a consultation with Dr. Schiff. During this consult, I was in awe of Dr. Schiff's wealth of knowledge and understanding of the causes of obesity and accompanying medical conditions, as well as what was needed to assist patients in achieving a healthy weight and in reversing their medical conditions. He was very well versed in the latest cutting-edge medical research. I immediately knew that I was in the right place and would finally be able to lose weight and reverse my medical conditions. Of course, I knew this was the answer I had been searching for and joined. Throughout my plan at Cardiomender, both Dr. Schiff and Dr. Mazza have been incredible. They are available for consults whenever requested, and I have also received phone calls just to follow-up on my most recent lab results or to answer a question. When either one of them sees me in the office, I am always made to feel like I am cared about as a person and patient. Their level of commitment is overwhelmingly evident. The staff in the office are all equally as wonderful. They are always extremely pleasant, helpful, understanding and knowledgeable. I am made to feel like I really matter. The Cardiomender Team is a winner, hands down! They changed my life in the most positive ways. By helping me reach a long sought after weight loss goal and reversing several medical conditions my quality of life has improved dramatically. read more

Dr. Schiff and Dr. Mazza are wonderful. After many years of trying diets that failed I finally succeeded for the first time ever with cardio mender and their medically supervised program. The program works if you work it. My type 2 diabetes reversed, my blood pressure went from high to normal, I no longer have foot pain, I no longer have a rapid heartbeat at rest or profuse sweating. I no longer get winded on exertion. I have energy instead of chronic fatigue syndrome. My liver enzymes are completely normal now my triglycerides are normal my sugar levels are normal. The tightness in my calves and the pain in my legs at night or no more. I have had to purchase new clothes and donate my old ones. When I first came to see Dr schiff and dr Mazza, my doctors had me on seven different medications and now I take none of them. I spent 3 years going to doctors and they were no help to me whatsoever. All they did was play around with my medicines and dosage levels and because of the side effects of the medicines I felt terrible. In just a little less than 3 months it's as if a miracle has taken place. If you are overweight and thinking about making a giant bold step to change your life, then pick up the phone and call 954 628-3802 and get started on the road to recovery and good health. My medical doctors told me I was on a path that would eventually lead to my death due to my obesity and numerous health problems and complications due to the treatment of that disease and the medications that I was taking which had terrible side effects. I honestly believe the doctor Schiff and dr Mazza have save my life and for that I will be forever grateful to them both. I no longer spend hundreds of dollars in numerous copays for doctor visits and medications. If I can do it so can you. read more

As a dad hitting my early 40s and after many years of yo-yo dieting, I finally found a program that fits my needs. The staff is very personable and Doctor Schiff genuinely cares about all of his patients. I would recommend this program to anyone who is sick of fad diets and wants to change their lifestyle read more

My daughter has struggled with her weight most of her life. She has tried different diets. Working out at the gym bike ridding among other things. I had talked to her about this program. She was excited about coming in to learning more about the program and meeting Dr. Schiff. He explained the program ran a series of test and was able to identify a serious medical problem no other doctor has ever been able to do. My daughter has a thyroid problem. She received immediately medical care. She is now loosing the weight and is receiving the proper medical care she needs. I am very thankful for Dr. Schiff and will be forever grateful. He truly cares sincerely about his patients and he is the medicine man. read more

Since starting this program I have lost over 50 pounds. The reason I started this program was because I was having many health issuing that later was diagnosed being fybromaliga. My primary doctor looked right at me and said you need to lose weight or your going to get worse. So then I said well there's this weight loss program that has supplements and a diet plan supervised by a dr I was looking into and he said do it and do it fast or your going to have significant reoccurring pain that can be helped with steroids and many other drugs but those are not good for you long term. So I reached out to Dr. Barry Schiff who was amazing. Talked to me on the phone and then went over everything with me in his office. After being on the program and losing a significant amount of weight I started to feel like my old self. The cardio Mendo program becomes much more than a weight loss program. The staff is amazing, dr Schiff is always walking around teaching what to eat how to eat. They support you with a lifestyle change it's not just a diet plan. It works! I even got my best friend on the plan who has lost 60 plus pounds. This program changed my life. I have zero health issues and my fibromyalgia constant flare ups are gone. I know believe and know it's all about what you put in your body and how to manage your diet. I wouldn't have known this or been able to do this without the team at cardio mendo. So thank you all for giving me my life back. As a career mother of 4 I had no options but to her back on track and your program made that easy! I would recommend to all and say if you listen to the dr and follow his plan you too will succeed! read more
