Overview

CardioMender MD has a complete, medically directed program for losing weight (the Physician Supervised Weight Loss Program) that is based on peer-reviewed research related to health, medical science, and the transformation of lifestyle. It is distinctive in that it does not exclusively use a diet as the basis for weight loss. Specifically, a diet does not consider medical issues and/or the key physiological and metabolic factors contributing to increased body weight; therefore, at CardioMender, they identify and address these root causes.

CardioMender has developed two phases of their Physician Supervised Weight Loss Program: a “Wellness Transformation” phase and a “New Lifestyle” maintenance phase. The “Wellness Transformation” phase consists of a nutritional plan tailored to the needs, preferences, lifestyle, and health conditions of the patient, supplemented as needed, along with an increase in physical activity. The “New Lifestyle” maintenance phase is intended to assist the patient with maintaining the positive results they have achieved during the “Wellness Transformation” phase.

As part of the program, patients undergo a comprehensive medical evaluation at the beginning of their participation and receive regular ongoing monitoring, including regularly scheduled follow-up appointments and support.

Yanara Diaz, FNP-BC – Family Nurse Practitioner

Yanara Diaz is board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner with more than fifteen years of experience providing health care to patients. She began her medical career as a physician in Cuba prior to transitioning into advanced practice nursing in the U.S.

After earning her medical degree from the Superior Institute of Medical Sciences in Villa Clara, Cuba, Diaz completed a Master’s of Science in Nursing (MSN) and became licensed as an Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN) and Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP).

At CardioMender, Diaz collaborates with patients to create customized plans for weight loss, incorporating education, nutrition and other long-term lifestyle changes into a weight loss program. A core component of her goal is for patients to develop an understanding of their health and create sustainable habits that will lead to long-term weight loss results.
