Harvey Mishner, M.D., and Medically Supervised Wellness Programs

Dr. Mishner went to the University of Maryland Medical School, completed his training in Internal Medicine in Baltimore and became Board Certified in Internal Medicine in 1981. He started his first practice in Baltimore, 
Maryland, and in 2003 relocated to Sarasota, Florida.
 
Located at Lakewood Ranch Boulevard and SR70, the office is designed to encompass Dr. Mishner’s philosophy culled from over thirty years of practice experience - that it is “much less costly to teach wellness than to treat illness.” In 
addition to the standard examination and consultation rooms that will be 
used for Dr. Mishner’s Internal Medicine practice, it also features a 
conference room, onsite physical therapy and massage therapy and our own 
unique gym. This will allow Dr. Mishner to be able to supervise all of our 
wellness programs.
 
Although most doctors are trained to treat sickness, it has always been Dr. Mishner’s philosophy to teach and treat health, wellness and prevention.Hypertension, hyperlipidemia, heart disease, diabetes, sleep apnea and arthritis are epidemic in today’s society and all can be related to obesity, which is becoming more and more prevalent. The Metabolic Syndrome, which relates abdominal fat to cardiovascular disease, can be reversed with weight loss. By combining a weight management system of education, motivation and support along with exercise training, we can help prevent these illnesses.
 
The Medically Supervised Wellness Programs are very exciting in that patients and clients are offered a safe and healthy way to not only to lose weight but to keep it off.  Dr. Mishner supervises every person who joins the program from a medical point of view. We continuously monitor our clients’ weight, blood pressure and lab work to determine the efficacy of their lifestyle changes. In addition, Dr. Mishner maintains a flowchart of the entire group of participants, so that he can observe overall progress being made within the program, and make any adjustments if necessary. The professional staff includes wellness 
director and head trainer, Jennifer Dziob, registered dietician Christine 
Pasquali.
 

Our beautiful and professionally decorated office allows us to 
practice both conventional medicine along with our wellness programs in one 
convenient location.
