DAVID FISHMAN MD, FACP, FACC, FSCAI, FCCP, FAHA MEDICAL DIRECTOR Dr Fishman is a board certified internist and cardiologist.  He specializes in clinical, preventative, and interventional cardiology. Throughout his 30 years of practice, he became alarmed at the number of health problems he was treating as a result of obesity. Many of his patients’ lives were impacted by weight.  They experienced trouble breathing, walking, interacting socially or suffered from one of the many serious, and sometimes life threatening conditions associated with being overweight.  As a response to this epidemic, and knowing how difficult weight loss is in isolation, Dr. Fishman decided to expand his practice to combat this crisis.

Dr. Fishman is a graduate of the Loyola University and the University of Illinois.
