Over two thirds of Americans are overweight or obese. Obesity is associated with many chronic conditions including Diabetes, High Blood Pressure, Elevated Cholesterol and Sleep Apnea. Over many years of practicing Internal Medicine, Dr. Amir Alemzadeh and Dr. Nazanin Alemzadeh developed special interest in providing care for overweight and obese patients.
The physicians at Cardinal Medical Weight Loss Center develop a caring and personalized weight loss program just for you - and supervise your weight loss to ensure your safety and success.
Losing weight is associated with improved energy level, decreased risk of heart disease, decreased risk of cancer, and decrease or elimination of medications needed to treat chronic conditions associated with obesity.

Testimonials From Real Medical Weight Loss Patients
This is the only way to lose weight. I have lost over 40 pounds in 5 months and am off almost all of my medications. I still have a way to go to my goal but I feel great. Dr. Amir is excellent."

Before going to Cardinal Medical Weight Loss Center I had lost all hope.... My vision of myself was as the perpetual fat chick. All I had left was to make the best of it, crack another joke and pretend that I was not stuck in a dark tunnel. Now, 3 months after starting their physician directed (yes you see a doctor at EVERY visit) weight loss plan. I have lost 36 pounds, 12 inches off my waist, 2 dress sizes and dropped 5.9 points off my BMI. And I am not done yet!
How would I describe the program? The easiest word would be…Transformational. My Cardinal Medical Weight Loss Center experience has totally transformed the way I live my life, think about food, experience daily exercise, and consider what is possible for me. Cardinal’s problem-solving approach to weight loss is perfect for someone like me, a high achiever in all other aspects of my life. I knew what the problems were but never had the tools to fix them. Dr. Amir Alemzadeh has given me the tools to change the way I look at health and food and exercise. He has taught me that a healthy lifestyle is the only way to be physically fit and emotionally vivacious. Even as I struggle with weight issues I realize that no fad diet will “fix” me. With Cardinal’s program there are no tricks or shortcuts to being fit. What they provide is a professional staff that is intelligent, compassionate with lots of humor and the ability to extend hope. They are caring people who have insights into things I never would have thought I could ever be able to do, but I was wrong.
So, I have learned that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. It is not the train but a bright new future of health and vitality."

I have nothing but praise for the weight loss program! I have been overweight since childhood and have been on many, many various weight loss programs over the years. This is the first weight loss program that I have not had any sugar cravings. Also, the doctor and his staff have been exceptional and supportive. I would recommend this program to anyone struggling to lose weight. It's terrific!"

I have been on the weight loss program and have lost 11 pounds in 2 weeks! I feel so much better, the shakes are great and the diet isn't that restrictive. My mental outlook has improved. God bless you all!"
