Clinical Cardio

David Drake at Clinical Cardio is extremely knowledgeable and passionate in all aspects of cardiac health. In my eight sessions, he created hour-long individualized exercise protocols on the treadmill and stationary bicycle to meet my specific needs and goals. David guided me and monitored my heart with an EKG through every minute of exercise: warm up, high intensity and recovery periods, and finally cool down for challenging yet enjoyable workouts. He provided detailed analytical reports to both my cardiologist and me. What I also appreciated was our many discussions on life-style changes and preventive measures such as nutrition and exercise to improve not only my heart health but my overall well being. I would highly recommend David for cardiac rehabilitation and preventative care.

I highly recommend David Drake at Clinical Cardio for anyone seeking expert guidance in cardiovascular health and fitness. David combines his knowledge of cardiac wellness with advanced technology, using an EKG to monitor and guide each cardio training session safely. What sets David apart is his ability to tailor programs for a wide range of individuals--whether you're a cardiac patient in recovery, someone at risk of heart disease, or simply a healthy individual looking to optimize your cardiovascular performance. His approach is both proactive and preventative, helping clients safely build endurance, improve heart health, and gain confidence in their physical health.

David Drake is a clinical exercise physiologist who is well-versed in all aspects of cardiac health and the bio mechanics on how to improve and maintain the same. He is extremely knowledgeable, patient and helpful in guiding one to optimum cardiac health. He has helped me tremendously in a few sessions to outline and implement a successful cardiac campaign from which I already see benefits.

A couple months after suffering a heart attack, I was referred by my primary care doctor to David Drake because of my concerns about how hard I could push myself during my walking and other exercise routines. During eight sessions with David involving his monitoring my heart while I walked on a treadmill, I gradually became significantly more confident in my ability to exert myself without negative heart consequences. Also during my time working with David, I found myself walking faster during my daily walks and increasing my stamina. A positive side effect of all of this is that I began sleeping more soundly at night. I highly recommend David's services for cardiac rehab and for regaining confidence in one's ability for physical exertion. David's listening skills, concerns for the safety and health of his clients, and desire to be helpful were much appreciated. In addition to my heart related issues, he helped me with issues related to posture and my overall exercise program. Additionally, he made the sessions with him interesting and enjoyable.

Seeing David at Clinical Cardio has given me a much needed confidence boost in my physical abilities. After my OHS, I always wished I could get more cardio-rehab. Now I'm so much more inspired and less intimidated with my ongoing recovery. He has also helped my husband, who's needs are different, to feel more confident and inspired as well. He's very knowledgeable, thoughtful, caring and attentive. The workout space there and equipment are top of the line, a comfortable friendly environment.
