After years of pain, doctors visits, misdiagnoses and surgeries, Dr. Cardamone effectively took all of the pain and frustration away. She spent a great amount of time listening and figuring out the best path for me to follow so that I would still be able to live a full life while being pain free. I had never heard of regenerative medicine but after seeing Dr. Cardamone, I can't recommend this treatment enough. After a few rounds of injections, I'm running 45 minutes after barely being able to run 5 without searing pain. Dr. Cardamone recommended the PIT and Ozone injections for nerve damage that I've suffered from for over 10 years. The injections were painless and for me, I felt relief the next day. She also recommended that I try CBD oil and cream which I found helped with the pain and muscle aches as well. She also suggested an excellent PT that worked on specific areas and the two were in constant contact giving me a plan that allowed me to get back to a healthy and happy life.

My experience with Dr. Cardamone was wonderful! She took the time to listen to me and explained clearly what her diagnosis was and that there were several new treatment options available to me for my upper back pain! No one ever took the time to explain my condition to me like Dr. Cardamone did and after trying a newer treatment called Perineural injection Treatment my pain is gone!
“Phenomenal Physician!”

For thirty years, I have struggled with joint pain, fatigue and migraines. I've been to a number of different doctors and tried various medications, but I've never been able to get relief. Finally, I found Dr. Cardamone. And she sent me to specialized physical therapy treating my neck and jaw pain. In addition, she put me on low-dose Naltrexone. She also did blood work and discovered that I have a mutant gene that makes it difficult to absorb B vitamins, and I was also deficient in Vitamin D. She recommended Mitovive, a supplement with magnesium and active B vitamins. I've responded really well to this. Because she took the time to listen and analyze all of my symptoms, she was able to provide a good plan of treatment...between the PT, vitaman supplements, and Naltrexone. Now my migraines are significantly better, I rarely have to take my tripan prescription. My energy level back to normal, and I don't have the joint and muscle pain I used to have, and I can stop taking prednisone.

Listened to all issues patiently. A lot of recommendations... they were all great. After experiencing pain for a few years, the results after the elimination diet, pillow and the brace are amazing. Thank you!

I was given Dr, Cardamone's name as a recommendation by someone who'd seen her give a lecture and, true to telling, meeting her was a treat. She had an understanding of my situation, my lifestyle and my needs and took all of that into consideration for her diagnosis and assistance in moving forward. I'm glad that I came and I'm happy to come again. Thank you
