30+ Years
As hospital systems consolidate practices across Southwest Florida, finding a truly independent physician is becoming rare. We are not owned by a hospital corporation or private equity firm. We answer only to our patients.
Diplomate, American Board of Clinical Lipidology
Southwest Florida’s premier lipidologist, dedicated to revealing and treating the 50% of cardiovascular risk missed by standard cholesterol panels. He offers Naples residents a proactive, root-cause approach to heart health unavailable elsewhere in the region.
This rigorous credential goes far beyond standard training, requiring specialized study in cholesterol metabolism, genetics, and heart attack prevention.
Most providers receive minimal training in advanced lipidology. As a Diplomate, Dr. Kordonowy does not just “manage cholesterol”—he analyzes the root causes of arterial disease to prevent cardiac events before they occur.
The Difference Between Cardiology & Lipidology
Focuses on the “Plumbing”—treating blockages after they have formed (stents, bypass).
Essential for acute care.
Focuses on the “Chemistry”—optimizing the blood environment to prevent plaque from forming in the first place.
Proactive and preventive.
We partner with your Naples cardiologist to reduce your risk profile, ensuring you never need their surgical interventions.
Standard panels miss 50% of risk. We reveal the hidden threats.
Measuring particle number is often more predictive of disease than volume.
The gold standard for assessing total atherogenic particle burden.
A genetic risk factor found in 20% of the population, resistant to diet and exercise.
Identifying Familial Hypercholesterolemia (FH) to protect future generations.
We have structured our practice to maximize the value of your time. Naples members utilize Dr. Kordonowy as a consultative extension of their healthcare team, combining deep-dive expertise with concierge convenience.
Comprehensive metabolic reviews scheduled efficiently to make your visit meaningful.
Between visits, bypass the front desk with direct cell phone access to Dr. Kordonowy – resolving most needs remotely to minimize travel.
Annual risk stratification includes CIMT scans and advanced genetic profiling.Build a relationship with your personal physician, not a roster.
Dr. Kordonowy’s advanced lipid testing revealed an Lp(a) of 180 mg/dL—my Naples cardiologist never even tested for it.
My LDL was ‘normal’ but my calcium score was 350. Dr. Kordonowy explained cholesterol discordance and adjusted my treatment.
The 35-minute drive is worth it for Diplomate-level lipidology expertise. This level of specialized preventive cardiology simply doesn’t exist in Naples.
