Research directors Maria Ines<br />

Marulanda, M.D., and Ineska<br />

Freire, M.D., both from Venezuela,<br />

are also on staff. With more than<br />

10 years of experience in investigational<br />

pharmaceutical and epidemiological<br />

studies, their work is<br />

widely published in many prominent<br />

medical journals.<br />

In addition to treatment and research,<br />

nutritional classes by a<br />

registered dietitian are available<br />

on request. Nutritional counseling<br />

assists patients with proper diet for<br />

blood glucose and weight control.<br />

The staff of Endocrine Associates<br />

of Florida is dedicated to eradicating<br />

the devastating effects resulting from<br />

diabetes, obesity, hypertension, metabolic<br />

diseases and lipid disorders.<br />

To that end, patients are invited to go<br />

through a screening process for inclusion<br />

in one of the many studies conducted<br />

by Dr. Mandry and his team.<br />

The practice is currently enlisting<br />

patients interested in participating<br />

in clinical research opportunities.<br />

Benefits include additional contact<br />

visits with the doctor and health care<br />

professionals, medicines that are<br />

provided by the sponsor at no cost<br />

to the patient, and close monitoring<br />

of medical problems and progress.<br />

Patients receive a small stipend to<br />

compensate for time and duties performed,<br />

and there is no out-of-pocket<br />

expense. To find out if you qualify or<br />

to be pre-screened, call the research<br />

clinic at 407-480-4836.<br />

Beyond running their very busy<br />

office, Dr. Mandry and Kathy are<br />

active in many local community projects.<br />

They are founding members of<br />

the Central Florida Ballet and served<br />

on the board. Dr. Mandry coaches<br />

Little League baseball and is active in<br />

the Pan American Medical Society,<br />

where he served as president in<br />

2006. Kathy volunteers for the YMCA<br />

and ballet camps as a dietitian. They<br />

both are also active in their church.<br />

Endocrine Associates of Florida’s office hours are<br />

Monday through Thursday from 8 a.m.-4:30 p.m.<br />
