Rubin On Point | Setting the Record Straight: Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy | Carrie Bordinko RN BSN MD.
What’s real hyperbaric medicine — and what’s just hype?
In this episode of Rubin On Point, Dr. Dan Rubin, ND, FABNO, sits down with Dr. Carrie Bordinko, RN, BSN, MD, the visionary founder of Benessair Health, to unravel the truth about hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
Together, they explore its legitimate medical applications, its role in resilience and healing, and the dangers of unregulated hyperbaric centers popping up across the country.
Dr. Bordinko brings rare depth to the discussion. A board-certified Internal Medicine physician, she has years of experience as an ER and ICU physician, insurance medical director, and hospice director. At Benessair Health, she has built an evidence-based, personalized environment where patients are empowered to achieve optimal health and longevity.
Beyond medicine, she lives the principles she teaches—centering her life on fitness, nutrition, philanthropy, and adventurous challenges. Her passion and discipline make her not only a physician, but also an inspiration for those seeking to truly Live Better, Longer.
From safety oversight to cancer recovery, this conversation shines a light on what’s possible when hyperbaric oxygen is used responsibly—and what risks arise when it isn’t.
