Longevity medicine focuses on extending healthy lifespan through proactive and preventive care, lifestyle optimization, and cutting-edge medical interventions. It goes beyond even advanced primary care because longevity clinicians also evaluate the process of aging itself as a condition to be addressed and managed. This means we sometimes utilize interventions that are not meant for any particular disease or diagnosis, for example rapamycin (an mTOR inhibitor), metformin (an AMPK activator), and many other medication and non-medication interventions.
I have been practicing via telemedicine for over five years now, as I find it is the best balance of convenience and access for my patients. There are some tests and interventions that cannot be done over a virtual platform, such as physical exams and sophisticated fitness education. I work with a curated network of trusted professionals to help with such interventions if we determine they would be valuable to your longevity program.
Our clinic offers a range of services, including comprehensive health assessments, personalized longevity plans, advanced biomarker testing, hormone optimization, nutritional counseling, exercise programs, sleep optimization, stress management, and cutting-edge therapies like custom GLP-1 agonist and rapamycin. We frequently evaluate data from wearables such as Oura, Apple Watch, and more.
Longevity medicine is beneficial for anyone interested in improving their overall health and well-being, delaying the onset of age-related conditions, and extending their healthspan. This includes individuals in their 30s, 40s, 50s, and beyond who are proactive about their health and want to optimize their lifestyle for longevity. Most importantly for our clinic, longevity medicine is for people who highly prioritize health and feeling and living well.
In our model, you have ready access to Dr. Lin either through live or asynchronous communication. The frequency of visits depends on your individual health goals and the specific interventions you're undergoing. Typically, patients start with an in-depth initial assessment and then have follow-up visits every 1-3 months as needed to monitor progress and make necessary adjustments to their plan.
