Longevity FAQs

​

1. What makes your approach different from traditional psychiatry or longevity clinics?

 

I don’t just treat symptoms—I optimize your entire biological, metabolic, and cognitive health for long-term performance. My approach is precision-based, data-driven, and concierge-level, meaning you get personalized, high-touch care designed around your specific biomarkers, lifestyle, and goals. This isn’t a cookie-cutter health plan. It’s a custom strategy for longevity and peak function.

 

2. Do you take insurance?

 

No. Insurance limits the kind of care I provide. Longevity and optimization require deep, personalized analysis and cutting-edge interventions, which traditional insurance models don’t cover. That said, I can provide a superbill for you to submit to your insurance provider for potential out-of-network reimbursement.

 

3. What’s included in your longevity programs?

 

Each plan is completely customized, but typically includes:

✅ Comprehensive biomarker testing & analysis (hormonal, metabolic, cognitive)

✅ Personalized nutrition, supplementation, and fasting strategies

✅ Cognitive optimization, nootropics, and neuroprotective protocols

✅ Metabolic health tracking (insulin sensitivity, cardiovascular function, VO2 max)

✅ Ongoing adjustments based on lab data & real-world outcomes

 

This isn’t a one-and-done appointment—it’s continuous, high-level optimization.

 

4. How long should I commit to a program?

 

Minimum: 3 months.

​

That’s the amount of time it takes to get real, measurable progress. Many clients continue for 6–12 months to fine-tune their optimization plans, track results over time, and integrate longevity strategies into their lifestyle.

 

5. Do you offer one-time consultations?

 

Yes, but true longevity optimization requires ongoing refinement. You can start with an Initial Longevity Assessment (90 minutes, $750) to get a deep-dive analysis and personalized strategy. If you just need quick adjustments, I offer 25-minute ($250) and 50-minute ($350) follow-ups.

 

6. Do I have to be in Washington, D.C. to work with you?

 

No. I offer virtual consultations for patients outside of D.C. However, some services (such as certain lab testing and treatments) may require in-person visits or coordination with local providers.

 

7. Do you prescribe medications or hormone therapy?

 

Yes, if clinically appropriate. I integrate traditional psychiatric and medical treatments with longevity-focused interventions, but my approach prioritizes root-cause optimization before prescriptions. If medication or hormone therapy aligns with your goals and biomarkers, I’ll incorporate it into your plan.

 

8. What kind of testing do you offer?

 

I use advanced, functional lab testing to get a high-resolution view of your health. This includes:

​

🧠 Cognitive & Neurotransmitter Testing – Processing speed, executive function, dopamine, and neuroinflammation markers.

🔥 Metabolic & Longevity Biomarkers – Insulin sensitivity, LDL-P, ApoB, CRP, fasting glucose, VO2 max.

🩸 Hormonal Optimization – Testosterone, DHEA, thyroid function, cortisol balance.

🔬 Genetic & Epigenetic Testing – APOE4 (Alzheimer’s risk), methylation, and longevity gene expression.

📊 Wearable & AI-Integrated Tracking – HRV, sleep cycles, continuous glucose monitoring (CGM).

 

9. Do you work with executives, athletes, or biohackers?

 

Yes. Many of my patients are high-functioning professionals, entrepreneurs, and athletes looking to sustain peak mental and physical performance for decades. Whether you’re optimizing for longevity, resilience, or focus, I take a high-performance, science-driven approach to getting you the best results.

 

10. What’s the first step?

 

📅 Book an Initial Longevity Assessment (90 minutes, $750). That’s where I analyze your history, recommend key biomarker testing, and outline a strategy for cognitive, metabolic, and whole-body optimization.
