A longevity doctor in Charlotte who reads your biology, not a protocol.

A longevity doctor compares your biology to optimal physiology, not to disease thresholds, and treats what is drifting. The work is to find the early signal long before a diagnosis: subclinical inflammation, metabolic drift, hormone changes, nutrient gaps, gut dysfunction. Once you find them, you intervene. In my practice, that work begins with reading the data you already have, ordering what is missing, and writing a Precision Health Plan that prioritizes by impact.

I am a physician. Board-certified family physician, fully certified in Health Optimization Medicine, with an active NPI and the ability to order labs, prescribe, and coordinate with your other physicians. I am not a coach, a nurse practitioner, or a wellness brand.

The typical longevity clinic is protocol-driven. You walk in, you get the panel, you get the IVs, you get the same supplements as everyone else. My practice is physician-only and built around your data. There is no protocol. The Plan is written specifically from what your biology is saying.

No, and that is deliberate. The ladder starts at a single lab panel and climbs only as far as you want: an establishing consultation, credited if you go further, then the Deep Dive, then the practice itself. Talk to me and I will give you the numbers for your situation. The all-in numbers are always itemized: a published fee, plus testing that passes through at my actual cost with the invoice visible, and I make $0 markup on anything I order. I don't bundle five-figure whole-body scans the way many longevity memberships do, so you are not paying for imaging you may not need. Cash-pay, with itemized superbills for out-of-network reimbursement.

In my practice, the standard baseline is four panels: Metabolomix+ (organic acids, amino acids, oxidative stress), the GI Effects gut panel, a food sensitivity panel, and an advanced blood panel that includes ApoB, Lp(a), hs-CRP, fasting insulin, comprehensive thyroid, and a full hormone panel. We test, intervene, re-test on the cadence your goals require.

The in-home establishing consultation and the house calls are a signature of the Charlotte metro. Outside the metro, the rest runs fully virtually across North Carolina, with testing collected at home and drawn locally. Either way, you work directly with me.
