Age Management Medicine

Age management is not about living longer – it is about remaining PRODUCTIVE and ENGAGED despite your age. It is about not accepting the age related loss of VITALITY so often experienced with aging.

Age management medicine (AMM) is based on the concept that sufficient medical evidence reveals that we can improve the quality of life by delaying the onset of the signs and symptoms associated with aging. While we may not be able to increase longevity, we are able to prevent premature disability and death while enjoying a better quality of life.

AMM is focused on regaining and maintaining optimal health and vigor. Issues associated with aging - from body composition and energy levels, to brain and sexual function - are largely due to metabolic and hormonal deficiencies, along with increasing levels of oxidation / chronic inflammation.

Whereas traditional medicine practices a fix-it-when-it-breaks or diagnose-and-treat approach, AMM incorporates well-known and accepted markers of disease risk into proactive patient management; increasing metabolism, optimizing hormones, and decreasing oxidation / chronic inflammation. AMM emphasizes the enhancement of health over the treatment of illness, allowing for a more dynamic life through middle age and beyond.

Although age management services are not covered under traditional health insurance plans, the costs may be reimbursable expenses under health reimbursement or health savings accounts. Additionally, like all out-of-pocket health expenses, these expenses maybe tax deductible. (We recommend consultation with your tax advisor.)

Nor do the quarterly or semi-annual monitoring visits replace routine visits to you regular physician.
