Longevity medicine focuses on healthspan—the years of life spent feeling strong, energetic, and functional—not just lifespan. It emphasizes early detection, prevention, and optimization of metabolic health, body composition, cardiovascular fitness, and hormonal balance using evidence-based medical care.

Excess body fat is one of the most powerful drivers of metabolic disease, cardiovascular risk, joint degeneration, cognitive decline, and accelerated aging. Reducing excess adiposity—while preserving muscle mass—can significantly improve insulin sensitivity, blood pressure, inflammatory markers, mobility, energy levels, and overall quality of life.

At Ludlow Longevity, weight loss is not about appearance. It is about improving healthspan and potentially extending lifespan by addressing one of the most modifiable risk factors for chronic disease. When approached strategically—with physician oversight, resistance training, proper nutrition, and appropriate medical therapy—fat loss can be one of the most impactful longevity interventions available.

Traditional healthcare is often reactive, treating problems once they appear. Longevity medicine is proactive, identifying risk factors years before disease develops, and preserving muscle, mobility, metabolic health, and cognitive function over time.

Yes. At Ludlow Longevity, we prioritize interventions supported by medical literature and clinical experience, focusing on established science, careful patient selection, and ongoing monitoring.

No. Adults in their 30s, 40s, and 50s often benefit most by addressing metabolic health, body composition, fitness, and hormonal balance before chronic disease develops.

We provide physician-guided, individualized care including comprehensive evaluations, targeted lab testing, and personalized plans addressing weight loss, metabolic health, hormonal balance, fitness, nutrition, sleep, and lifestyle factors—all aimed at sustainable long-term health and function.

No. While we offer medical weight loss and men’s health services, these are tools within a broader longevity strategy designed to improve metabolic health, preserve muscle, and reduce long-term health risks.

At this time, Ludlow Longevity provides telehealth services to adults physically located in California at the time of their visit. Medical licensing regulations require patients to be in the state during their consultation. As the practice grows, we may expand to additional states.

Ludlow Longevity is a cash-pay, membership-based practice. We do not contract with insurance companies. This allows us to spend more time with patients, provide highly personalized care, focus on prevention and optimization, and avoid rushed visits or restrictive treatment algorithms.

Many patients can use HSA or FSA funds for eligible services. Most accounts issue a debit card, so patients can pay directly or submit receipts for reimbursement. Patients are responsible for confirming eligibility with their plan administrator. Eligible services generally include physician visits, medical evaluations, lab testing, weight-loss treatment when medically indicated, and testosterone therapy for hypogonadism.
