The Concierge Society · The Longevity Question Every Patient Is Asking

Shared from The Concierge Society, a sister society on Doctoloop. We believe the best care happens when our societies learn from each other, so every Doctoloop member is welcome to join.

How to answer it with evidence, in the exam room, when the internet got there first.

Patients now arrive with expanded panels, full body MRIs, biological age scores and a protocol they got from an app. They want an answer that day. Longevity medicine has become a marketplace, and the physician is the one left explaining what is worth doing and what is worth skipping.

Dr. Michael P. Carson has been teaching that answer for years. In this session he lays out the framework he uses in his own practice: what the evidence supports, what it does not, and how to say so without losing the patient's trust.

What we will cover

• The longevity that gets sold, and the longevity that holds up in the literature
• Dr. Carson's four focus areas, and what he actually measures
• Why grip strength and body composition belong in an annual exam
• Testing patients ask for: what to order, what to explain, what to decline
• Answering "my influencer said" in a way that keeps the relationship intact

Who it is for

Concierge and independent physicians, and any clinician whose patients are already asking. Questions welcome throughout.
