‘Every doctor should be a longevity doctor’

Longevity Docs founder wants to build a global network of longevity doctors to democratize evidence-based longevity medicine.

Next month in New York will play host to a physician-only conference focused on precision and evidence-based longevity medicine. The Longevity Docs Mastermind event is exclusively for medical doctors with an interest in learning about the latest developments in longevity medicine and sharing experiences with like-minded practitioners from around the world.

This is the first event associated with Longevity Docs, a growing global network of physicians with a common goal: to democratize longevity medicine and improve human healthspan.

My take on this: Longevity Docs started out as a WhatsApp group comprising a handful of doctors with an interest in longevity. It has since evolved into a global decentralized platform for knowledge sharing and discussion around evidence-based longevity medicine. The organization was founded by Dr David Luu, a trained cardiac surgeon with a passion for longevity. We caught up with Luu to learn more about the origins of Longevity Docs, and what it hopes to accomplish.

The basic concepts of prevention and longevity medicine are simple. So simple, in fact, that one wonders why it’s taken so long for the world to start coming around to them.

“I guess we call it ‘longevity medicine’ now, but I think all medicine should be longevity medicine,” he says. “In addition to treating you when you’re sick, all medicine should be focused on predicting and preventing disease and educating you on how to live a longer and healthier life.”
