Frequently Asked questions

Want to know more? We're here to help.

Can Lifexspan be my primary care provider?



We recommend that our members retain their existing GPs for local sick care, such as routine infections, minor injuries and urgent undiagnosed issues.

Lifexspan focuses on preventive care and health optimisation, managing your overall health with regular screenings, treatments and referrals to specialists when necessary. Our comprehensive approach includes more frequent testing than traditional primary care providers, ensuring continuous and thorough monitoring of your health.

What services does Lifexspan provide?



Lifexspan provides comprehensive diagnostics, personalised health interventions, regular screenings, treatments and referrals to specialists as necessary. Our services are designed to optimise health and extend longevity.

How often will I have to undergo diagnostics?



Upon joining, you will undergo a full suite of diagnostics, followed by quarterly follow-up tests and an annual comprehensive reassessment.

What does the Lifexspan review include?



The Lifexspan review includes a thorough analysis of your blood biomarkers, genetic profile, epigenetics, microbiome, and physical and mental capabilities. This comprehensive evaluation allows us to determine the biological age of your key organs and systems, providing a detailed insight into your overall health.

How is Lifexspan different from an annual health screen?



Annual health screens typically focus on detecting specific diseases, which often become more prevalent with age. At Lifexspan, we take a holistic approach by assessing your biological age through extensive diagnostics. We then implement a multidisciplinary, evidence-based program aimed at reversing or slowing down the ageing process, providing a more comprehensive strategy for maintaining and improving overall health.

What is longevity medicine?



Longevity medicine is a proactive and comprehensive approach to healthcare that aims to maximise both lifespan and healthspan. It focuses on delaying the onset of chronic diseases and improving quality of life through interventions in nutrition, exercise, sleep, mental health and targeted medical treatments, with the ultimate goal of extending the period of life lived free from major health issues.

How does preventive medicine differ from traditional medicine?



Preventive medicine focuses on identifying and controlling risk factors to prevent diseases before they occur, whilst traditional medicine primarily deals with diagnosing and treating existing illnesses. Unlike traditional medicine's reactive approach, preventive medicine takes a proactive stance by emphasising health optimisation, comprehensive testing, and lifestyle interventions to maintain wellness and reduce the likelihood of disease development.

What is the difference between healthspan and lifespan?



Healthspan refers to the number of years a person lives in good health without chronic diseases or disabilities, while lifespan simply measures the total number of years a person lives from birth to death.

What types of diagnostics are involved in longevity medicine?



Diagnostics can include comprehensive blood tests, genetic and epigenetic testing, imaging scans, cognitive assessments and evaluations of physical fitness and metabolic health.

What role do lifestyle changes play in longevity medicine?



Lifestyle changes such as improved diet, increased physical activity, better sleep hygiene, and stress management are crucial in preventing diseases and extending both lifespan and healthspan.

What is medicine 3.0?



Answer: Medicine 3.0 is a proactive healthcare approach that focuses on disease prevention and health optimisation through personalised, data-driven strategies. It aims to extend both lifespan and healthspan by utilising advanced diagnostics, genetics and technology to identify individual risk factors early, whilst emphasising lifestyle interventions, nutrition and targeted medical treatments to maintain wellness and prevent disease development.

What are the four Ps of modern medicine?



Predictive, preventive, personalised and participatory medical care, representing a shift from reactive to proactive healthcare. This approach uses genetic and biomarker data to anticipate health issues, focuses on early interventions, tailors treatments to individuals, and empowers patients to actively engage in their health management.
