In my medical practice, I’ve worked with everyone from collegiate and professional athletes to older adults living with the aches and pains of aging. A common phrase I hear is, “Don’t get old,” usually from people who have watched their activity, energy, and independence decline under the weight of chronic discomfort. I have deep empathy for them—they lived the best they knew how, and I do everything I can to help with the challenges they face. Over the years, though, these encounters have led me to a different question: What could be done earlier to avoid such a difficult aging process? Can aging be improved? The answer is, yes, it can!
That question shapes not only how I practice medicine, but how I live my own life. Although I have found success as a physician and Ironman All-World triathlete, I am first and foremost a husband and father who understands that caring for my health is what allows me to fully invest in what matters most—my family and my purpose. Just as a keystone holds a structure together, there are keystones to longevity that can truly change the trajectory of a life, and my pursuit with Keystone Longevity is to identify and apply those keystones so I can remain a strong asset to my family for as long as possible. I would be honored to share those same keystones with you, so you can do the same for your life.
