Ep 361 Medicine 3.0 & How to Improve Longevity | Dr Alexandra Curran

Episode 361 hosts Dr Alexandra Curran (Cosmetic Physician and co-founder of Bespoke Longevity & Aesthetic Medicine, Australia)  Alex shares her journey from hospital to aesthetic medicine and the launch of her clinic in 2024. We explore what longevity medicine actually means and what services her clinic offers. We discuss the roles of advanced screening, imaging, blood testing, strength, mobility and cognitive assessments for diagnostic purposes and how these are interpreted to create personalised treatment plans for patients.  We also ask about the evidence for some of the services provided, the impact of finding 'incidentalomas' in patients and debate the economics of nvestigating seemingly healthy patients. *]:pointer-events-auto R6Vx5W_threadScrollVars scroll-mb-[calc(var(--scroll-root-safe-area-inset-bottom,0px)+var(--thread-response-height))] scroll-mt-[calc(var(--header-height)+min(200px,max(70px,20svh)))]" dir="auto" data-turn-id= "request-69c4e055-cf80-8321-bb5b-e7abe90214a6-1" data-turn-id-container= "request-69c4e055-cf80-8321-bb5b-e7abe90214a6-1" data-testid= "conversation-turn-524" data-turn="assistant"> 00:00 Introduction 00:41 Longevity Episode Overview 02:03 Meet Dr Alexandra Curran 02:59 From Hospital To Aesthetics 06:40 Building A Longevity Clinic 08:59 Choosing Devices And Treatments 16:42 Longevity Packages And Pricing 20:25 Hormones And Peptides 22:46 Training As A Longevity Doctor 27:30 Evidence And The NAD Debate 34:07 Growing A Longevity Clinic 35:20 Longevity Scans And Success Stories 40:43 Biohacking And Supplements 43:23 Future Of Longevity Medicine 46:19 Business Lessons And Knowing The Numbers 48:58 Regenerative Aesthetics Debate 50:16 Polynucleotides And Exosomes 51:01 AI In Medicine And Clinics 54:26 Burnout And Delegation 57:10 Wrap Up And Community Plug DOWNLOAD OUR NEW APP IA COMMUNITY: DOWNLOAD FOR APPLE DEVICES DOWNLOAD FOR ANDROID DEVICES THEN ACTIVATE A FREE 30 DAY SUBSCRIPTION (after you've downloaded the app and signed up for free): FOR HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS FOR BUSINESS OWNERS/NON-CLINICAL PROFESSIONALS EXPLORE OUR WEBSITE: CLICK HERE
