Our Process
Understanding the Raffaele Process
Our staff will guide you through the process of becoming a patient including scheduling an initial appointment for blood tests, in-office biomarking testing, and will answer any question you may have about our program.

Step 2: Complete a Blood Test
You may have your blood drawn in our office or at a local laboratory at least two weeks before your initial appointment. These results will be reviewed during your initial consultation with Dr. Raffaele.
Step 3: Physician Consultation
When you arrive for your initial consultation, a technician will conduct extensive biomarker testing of multiple systems to evaluate your physiological aging. You will then meet with Dr. Raffaele who will review your medical history, assess your symptoms, and perform a physical exam.
Step 4: PhysioAge Customized Program
Dr. Raffaele will review with you your PhysioAge results and discuss a customized, stepped treatment plan which may include hormone therapy, supplements, lifestyle recommendations, and additional testing based on your risk factors. You will also arrange to meet with our nutrition and exercise specialist. This initial consultation may take up to three hours.
Step 5: Ongoing Treatment
A follow-up consultation is scheduled approximately six weeks later to assess your progress and make any necessary adjustments. Long-term monitoring is a dynamic process of treatment recalibration based on your changes in blood levels, symptoms, performance and function.
