"Where aging was once considered beyond human understanding, there now appears to be a startling simplicity: aging is not programmed in us like a doomsday clock or an inescapable result of life's wear and tear...and, for the most part, aging is reversible."
- Ronald Kotulak and Peter Gorner, "Aging on Hold," The Chicago Tribune
The Nevada Center of Anti-Aging Medicine
The Nevada Center is a unique medical health and fitness clinic designed to measure, treat, and retard the aging process. Each individualized program begins with an in depth analysis of metabolic status, hormonal status, and age related bio-marker status. This is followed by the formulation of an individualized program of the necessary rejuvenation therapies. We leave nothing out! And we don’t have a one-size-fits-all mentality. Our goal is to offer all the latest diagnostic and regenerative therapeutics to restore youthful function and appearance, maximize quality of life, and prevent the diseases and infirmities of aging.

The Rate and Extent of Aging Is Not Inevitable
 As one renowned researcher in the aging process, Dr. Ward Dean, once said, “Aging is the only disease that everyone gets.” Sure we will all age and die one day, but how soon and to what extent that happens is determined by several known factors. Preventing aging is just like preventing any disease. By manipulating the factors that cause the aging process, aging can be delayed and even reversed. Dr. Shallenberger says, “If thirty years of medicine has taught me one thing, it's that prevention is the only medicine that makes any real sense. No one wants to live forever, but most of us would like to live our "golden years" free from the disease and frailty that we so commonly see.”
John's Case
John (the name is fictitious, but the case is not) is a 64 year old man who loves life. He came to the clinic because he wants to be as healthy as he can be. He has known us for several years, and knows that being healthy is a lot more than just not being sick.
John had the usual symptoms typical of a man his age, noting a decrease in his physical and mental performance from what he had enjoyed as a young man. His comprehensive anti-aging evaluation revealed a healthy man with various commonly seen biochemical and hormonal imbalances.
His biological age was 76. That means that even though he was healthy and getting along just fine, his body had aged to the point that he was producing energy with an efficiency comparable to the average 76 year old. In the long run, this energy deficit was putting John's health in serious jeopardy. John knew he wasn't getting any younger, but he had underestimated just how fast he was losing ground over the years.
When he received the news John's response was, "I don't care what I have to do Doc, I just want to be healthy thirty years from now." Armed with this motivation and the information from his assessment, we established a targeted, individualized nutritional, hormonal, dietary, and exercise program for John.
The good news is that John really responded rapidly. Six months later his biological age was measured at 54, and he was feeling and performing on a much higher level than he had experienced for quite a few years. Within six months his body had gone from functioning like a 76 year old to that of a man over 20 years younger.
John's case is not all that unusual, and just underlines how effective currently available anti-aging strategies can be. Additionally, not only is he feeling better, but he has also reversed every single disease risk factor that we discovered. Taking care of sick people year after year made us realize long ago that improving vitality and preventing disease is a lot better than even the most remarkable cure.
Is This For Me?
 The advanced anti-aging program offered at The Nevada Center is for anyone who is willing to spend some time, money, and energy earlier in life in order to reap the same rewards later. This is a lifetime program based on an individualized program of proper diet, exercise, hormonal replacement, and supplements.
Anti-Aging Modalities
Out of Town Patients
Patients come to The Nevada Center from all over the world. The Center is located in the beautiful Sierra Nevada mountain range, just minutes from Lake Tahoe, and makes an ideal winter and summer vacation destination. Why not combine your visit with some fun? Out of town patients should have an initial telephone consultation to determine how best to handle your care.
Cost
In a sense, the discussion of cost seems rather meaningless, since the real value of having health and vitality cannot be estimated. Additionally, the cost of being well is always much less than the cost of being ill. Notwithstanding these facts, if you just give us a call, we can give you an approximation of what it will cost to get you on an effective anti-aging program. This is because fees vary depending on each individual case.
