Most conversations about long-term health focus on the heart, the brain, or the bones. Rarely the muscle — and that's a problem.
Sarcopenia, the progressive loss of muscle mass and strength that begins as early as your mid-thirties, is now recognized as one of the strongest independent predictors of mortality, metabolic disease, fall risk, and surgical outcomes. It outpaces osteopenia as a driver of functional decline, yet it receives a fraction of the clinical attention. Grip strength alone — a simple, reproducible measure of musculoskeletal integrity — predicts cardiovascular events, hospitalization risk, and all-cause mortality with striking consistency across the literature. Your muscle isn't just what moves you. It's what keeps you alive and functional as everything else changes.
This is the lens through which I approach performance health: not fitness for its own sake, but musculoskeletal longevity as a clinical priority. That means body composition over body weight, functional strength over aesthetic goals, and data that actually tells you something — DEXA scans for lean mass and bone density, VO2 max testing, comprehensive lab panels that look at the hormonal and inflammatory factors governing how your body builds and repairs tissue.
Some of these assessments are coordinated through trusted outside facilities. What I bring is the clinical context to interpret them, the surgical background to understand what your tissues are actually capable of, and the time to have a real conversation about what the numbers mean for you specifically.
I'm a fellowship-trained upper extremity surgeon, but I'm also a board-certified orthopedic surgeon — which means hips, knees, and spine are within my frame of reference. I'll give you an honest read on your situation and refer you to the right person when that's the right call. What you won't get is a rushed visit, a generic handout, or a recommendation that isn't grounded in what the evidence actually supports. I'm willing to discuss anything — and I'll tell you plainly what I think the literature does and doesn't show.
Strength & Endurance
Muscle is the organ of longevity. We build programs around preserving and growing it — with load strategies informed by tissue biology, not just gym convention.
Energy Optimization
Fatigue is a symptom, not a personality trait. We look at the hormonal, metabolic, and sleep-related factors that govern daily energy and address them directly.
Recovery & Repair
How well you recover determines how much you can adapt. Post-operative recovery, training load management, and biologic support are all on the table.
Personalized Plans
3, 6, and 12-month concierge options. Longer visits. Easier scheduling. A protocol built around your data, your goals, and your timeline — not a template.
Performance health at Regen ATX is built around longer visits, deeper assessments, and a relationship that compounds over time. Whether you're recovering from surgery, trying to reverse a decade of gradual decline, or optimizing from a position of relative health, the structure is the same: understand the baseline, build the protocol, monitor and adjust.
Concierge plans at 3, 6, and 12 months are available for patients who want ongoing access, easier scheduling, and continuity of care that most practices can't offer. These aren't subscription wellness packages — they're a clinical relationship with someone who knows your history, tracks your trajectory, and is reachable when something changes.
