Longevity Medicine · Dr. Romanos Practice
A structured, physician-led assessment for long-term health, performance, and risk reduction.
Why this matters
Most medical care starts when symptoms appear. Longevity medicine starts earlier — identifying risk, optimising health, and maintaining performance over time. This is not about doing more tests. It is about doing the right ones — with a clear medical strategy.
Risk identification before symptoms appear. Proactive health maintenance, not reactive treatment.
Medical assessment by a physician — not a coach, not a wellness trend, not marketing.
Diagnostics and strategy grounded in current scientific evidence and clinical experience.
Every assessment tailored to your age, risk factors, family history, and personal goals.
Who this is for
Those with demanding careers who need to maintain physical and cognitive performance over the long term.
Those with a family background of heart disease, diabetes, or other chronic conditions requiring early intervention.
Those wanting more than a standard check-up — comprehensive metabolic, cardiovascular, and hormonal evaluation.
Those committed to optimising their health span and maintaining function, energy, and clarity into later life.
How it works
Detailed history, family risk factors, lifestyle, and current health status. We establish your individual baseline and identify key areas of focus.
Cardiovascular assessment, metabolic screening, inflammatory markers, hormonal profile, and functional capacity — tailored to your risk profile and goals.
A prioritised roadmap addressing your top risk factors and health goals — with clear steps, timelines, and measurable targets.
Personal & physician-led
Every assessment begins with an in-depth conversation — not a standard form. We take the time to understand your situation before we act.
Focus Areas
Blood pressure, lipid profile, arterial stiffness, inflammation markers, and risk stratification — identifying silent cardiovascular risk.
Blood sugar regulation, insulin sensitivity, lipid metabolism, weight status — prevention of type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome.
Thyroid, stress hormones, sex hormones — optimising energy, mood, sleep, and resilience across all life stages.
Cognitive reserve, stress resilience, sleep quality, and brain health — maintaining mental performance and emotional wellbeing.
Comparison
| Standard Check-up | Our Practice |
|---|---|
| Disease detection | Risk identification & optimisation |
| Reactive (symptoms trigger testing) | Proactive (early intervention) |
| Basic screening only | Comprehensive metabolic & cardiovascular profile |
| Standard protocol for all | Individual risk profile & goals |
| No follow-up unless abnormality found | Prioritised action plan with monitoring |
| 15–30 minutes | 60–90 minutes + results discussion |
Clarity
Not a full-body scan without indication. Not a collection of unnecessary biomarkers. Not wellness or biohacking trends. This is structured, evidence-based preventive medicine.
FAQ
Standard check-ups focus on current symptoms and basic screening. Preventive medicine is proactive — it identifies risk factors before symptoms appear, optimises metabolic and cardiovascular function, and establishes a long-term strategy for health maintenance.
High-workload professionals, individuals with family history of chronic disease, those wanting deeper health assessment, and anyone interested in maintaining long-term performance and health span.
The initial consultation lasts 60–90 minutes and includes structured history, clinical assessment, and diagnostics planning. Follow-up results discussion and plan finalisation occur within 5–10 working days.
The initial consultation and basic diagnostics are covered by mandatory health insurance (KVG). Extended preventive panels are private services — costs are always discussed transparently in advance.
No. You can book an appointment directly online. Please bring any existing medical results or previous assessments for context.
This depends on your individual risk profile and findings. Most individuals benefit from reassessment every 1–3 years, with annual monitoring if specific risk factors are identified.
From the practice
Male patient, age 45
Father had a heart attack at 55. Standard labs unremarkable (LDL 130 mg/dl). Extended panel showed: Lp(a) massively elevated, ApoB above target. Early treatment initiation and lifestyle changes — now closely monitored with cardiovascular risk significantly reduced.
Female patient, age 42
HbA1c 5.5% — "normal." But: fasting insulin significantly elevated, HOMA index 4.2. Clear insulin resistance, years before a potential diabetes diagnosis. Through targeted dietary changes and exercise: HOMA index normalised to 1.8 after 4 months.

Costs & billing
Preventive medicine consultations and standard lab work are covered by mandatory health insurance (KVG). Extended prevention panels (hormone status, micronutrients, vascular risk markers) are supplementary services from CHF 200 to CHF 500. We clarify exact costs in the initial consultation — transparent and without surprises.
If you want clarity about your long-term health, a standard check-up is often not enough. A structured medical assessment creates direction.
