Functional Medicine Gets a Vegas Twist with Long Life Med’s Personalized Care
Las Vegas is widely recognized for its vibrant entertainment and fast-paced lifestyle, but the city is now gaining attention for a different kind of innovation: personalized, preventive healthcare. Long Life Med is redefining how residents approach well-being by combining functional medicine, longevity-focused strategies, and patient-centered care in one comprehensive clinic. This approach emphasizes prevention, optimization, and proactive health management for patients at every stage of life.
At the heart of Long Life Med’s philosophy is the belief that each patient’s health journey is unique. Rather than a one-size-fits-all model, the clinic offers tailored care plans integrating advanced diagnostic testing, personalized nutrition and supplement guidance, hormone balancing, peptides, regenerative therapies, and gut health optimization. Each program is designed to address root causes, not just symptoms, helping patients take control of their long-term health outcomes.
Direct Primary Care Benefits
Long Life Med operates as a Direct Primary Care (DPC) clinic, providing concierge-like attention at a more affordable cost. While the clinic delivers the attentive care often associated with concierge medicine, it is not true concierge care: DPC does not bill insurance at all and passes wholesale discounts on labs, imaging, medications, and supplements directly to patients. Unlike traditional concierge models, which require PPO insurance and bill insurance separately, DPC accepts patients with or without insurance. Members can also use pre-tax FSA or HSA funds to pay for their membership, labs, imaging, medications, and supplements.
Patients enjoy direct access to providers, often resolving concerns by text or phone without needing an in-person visit, avoiding crowded waiting rooms and unnecessary exposure to illness. While the clinic has a reception and waiting area, it is rarely used; patients go straight to the exam room and are seen immediately without double-booking. In Las Vegas, the first primary care appointment can take up to five months to schedule, with weeks-long follow-ups. At Long Life Med, patients can typically be seen the same day or the next day.
Membership Model & Small Business Plans
Enrolling in a Long Life Med membership is often more cost-effective than paying per visit. Members gain access to functional medicine and longevity services, discounted advanced therapies, and proactive wellness support. Membership benefits include urgent care access, direct provider communication, and rapid appointment scheduling. Both the DPC and Functional Medicine Plans include urgent care access, providing members with prompt attention when needed.
Long Life Med also offers the same plans to small businesses for their employees and family members for as low as $75/month. By pairing DPC with a high-deductible or catastrophic insurance plan, employers can save up to 30% on healthcare expenses while providing better care, ensuring employees utilize benefits proactively, stay healthier, and reduce absenteeism.
Functional Medicine Services & Membership Plans
Long Life Med offers several plans to support health optimization and chronic condition management:
Functional Medicine Plan ($200/month) & Executive Longevity Plan ($500/month): Includes peptide therapies, chronic condition management, hormone balancing, and gut health support. Medications and supplements are billed separately. Patients can also opt for optional IV drips to support hydration, recovery, and overall wellness.
Red Light Therapy, Hormone Therapy, & Weight Management Plans: Offered as separate plans with medications included.
Hair Restoration & Stem Cells/Exosomes: Dedicated plans, treatments included.
Gut Health & Allergy Support: Included in the Functional Medicine Plan; testing and medications billed separately.
This structured approach ensures patients know exactly which services are included in their plan while maintaining transparency regarding additional costs.
The Rise of Functional Medicine in Las Vegas
Functional medicine is increasingly recognized as an effective alternative to traditional reactive healthcare. Unlike conventional medicine, which treats individual symptoms, functional medicine considers the body as an interconnected system. It addresses the root causes of chronic conditions such as:
Fatigue
Digestive disorders & gut conditions
Hormone imbalances & chronic pain
Autoimmune issues
Mental health challenges
Diabetes & hypertension
Patients actively participate in their care, learning how lifestyle, nutrition, stress, and environmental factors affect their health. Long Life Med offers advanced testing, hormone therapy, peptides, regenerative medicine, and red light/NIR therapies to support long-term wellness, prevent illness, and optimize vitality.
What to Expect at Your First Visit
The initial appointment is thorough and educational. Patients bring medications, supplements, or photos of themselves, along with recent lab results. A comprehensive intake covers medical history, diet, lifestyle, stress, environmental factors, and current medications or supplements. A full physical exam and body composition analysis are performed, followed by advanced testing as needed (hormone levels, inflammation, nutrient balance, allergies).
Patients leave with a personalized health plan, including lifestyle guidance, therapies, and actionable steps to proactively support functional longevity.
