Our practice is for people who want more from their health care—strategic, personalized medicine that protects performance, restores energy, and helps you feel great in a body that works for your life. Every new patient begins with an introductory call, followed by a comprehensive consultation, and then ongoing care options. Below is exactly how it works, what it costs, and the domains we focus on.

Intro Call

 Every new journey begins with a complimentary introductory call.  We’ll align on your goals, answer questions, and confirm we’re a great fit—so your first visit is focused and strategic.

Initial Consultation

Patients may choose to work directly with Dr. Pooja for an in-depth two-part physician consultation, or begin their journey with our experienced nurse practitioner pathway — a collaborative option designed for those who want to take action quickly with Dr. Pooja’s ongoing oversight.

  • Part 1 (2 hours): Dr. Pooja explores your complete story — health history, lifestyle, nutrition, movement, sleep, stress, work, travel, and family roles — to understand how every piece impacts your wellbeing. Targeted studies are ordered based on your biology and goals, chosen to provide clarity on your health at the deepest level.

    Part 2 (1 hour): Once results are in, Dr. Pooja reviews them with you in detail, connects the dots, and launches a precision plan that integrates into your lifestyle. Recommendations may include advanced strategies such as hormone optimization, GLP-1 therapy, peptides, and longevity protocols, alongside nutrition, fitness, and recovery plans — designed to elevate performance, energy, and long-term health.

    Part 2 (30 minutes): Your nurse practitioner guides you through results and translates them into an actionable care plan.

    What sets Dr. Pooja apart is her practice model. She does not measure success by square footage or by the number of patients seen in a day. She keeps her client panel selective and her attention focused — so that when a client walks in (or calls, or texts), they have her undivided time and expertise.

    By building a close, ongoing relationship and understanding every aspect of her patients’ lives, she can anticipate needs, tailor care with precision, and make timely adjustments that accelerate results. Every recommendation is researched, vetted, and aligned with each client’s goals — because in her world, the most important thing she can provide isn’t just access, it’s the right answers that protect and maximize her clients’ time.

    “Dr Gidwani is professional, extremely knowledgeable about the latest in longevity medicine (and basic primary care), and beyond easily accessible (so much so I wonder if she sleeps, eats, or takes time off?? :) ) It has been a dream collaborating on my care and even sharing clinical studies as I’m also a healthcare provider.. I’m a nerd and it’s fun to talk about the latest and greatest in a field that is outside of my wheelhouse. A small thing, but a major impact on my life, was when she recommended this high powered Neti pot which has literally helped me to avoid sinus surgery. I love watching her grow her practice and follow her on social media!”

    “Dr. Gidwani became my Primary Care Physician three months ago as I wanted to deal with a couple of specific issues and take a proactive approach to increasing my health-span. After an extensive initial consultation incorporating testing in multiple areas, she developed a comprehensive plan that is already bearing significant positive results. She is knowledgeable, compassionate, and empathetic, focusing on evidence-based processes, while also willing to explore more cutting edge modalities. Her concierge program is truly patient-focused. Finding that combination of qualities in a doctor is rare. I highly recommend Dr. Gidwani to anyone wanting a real partner in their healthcare.”
