Preventive and longevity medicineCare today for the life you want to keep living.
The Maximum Life is a preventive and longevity medicine practice based in Bay Harbor Islands, in the Miami area, and available to members in multiple U.S. states. We work with you for at least one year, bringing together advanced diagnostic resources, guidance from the medical team, and continuous human support in a model of care shaped around you.
What longevity means here
Longevity means preserving the ability to live well for longer.
The longevity we pursue is not only about the number of years you live. It is the ability to keep doing what you love, preserve your autonomy, and be present for the people who matter. The medical team helps you understand what you can do today to protect those possibilities over time.
01 Keep doing what you love
Preserve the capacity to move, travel, work, create, and continue the activities that bring pleasure and meaning to your life.
02 Live independently for longer
Protect your health and functional capacity so you can move through the years with greater independence, confidence, and participation.
03 Be present for the people who matter
Create more opportunities to share time, plans, and experiences with the people you love.
04 Feel the difference every day
Pursue greater energy, balance, and well-being so longevity can be felt in daily life.
These intentions guide the care. Each person's path and results vary, so the plan is followed and adjusted over time.

Dr. Frank Lipman, Chief Medical Officer
Our origin
Our founder's personal experience shaped a more human and connected model of care.
After moving from Brazil to the United States, Priscila developed an autoimmune disease. A long search for answers left her feeling confused and isolated, moving between appointments without the understanding and support she needed.
Dr. Frank Lipman helped her understand her health and manage her condition. He took the time to listen and look beyond an isolated symptom. That experience shaped the practice she wanted to build: preventive care, access to medical expertise, and support that continues between appointments. Today, Dr. Lipman is The Maximum Life's Chief Medical Officer.
01 Care before something becomes urgent
Our goal is to recognize risks before they become problems, act on what can be changed, and strengthen what supports your health over time. Preventive care can help reduce disease risk and preserve performance, physical capacity, and autonomy for the future.
02 Bring the right people together
The team coordinates physicians, specialists, and diagnostic partners around each member. Records, recommendations, and follow-up stay organized so the member has help with the next step.
03 Personal, human support throughout your care
A result or recommendation becomes useful only when you understand what it means and know what to do next. Coordination, organization, and follow-through are therefore part of the care, including between appointments.
The first year
Care becomes more precise as the team gets to know you better. We begin by understanding the present through your history, context, and diagnostics selected by the medical team. The care team and MAX Companion, the member app, support execution between appointments, and what the team learns from how you respond makes the care more individualized.
01 DecodeBuild a complete picture
Your history, goals, and diagnostics selected by the medical team create a baseline. Biomarkers, genetics, imaging, body composition, cardiorespiratory capacity, and sleep or recovery data are included when they help answer a clinical question.
02 DesignA plan around you
With the baseline in place, the medical team connects the findings to what you want to preserve, improve, or return to doing. Priorities reflect your body, routine, and current moment instead of beginning with a generic protocol.
03 DoTurn the plan into action
A plan on paper matters only when it becomes possible in real life. The team coordinates testing, protocols, and specialists, answers questions, and supports you through the next steps needed to carry out what was agreed.
04 DeepenHow your body responds
You learn to recognize how your body responds to changes and protocols recommended by the medical team. Symptoms, habits, data, and new results show what is working and what needs to be adjusted across nutrition, movement, sleep, recovery, or, when clinically appropriate, hormones and peptides.
Diagnostics with purpose
Advanced diagnostics, selected for a clear clinical purpose.
We are living through a convergence of medicine, technology, and diagnostic resources that did not exist or were not widely accessible until recently. The Maximum Life brings together carefully selected partners and puts these resources to work in an individualized assessment. The medical team selects what may deepen the understanding of your health, interprets the results in context, and uses them to inform decisions about your care plan.
Not every diagnostic is part of every program. Selection depends on your history, goals, level of care, availability, and the medical team's clinical judgment.
Understand the diagnostics
Genetics, age, and systems
- Genetics and genomics
- Biological age, epigenetics, and Systems Age
- Neurocognitive function assessment
Biomarkers and hormones
- Biomarker, nutrient, and hormone panels
- Gut microbiome and environmental toxicants
- Expanded hormone assessments
- Multi-cancer early detection blood testing, when clinically appropriate
Performance and monitoring
- VO₂ Max and resting metabolism
- Continuous glucose monitoring
- Sleep assessment and wearable data
The Six Foundations
Prevention also depends on what happens outside the clinic. The medical details matter, but daily life is where a plan does its work. Six foundations organize that work, and the plan connects each one to your own data, routine, and goals.
Nutrition
What you eat shapes daily energy, metabolic health, and long-term risk.
Guidance starts from your labs, history, and routine rather than from a generic diet.
Movement
Strength and cardiorespiratory fitness are closely tied to independence and capacity in the decades ahead.
Capacity is measured first, then built through training that fits your body and your schedule.
Sleep
Sleep is when the body repairs, regulates hormones, and consolidates memory.
It is assessed through history and wearable data and adjusted as part of the plan.
Recovery and resilience
Stress that never unwinds accumulates in the body and works against every other effort.
Stress load is treated as a health signal, with practices that help restore capacity.
Connection and purpose
Strong relationships and a sense of purpose are consistently associated with longer, healthier lives.
They belong in the plan, not outside it.
Inner-life practices
How you pay attention shapes how the nervous system carries pressure.
Attention, breath, and reflection support the steadiness the rest of the plan depends on.
Levels of Care
Continuum, Core, and Elite are three annual levels of care. Each follows the same principle: understand the full picture, set individual priorities, support execution, and adjust the plan over time.
Continuum
Starting at $5,500 per year
Begins with your existing health history and test results, including records from outside the United States. The medical team organizes that information, identifies relevant gaps, and recommends additional diagnostics only when they may change the understanding or the plan.
What Continuum includesCore
Starting at $12,200 per year
Establishes a broader longevity baseline by combining diagnostics, interpretation by the medical team, and follow-through during the year for people who want to go beyond a one-time checkup.
What Core includesElite
Starting at $24,300 per year
Provides the greatest diagnostic depth and the most closely coordinated follow-up, with priority access and logistics organized around the member's routine.
What Elite includesIncluded when you want it: Urgent and emergency care, specialist referrals, and coordination with your existing clinicians can be built into any membership. We include them when you want them and coordinate them through our partners, including Sollis Health, and some of these services may be covered by your insurance.
Final scope is confirmed during a private orientation.
A connected network
The best care does not always happen in one place, but it should remain part of the same conversation.
The Maximum Life combines a clinic in Bay Harbor Islands with a carefully built network of physicians, specialists, diagnostic centers, and partners. Our team makes the connections, organizes the information, and follows the next steps so you do not have to navigate a fragmented system alone.
Members join from multiple U.S. states. Medical care is provided by a physician licensed in the state where you are located, so eligibility is confirmed individually before enrollment.
Partners are not a menu. Availability and clinical indication vary; the medical team integrates them only when appropriate.

Common Questions
A baseline you can act on. Feeling well and knowing where your risks are can be different things. The medical team helps you see the full picture early, act on what can be changed, and protect capacity, energy, and independence for the decades ahead.
A checkup produces a snapshot. We work with you for at least one year: findings are interpreted in context, turned into a plan, supported in daily life, and revisited as your data and life change.
We are based in Bay Harbor Islands, in the Miami area, and available to members in multiple U.S. states. Eligibility depends on location and physician licensure and is confirmed before enrollment. New locations are planned for Coconut Grove and Boca Raton.
Continuum, Core, and Elite are annual levels of care starting at $5,500, $12,200, and $24,300 per year. Each combines diagnostics selected by the medical team, interpretation, a personal plan, and support through the year, including the care team and MAX Companion. Final scope is confirmed during a private orientation.
No. We focus on preventive and longevity medicine and do not replace primary, urgent, or emergency care. With your permission, the team coordinates with your existing clinicians and shares relevant findings. Urgent and emergency care and specialist referrals can be built into your membership and coordinated through our partners, including Sollis Health.
A conversation. We learn about your goals and explain how the care could work in practice. You do not need to decide anything before you understand how the model works.
To See Whether It Fits
A first conversation helps us understand your goals and explain how care could work in practice. The team presents the current annual levels, explains what each includes, and discusses the level of support that best fits your current needs. You do not need to decide anything before you understand how the model works.
