The world's leading science-backed longevity center, powered by AI

Our mission is to transform the current healthcare system into one that is both proactive and data-driven, enabling us to boost longevity and catch and treat illnesses earlier than ever before.

Our Credo

We believe that humanity is in the midst of a healthspan revolution. Converging exponential technologies such as artificial intelligence, genomics, CRISPR, gene therapy, cellular medicine and sensors are allowing us to understand why we age and perhaps how to slow, stop and even reverse aging. We concur with experts who predict that breakthroughs before the end of this decade will enable us to add decades onto the human health span.

As such, our mission at Fountain Life is to maximize the health and vitality of our members using advanced diagnostics to catch disease at the earliest signs, enabling members to stay healthy enough to intercept the longevity breakthroughs racing towards us.

We seek to extend member healthspan by using a foundation of “functional medicine based protocols” plus an annual 150 Gb “Upload” of imaging, genetic and blood-related diagnostics. Our goal is to reliably predict future diseases and to detect any such disease at the earliest moment possible, thereby stopping and ultimately reversing its progression, returning our members to peak performance.

Our Team

Fountain believes that there is no substitution for a brilliant and thoughtful medical team delivering healthcare services. As such, we have developed an innovative care model, utilizing a vertically integrated, 6-person ‘healthcare team’. Each Fountain Member is supported by a Concierge Physician, Nurse Practitioner, and a group of four health care coordinators and coaches.

These teams are trained to the highest standards at Fountain University in accordance with A4M, the Functional Medical Institute and other cutting edge partnerships.
