Transforming Health

Medicine is at a crucial inflection point.

Technological advancements have outpaced society’s capacity to understand and safely implement, leading to a prevalence of science that is effectively marketed but poorly substantiated.

This challenge inspired a small group of visionary thinkers to come together to create a longevity community rooted in credible science, collaboration, and meaningful impact.

Doc’s Origin Story

Our Mission

Advancing credible science, fostering meaningful dialogue, and catalyzing innovations that transform health(care) and improve lives.

DOC’s mission is to unite influential leaders to accelerate advancements in health, and to deliver that knowledge directly to individuals.

We believe in the power of credible science and transformative collaboration to change the trajectory of health and the longevity field in particular.

We are more than a community; we are a movement — a place where ideas are exchanged, breakthroughs are catalyzed, and the future of health is redefined by those most equipped to make it happen.

A Community, United by the Pursuit of Truth in Medicine

Each DOC participant brings unique insights and expertise to the conversation, creating a dynamic network that thrives on shared purpose and dialogue.

Members are active collaborators — shaping the future of health through meaningful participation.

From salon-style discussions to debating program topics alongside world-class Faculty and Specialists, each participant actively contributes to redefining the future of health.

We curate members of the DOC community based on two qualities:

First, do they have influence – the ability to move the needle for science in some way?

And secondly: Is this someone we’d all want to sit next to on a long flight?

DOC handpicks every member to ensure a vibrant, dynamic network embodying the core DOC values: curiosity, connection, humility, conviviality, and a strong sense of fun.

Doc Gatherings

A three-day gathering of leading clinicians, scientists, and leaders forms the heart of DOC, focusing on longevity breakthroughs.

At these gatherings, DOC Faculty lead in-depth, multi-part salon-style discussions on focused topics. These experts share a passion for the future of medicine and are committed to improving upon existing discoveries.

Alongside Faculty, DOC Specialists — leaders in business, culture, and related fields — offer critical insights and broader perspectives that enhance the conversation. Their expertise helps bridge the gap between medical advancements and the real-world challenges of scaling great science, ensuring that innovation is not only credible but also actionable.

DOC Participants are more than attendees; they are engaged contributors and conversants who bring their own expertise, curiosity, and influence to the dialogue.

Whether debating the merits of cutting-edge research, sharing lived experiences, or connecting across disciplines, every participant plays a role in shaping the discussion.
