After a decade in traditional family medicine, Dr. Upton realized the limitations of the conventional “disease-based” model and transitioned to a proactive approach focused on hormone optimization and longevity. He explains why falling within the “normal” range on a lab test doesn’t mean your health is optimal, and how he uses comprehensive testing combined with deep listening to help patients truly feel their best.
