About Lifetime Performance Medicine

What is Lifetime Performance Medicine?

Lifetime Performance Medicine is a physician-led longevity clinic at 15965 Los Gatos Blvd in Los Gatos, California, open Monday through Friday, 9 to 5. It is the longevity division of Lifetime Surgical, and it serves Los Gatos, Saratoga, Campbell, San Jose and the wider South Bay. Dr. Richard Nguyen, DO, founded the practice and is listed as a prescriber, along with Morgan Carmean, ARNP. The clinic's main offering is a diagnostics-driven longevity and performance program built around biological age testing, DEXA scans, VO2 max testing and MRI body scans, with hormone replacement therapy and medical weight loss offered within that framework. Weight loss is treated as one service among several rather than the center of the practice. For weight loss specifically, it prescribes semaglutide and tirzepatide, paired with DEXA scans and metabolic and hormonal testing, and it states that medication is available on its own without joining the broader membership.

What does it cost?

Its Foundations membership is listed starting at $5,000 annually, covering five care visits a year (two with Dr. Nguyen), an 80-plus biomarker panel, strength, endurance and calculated VO2 testing, body composition analysis and PhenoAge biological age testing. Its Optimization and Executive tiers are listed as custom pricing rather than fixed dollar amounts. It does not publish a price for medical weight loss or hormone replacement therapy taken on their own, and it does not state whether a monthly or program fee would include the medication itself. It says it is a membership-based program not billed through insurance, though it notes that lab and diagnostic costs may be reimbursable and that HSA or FSA funds can typically be used. Memberships are annual, with the option to pause or cancel by speaking with its team.

In its own words: "Lifetime is a membership-based program and isn't billed through insurance."

What should you ask before you book?

Since both Dr. Nguyen and Morgan Carmean are listed as prescribers, ask directly who would write and manage your prescription if you start the weight loss or hormone program. Ask whether the price you're quoted, whether for Foundations or for weight loss medication alone, includes the cost of semaglutide or tirzepatide, since that is not stated anywhere. Ask whether the medication is brand-name or compounded. Ask what a follow-up visit or repeat labs cost outside the initial membership term, and what the Optimization or Executive tiers actually run in dollars, since those are listed as custom pricing. If you've seen a different membership price mentioned elsewhere, it's worth asking which figure is current.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit for someone who wants weight loss, hormone therapy or longevity planning tied to actual diagnostics like DEXA and biomarker panels rather than a prescription on its own, and who is comfortable paying cash with no insurance billing. It's a less obvious fit for someone who wants a simple monthly price for GLP-1 medication without a membership structure or testing built in.
