General Information
Our society has come to accept that:
|
Modern medicine and our health care system are able to prolong human life more than ever before. However, long life does not necessarily mean quality life. Do we not want more out of life than to reach old age accompanied by frequent visits to the emergency department, weakness, joint pain, heart attacks, memory loss, incontinence, sexual dysfunction, recurrent falls and poor vision or hearing?
Our acceptance of limits to our lives is rooted deep inside of us. And so it would have remained if not for the few of us who have questioned the above “facts” and tried to change them.
Staff and Management
Our team includes various health care providers such as a physician, nurses, massage therapist, nutritionist and homeopath.
Our medical director is Dr. S. Bergman. He speaks five languages and his training includes a residency in Internal Medicine and a fellowship in Geriatrics. Dr. Bergman is a specialist in Healthy-Aging Medicine. He is Board Certified by the American Academy of Healthy-Aging Medicine and serves as head examiner for the American Academy of Healthy-Aging Medicine. He is a Fellow of the American Academy of Disability Evaluating Physicians, Fellow of the Acupuncture Foundation of Canada Institute, Diplomat of the American College of Advancement of Medicine (ACAM), and is a diplomat in Chelation Therapy from ACAM, after successfully completing the oral and written exams in chelation.
Dr. Bergman has developed a new theory of aging called the Cell First® Theory of Aging based on Cell Damage, Balance and Transportation. He has also developed the Healthy Aging program offered by Longevity Healthy Aging™ in addition to the Advanced Chelation and Food For Heart™ programs.
