Health, to us, is capacity. The energy, mental clarity, and physical resilience to do what matters to you, and to keep doing it as the years add up. Longevity follows from that. We're not chasing delusions of immortality, or biohacking our way to 120 years old. Our goal is to extend your prime: the years you spend strong, sharp, still fully yourself. We care more about healthspan than lifespan. That's why our work is proactive. We look for risks years before they become problems, build the plan around your specific biology, and bet on small advantages compounding over decades. Health and longevity are the doors to opportunity. What excites us most is what our members do with it.

Congratulations to three of our Velocity physicians, Dan Fosselman DO, Ashley Chambers MD, and Dr. Deep @DrDeepMD on being named in Offcall’s Most Trusted Physicians! In a time when trust in mainstream medicine is at a low, it’s more important than ever to find clinicians and physicians you can trust. This award is a testament to not just who we are, but the change we are bringing to medicine and to our members lives.

Women have been neglected by the current healthcare system. Stop us if this story sounds familiar: As the years have come and gone, the symptoms feel like they have started rolling in on waves: -Thinning hair -Weight gain -Muscle pain -Low libido -Bouts of unexplained anxiety or irritability -Trouble falling asleep or staying awake -Memory lapses -Feeling flushed or hot throughout the day Some days it’s "none or maybe one", other days you're checking off all on the list... and some days you can't quite put your finger on it, but you just know something doesn't feel right. So you decide to go to the doctor. You list out your symptoms as best you can and try to do so with a smile on your face, only to be told: "It's just aging" and given generic health advice you've heard (and tried) a million times before. Not satisfied with this, you go to another doctor, and they prescribe something for the sleep issues. Still plagued with the other issues, you seek out yet another doctor who prescribes something for the anxiety. Next thing you know, you're on too many supplements and prescriptions to count, and you still don't feel any better. All of this, because "it's just aging" Women deserve better. They deserve to be heard. They deserve to be understood. And they deserve to be in the driver's seat of their own health journey, with a clear map to where they are going. That's why Velocity is proud to offer a dedicated space for women's health. Lead by women's health expert @brittanybussemd, our female members are seen as the unique women they are. The very first thing that happens is that you are heard. Not just in one ear and out the other, but truly understood. Then, the conversation begins. What has felt like a chaotic uprising of symptoms is explained at the depth you've been looking for. Once we understand what you're going through, and you understand how you got here, we work together to carve out a path forwards. You belong in the driver's seat of your health journey. Velocity is just here to help you get there.

Healthcare isn’t just medicine when you’re sick, big university hospitals, and insurance claims. It’s the full breadth of your well-being. How are you physically? How are you mentally? How are you emotionally? How are you spiritually? Is your life rewarding? Do you have purpose? Are you surrounded by enriching relationships? At Velocity, you’re more than numbers on a lab sheet or test results. You’re a human. And while your health is our specialty, Your life is our priority.

The comments & reactions to this post are essentially a microcosm of the current state of women’s health 40-something woman starts feeling a number of symptoms that feel unexplainable, doc gives her the generic hormonal treatments, and she feels even worse Then we go to the crowd, where some people report success, others report similar problems, and at least a few give advice that will indefinitely make things worse. Perimenopause is not one-size-fits-all, and while some may get lucky with guessing on exogenous progesterone or estrogen, you also run the risk of making things worse. Perimenopause can feel chaotic, but with the right guidance, there is a way to transition gracefully. Our Head of Women’s Health @brittanybussemd wrote a free 10-page guide on what perimenopause is, why it happens, and steps you can take to begin building a protocol around your life.
