Longevity Medicine in Maui
At Makena Health, longevity medicine starts with a simple question: how is your body actually functioning right now, and where is it heading. We build the answer from real data, then design a plan around it, physician-led from the first visit through every therapy that follows.
Start With Data: Comprehensive Longevity Diagnostics
Your plan begins with a full picture of where you stand today. We use multi-omic biomarker analysis and genomic profiling, total body MRI imaging, detailed body composition testing, metabolic analysis, and VO₂ max testing to build a baseline most annual physicals never capture. Dr. Starbuck reviews every result with you in person, and your roadmap is built around what your data actually shows, not a standard template applied to everyone.
The Foundation: Lifestyle Optimization
Every longevity plan starts with the fundamentals: nutrition, movement, sleep, stress regulation, and recovery. These are the habits that make every therapy layered on top of them more effective, and for most patients, they're also where the most durable change happens over time.
Advanced, Physician-Directed Therapies
From there, your plan may incorporate additional therapies based on your diagnostics, your goals, and Dr. Starbuck's individual assessment, including hormone and peptide therapy, hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT), red light and photobiomodulation therapy, precision IV nutrient therapy, and EBOO therapy. Not every therapy is right for every patient. Dr. Starbuck selects each one individually and will walk you through the rationale and the current evidence before you begin.
Why Maui
Makena Health is based in Wailea, on Maui, where the pace supports the kind of sustained attention longevity care actually requires. Care here is private, unhurried, and physician-led, from your first diagnostic visit onward.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is longevity medicine? Longevity medicine is a proactive, diagnostics-driven approach to health that focuses on function, resilience, and quality of life across the years ahead, rather than treating illness only after it appears. At Makena Health, this means combining advanced testing with an individualized plan built around your specific biology and goals.
How is longevity medicine different from a regular physical? A standard annual physical is built to catch existing problems. Longevity medicine at Makena Health starts further upstream, using detailed diagnostics like multi-omic biomarker panels, total body MRI, and VO2 max testing to build a fuller picture of how your body is functioning now, then uses that picture to guide a personalized plan.
What therapies are included in a longevity program at Makena Health? Depending on your diagnostics and goals, your plan may include lifestyle optimization, hormone and peptide therapy, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, red light therapy, IV nutrient therapy, or EBOO therapy. Not every therapy is right for every patient, and Dr. Starbuck determines what's appropriate for you individually.
Is longevity medicine backed by evidence? Evidence quality varies by therapy. Diagnostics like VO2 max testing, body composition analysis, and standard biomarker panels are well established. Some of the advanced therapies we offer, including certain applications of HBOT and peptide therapy, are considered off-label or investigational for the goals discussed in consultation. Dr. Starbuck will walk you through what the current evidence does and doesn't show for any therapy you're considering.
Do you accept insurance? No. Makena Health operates on a concierge, cash-pay model, which allows for more time with your physician and a fully individualized plan. Contact us for current program pricing.
