Medical Assistant

Why we started Index Health

Index Health is on a mission to get personalized medicine to 7B people.

Medicine today can be summarized as a 15-minute appointment that inevitably ends

in prescription medication. It’s a reactive, symptom-focused approach to health that

hasn’t changed since the 20th century.

Index Health is modernizing medicine by making treatment personalized,

data-driven, and proactive, to help prevent and treat disease in a much more

effective way. We use advanced lab tests, highly-trained medical staff, and data to

personalize treatments. Personalized treatments include nutrition, lifestyle changes,

and, at times, targeted supplements, and rarely, medication.

With our member base, we've proven to be more effective treatment than modern

medicine, and we believe this is the way the “practice of medicine” should be!

We focus on people who have chronic disease or are focused on prevention and

optimization.
