How to Prepare for a Longevity Consultation

A longevity consultation works best when the physician has an accurate picture of your health from the start. Thirty minutes of preparation beforehand usually produces a far more useful appointment. Here is what to bring and what to raise.

Bring recent laboratory results if available

Recent, reliable results often prevent unnecessary repeat testing and give the physician an immediate baseline. Bring PDFs, printouts or clear photographs, ideally with the dates and the reporting laboratory visible.

If your results are in another language, an English summary of the key values is helpful. If you have nothing recent, that is fine too, and the physician will advise what may be worth checking.

Prepare your medication and supplement list

Write down everything you take regularly or occasionally: prescription medicines, over-the-counter products, vitamins, herbal preparations and injections, with dose and frequency. Photographs of the packaging work well.

Supplements matter as much as prescriptions here, because some affect bleeding, blood pressure or laboratory values.

Share important medical history

Mention diagnosed conditions, past hospital admissions, allergies and reactions, implanted devices, chronic infections and relevant family history. Also say if you are pregnant, breastfeeding or planning pregnancy.

Nothing is too minor to mention if it involved a doctor. Complete information is what allows the physician to assess suitability honestly.

Explain your health and wellness goals

Be specific about what you are hoping for: better energy through a demanding schedule, structured monitoring, support alongside existing care, or simply a clear picture of where you stand. Concrete goals lead to a more focused plan than general wishes do.

Tell the doctor about recent surgery or procedures

Recent operations, dental surgery, biopsies, endoscopy, imaging with contrast, vaccinations or blood donation can all affect timing and suitability. Include anything from the past few months even if it now seems resolved.

Ask about treatment suitability

Ask directly whether a program is appropriate for you, what the alternatives are, what the risks are given your history, and what would make the physician advise against it. A clear no, or a not yet, is a valid and useful answer.

Ask about expected timeline and follow-up

Clarify how much time to allow, whether testing is needed before treatment, when the plan would be reviewed, and how follow-up works after you return home. If you are travelling, ask how many days in Bangkok to plan for.

Individual responses vary and no outcome is guaranteed, so agree in advance how progress will be reviewed rather than assumed.
