My name is Dr. Bob Porzio and I’m a board certified Emergency
Physician. I first became interested in what has been commonly
called Anti-Aging Medicine after practicing in the Emergency
Department for several years. I saw the effects of what I had
always thought of as “typical aging” in many of my patients and
often wondered if there was more to offer these patients, who most
often had chronic illnesses, than what I could through the
Emergency Department. This led me to complete a Fellowship and
become Board Certified in Anti-Aging and Regenerative Medicine.
This aspect of medicine also includes a Functional Medicine
approach that looks to find the cause of disease and attempt to treat
it rather than just prescribing a medication to mask the symptoms.
I am a fully licensed physician in California and Oregon and still
continue to practice full-time in one of the busiest Emergency
Departments and Trauma Centers in Northern California. I have
opened this part-time practice to help as many people as my
schedule allows. I have chosen to do this because I believe in this
approach to medicine and I think it is the direction that primary care
needs to evolve in order to save the United States Health Care
System and is the best way to promote health and wellness in all
people.
I promise:
To listen to and address each individual patient’s needs and
physiology. To treat each person with respect and without
judgment. To be honest and forthcoming with each patient about
lab tests and progress.
