Prefusion FAQ

Testing

Is the DEXA scan painful or invasive?+

Not at all. You lie comfortably on the scanner for about seven minutes. No needles, no discomfort, and no preparation beyond skipping a heavy meal right before.

What is the difference between DEXA, RMR and VO2 max?+

DEXA measures your body composition, RMR measures how your metabolism burns energy, and VO2 max measures your cardiovascular fitness. Together they give a complete physical baseline.

How long does testing take?+

A single DEXA takes about seven minutes. The Optimization Pack, which includes all three tests, takes about 60 to 90 minutes.

The Protocol

What does the Prefusion Protocol include?+

Every core test (DEXA, RMR and VO2 max), a comprehensive bloodwork and lab panel, a full review with your medical and wellness team, and a written, personalized blueprint. One complete visit.

What is included in the bloodwork?+

A comprehensive panel across hormones, thyroid, metabolic markers, inflammation and longevity. It is read alongside your DEXA, RMR and VO2 max, so your team sees the patterns, not just single numbers.

Membership

What do I get with membership?+

Quarterly full retesting, monthly coach check-ins, registered dietitian access, member pricing on therapies, and a plan that updates as your data changes, for $199 a month.

Do I need the Protocol before joining?+

The Protocol is the ideal day one because it gives you a complete baseline, but our team can help you find the right starting point.

Therapies

Is medical therapy right for me?+

Only your data can answer that. We recommend hormone therapy, GLP-1 or peptides only when your labs and goals support it, always physician-managed.

Are therapies the focus of Prefusion?+

No. Our focus is measurement and the human management of your data through the Protocol and membership. Therapies are a supporting benefit when your data calls for them.

Logistics

Can I use my HSA or FSA?+

Yes. Our testing and many services are HSA and FSA eligible, and our team can help with documentation.

Where are you located?+

Manhattan (352 7th Ave), Bellmore (2570 Merrick Rd) and Stony Brook (213 Hallock Rd), New York.

Do I need to be fit already?+

No. Most members start exactly because they want a real picture before they begin. Wherever you are today becomes your baseline.
