Longevity is having a loud moment. Podcasts rank supplement stacks, feeds are full of morning routines shot like movie trailers, and everyone with a following has a protocol to sell you, usually without ever having seen a single page of your blood work. Dr. Brad Wasson has been practicing medicine for more than 30 years, and his version of longevity medicine keeps none of that company. We Are Not Influencers. We Are Physicians.
At New Genesis Vitality, longevity medicine is the quiet discipline underneath the buzzword: measure what your body is actually doing, maintain what is working, and address what the numbers show drifting, with a physician accountable for the plan. It is care built around the decades you intend to use.
This page lays out what that means for Texas patients: what longevity medicine is here and what it is not, who leads it, what every part costs, and how the measure-and-maintain cycle actually runs, entirely online.
Start with the honest boundary. You will find no promise on this page about how long you will live. Nobody can sell you that truthfully, so we do not try. What a physician can do is identify the systems your later decades depend on, measure them properly, and keep a plan pointed at maintaining their function: metabolic health, strength and recovery, cognitive sharpness. Not a moonshot. Maintenance, done with medical rigor, year over year.
Longevity medicine in Texas, as New Genesis Vitality practices it, is physician-led telehealth care focused on measuring and maintaining the physiology your later decades depend on: metabolic health, strength and recovery, and cognitive function. It starts with comprehensive lab work ordered during your consultation, builds an individualized plan from those results, and re-measures on a set cadence so the plan follows your actual trend lines instead of a template. Consultations are $199 initially and $149 for follow-ups, lab panels start at $99, and the practice is 100% online; you must be located in Texas for your visits.
Brad Wasson, DO is a board-certified family medicine physician and the practice’s Longevity Specialist. Thirty-plus years into practice, he holds an active Texas license and is based in the DFW metroplex, a fact that stays strictly biographical: the practice runs no physical clinics, so your visits are secure video calls from wherever in Texas you happen to be.
Three decades of practice tend to burn the shortcuts out of a physician. What is left, in Dr. Wasson’s case, is a fixed order of operations: the labs come first, the plan comes from the labs, and nothing gets recommended because it is fashionable. The patient resources for brain fog and mental sharpness and strength and recovery over 50 both carry his medical review, as does the clinic’s lab testing program, and together they trace the same order of operations he applies to aging itself: the numbers on the table first, the recommendations only after.
Everything begins with a baseline you will still be using years from now. Comprehensive panels covering metabolic, thyroid, and related markers start at $99, are ordered during your consultation, and the panel price is your only lab cost: the Quest draw and your provider’s review of the results are both included, with Quest locations available across Texas. If recent blood work already exists somewhere in a portal, bring it to the visit; we build from numbers you already own rather than billing you to produce them twice.
The initial consultation runs about 30 minutes by video, with evening and weekend slots available. It covers your history, what your day-to-day actually demands of your body, and what the baseline shows. Two things make this different from the annual once-over you may be used to. First, the conversation is built around function you want to keep, not just disease you want to rule out. Second, “maintain, and re-measure later” is treated as a legitimate medical answer here. If your numbers are where they should be, you will be told exactly that.
A single lab report is a photograph; longevity medicine is the film. Follow-up visits at $149 usually run about 15 minutes and exist to compare: the newest panel against your baseline, the plan against your lived experience, and the trend line against where you want it to hold. Your provider sets the re-testing cadence from your results, and the plan gets adjusted whenever the data says it should.
What longevity care costs in Texas. Consultations bill at the Cognitive & Neuro-Optimization and Cellular Longevity rate: $199 initial, $149 follow-up. Lab panels start at $99, and if you bring recent blood work we can use, you skip that cost entirely. Where treatment becomes part of your plan, prescriptions are filled only through 503A and 503B regulated US pharmacies, billed separately at pass-through pharmacy pricing, and quoted to you before anything is prescribed. Refills between scheduled appointments carry a $10 prescription charge. The practice is cash-pay with HSA/FSA superbills available, and the complete fee list is on our pricing page.
At a glance, for Texas patients:
Longevity care here is not a single product. It is a lens over three care areas the practice already runs, and your plan pulls from whichever ones your labs point to:
That structure is deliberate. A plan assembled from measured need is the opposite of a protocol sold to everyone the same way.
New Genesis Vitality is a physician-led telehealth practice staffed by US Board-Certified Physicians and Practitioners with over 80 years of combined experience. Every plan starts with labs, every case gets a licensed provider’s review, and the wider picture of how the practice serves Texas patients is on our telehealth in Texas page.
The decades you are planning for will be built on the physiology you are maintaining now, and the only way to maintain something well is to measure it.
