Cenegenics - Beverly Hills

Cenegenics Beverly Hills is a membership-based preventative-medicine centre at 433 N Camden Drive, Suite 560. Its own site says it covers Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Santa Monica and Brentwood.

The entry point is the Performance Health Assessment, which the clinic describes as extensive biomarker testing: blood work measuring markers such as hormones, blood sugar and cholesterol, reviewed with a physician before a programme begins.

On top of the diagnostics run at every Cenegenics centre, the Beverly Hills site lists tests of its own:

• VO2 max, a hard exercise test of the most oxygen your body can use while working at its limit
• DEXA body composition, a low-dose X-ray that measures bone and tissue
• CIMT, an ultrasound of the neck artery walls used to gauge vascular risk
• advanced CCTA, a CT scan of the heart's arteries read by software called Cleerly
• brain EEG (WAVi), which records electrical activity in the brain
• genetic, nutrigenomic and micronutrient testing

Hormone replacement therapy, bioidentical hormone therapy, shockwave therapy and therapeutic plasma exchange are also on the menu. The centre physician is Taylor Martin, MD, board-certified in preventive medicine, listed alongside four performance health coaches and a member experience coordinator.

Membership is required and the listing carries our top price band, so the offer seems aimed at people who want a monitored programme rather than a single screening. The centre is about 11 miles from Los Angeles International Airport, with validated parking in its underground garage.
