Comprehensive Longevity Consultation & Health Assessment

Bliss MD's signature longevity consultation combines an in-depth medical history review with advanced multi-system diagnostic testing to build a personalized health blueprint. Dr. Thakkar evaluates nutrition, movement, sleep, hormones, and metabolic markers to identify root causes before they become chronic conditions — delivering a concierge-level assessment in Chicago's Lincoln Park neighborhood.

Most annual physicals cover the bare minimum — a basic metabolic panel, a blood pressure reading, and a brief conversation. Bliss MD's comprehensive longevity assessment is built on an entirely different premise: that prevention requires deep data, not surface-level screening. The initial assessment begins with an extensive intake covering personal and family medical history, lifestyle factors (nutrition, sleep, movement, stress), and current symptoms or goals. This qualitative foundation is then paired with advanced diagnostic testing selected for your specific risk profile and age — drawing on functional medicine labs including Vibrant Wellness and Mosaic Diagnostics rather than standard hospital panels. Depending on your situation, testing may cover: full hormone panels (thyroid, sex hormones, adrenal function), advanced cardiovascular markers (ApoB, Lp(a), oxidized LDL, homocysteine), gut microbiome health, metabolic function (insulin sensitivity, HbA1c, fasting insulin), micronutrient status, inflammatory biomarkers, and epigenetic biological age via TruDiagnostic. Results are reviewed in a follow-up consultation with Dr. Thakkar, who translates complex data into a clear, prioritized action plan — covering dietary changes, targeted supplementation, hormone optimization if indicated, and lifestyle interventions. Every recommendation is evidence-based and specific to your results, not a generic protocol. Bliss MD operates as a self-pay, concierge-style practice, providing detailed receipts for HSA and FSA reimbursement. The practice serves adults and adolescents, and has been featured on FOX 32 Chicago, ABC Chicago, and CBS News Chicago as a leading voice in functional and preventive medicine in Illinois. For Chicagoans who want a comprehensive starting point for their health optimization journey — or who feel something is off but have not found answers through conventional medicine — this assessment offers clarity and a clear path forward.
