Timothy Soncrant, M.D., is the Founder and Chief Scientist of David Drew Longevity. An engineer, Internal Medicine specialist and Gerontologist, he was educated at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and at the Universities of Vermont and Michigan before beginning a research career at the National Institutes of Health, where he founded the National Institute on Aging’s clinical treatment program.
In 1996, Dr. Soncrant stepped away from his NIH laboratory to conduct a grand, real-world experiment – to find out whether health surveillance of apparently healthy individuals with modern technology improves longevity. His new laboratory, The David Drew Clinic, was named after his sons and became the development site for the LOOKtoLIVE program offered today. During those intervening many years of program design and improvement, David Drew’s LOOKtoLIVE turned out to be much more effective that originally anticipated, adding 6 or more prime years to our patients’ lives.
Now, Dr. Soncrant is intimately involved in measuring and improving the performance of David Drew Longevity programs and in evaluating and implementing new medical tests and procedures as they become useful for keeping our participants healthy.
