About Dr. Natasha Iyer

In addition to her practice of Longevity and Precision medicine (with a focus on bio-identical hormone therapy), Dr. Iyer has spent almost 20 years helping patients look younger with her specialized cosmetic medicine techniques. Advances in Precision medicine have given Dr. Iyer access to analyzing the factors that accelerate your cellular aging. Once your DNA and certain other biomarkers are measured, you can slow down and reverse aging without the need for intensive treatments.

You can simply stop aging.

Dr. Iyer has always had a keen interest in preventative medicine, anti-aging medicine, hormonal health, holistic alternatives, stress management, and medical aesthetics. When combined, these fields help you feel and look younger.

She looks at finding the root cause of your issues rather than offering band-aid solutions. Whether it is aging and feeling older; or sagging skin: she believes that finding out ‘what is causing this’ and restoring the process is what will give you lasting solutions. This approach is evident in her own life, functioning, and appearance.

Dr. Iyer and her team of colleagues believe the most comprehensive health solutions utilize both the best holistic medical treatments and the best conventional medical options. All are based on science and technology. She believes you should attend to all aspects of your health that enable you to live your best life, and maintains that every aspect of your health should be handled by an individual who is a trained expert in the field.

Dr. Iyer is therefore delighted to work with a team of experts dedicated to helping you explore the rewards of life when you feel better and look better. As a doctor, she has always been far more interested in treating every patient as a truly unique individual, rather than just another patient whose symptoms put them into a particular but not very personalized profile.

Dr. Iyer is pleased to be a member of the medical team at Live Younger. She feels your ability to enjoy good health and the opportunity to live with more confidence and vitality, is greatly enhanced by access to this clinic’s diverse services. The services offered include acupuncture, functional nutrition, mindset and life coaching, stress management, osteopathic medicine, massage therapy, and more. Each professional is highly skilled in their specific area.

Once you feel younger, you will want to look younger too, hence the full range of cosmetic medicine treatments is all geared towards keeping you looking natural.

Dr. Iyer currently devotes many hours a month to keeping abreast of the latest science and research relevant to her current areas of practice. She attends scientific meetings and workshops with leaders in the field regularly.

She has a Fellowship in Functional and Regenerative Medicine since 2013. Whilst her designation is Fellow of the American Academy of Metabolic and Functional Medicine (FAAMFM), the certification is more aptly named Advanced Longevity and Health Optimization in 2024.

Between her busy schedule at the clinic and her family, she finds time to read journals in Dermatology and Cosmetic Medicine to remain cutting-edge in helping your skin look fresh and young.

Dr. Iyer is also a noted speaker and trainer on wellness, hormones, weight management, and anti-aging. She has presented at an International conference in Women’s Health attended by physicians from across the globe, and multiple conferences for organisations like Tiger 21, CAIS, CXLT of Alberta, McKay group, RBC, NBC, and more.

” Health is a journey: small lasting steps lead to GREAT results.”

You Deserve A Better Quality of Life

All those years of writing prescriptions, I realized my patients weren’t really getting BETTER. A drug for this and a drug for that…the same dose for everyone, even though every person is a unique individual. Then I discovered a Better way!

My own health suffered. I was prescribed anti-depressants for my many symptoms because all my tests were normal. I had pain. Every day, from my hair to my feet. 17+ migraines a month, and chronic muscle and body pain which screamed of fibromyalgia. I knew there was something else wrong. My sleep was not refreshing. My fatigue was overwhelming. I struggled to participate in my home life, with everything spent during the work day. My brain was foggy, I struggled to get rid of the ever-growing belly fat. I felt frazzled. I couldn’t imagine turning 40 if my early 30’s felt like this.

Today, I am in my 50’s and I can do more than I did in my 30’s.

I enjoy the outdoors. I cherish the time with my children, and love being able to participate fully in their lives.

This is what Functional Medicine, and Precision Medicine, have allowed me to achieve in my own personal health. I’m excited to help you access your best health, and live powerfully doing whatever it is you choose. Not what you are forced to do because you struggle with various symptoms, and are told ‘you’re just getting older’, or ‘it’s all in your head’.
