Kunj G. Patel, MD, MSc
Director of Regenerative Medicine & Longevity
For more than 28 years, Epi Center MedSpa has been at the forefront of medical aesthetics. Today, we are entering an exciting new chapter—expanding beyond traditional aesthetics to bring together Regenerative Aesthetics, Regenerative Medicine & Longevity under one roof.
Leading this evolution is Kunj G. Patel, MD, MSc, Epi Center’s Director of Regenerative Medicine & Longevity.
Education & Advanced Medical Training
Dr. Patel earned his medical degree from West Virginia University School of Medicine before completing his internship at the University of Maryland. He went on to complete his residency in Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation at Emory University School of Medicine, followed by advanced fellowship training in Pain Medicine at Harvard-affiliated Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston.
Board-certified in Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation and Pain Medicine, Dr. Patel’s training bridges rehabilitation, interventional medicine, regenerative medicine and the science of improving function and quality of life.
His background also includes clinical research and published scientific work spanning regenerative and musculoskeletal medicine, rehabilitation and interventional pain management. He has contributed to peer-reviewed research and national clinical guidelines and has held leadership roles within the American Society of Interventional Pain Physicians.
A Personal Path to Longevity Medicine
Dr. Patel’s interest in longevity became deeply personal when he faced a significant health concern of his own. While conventional medicine offered medication as part of the solution, the experience prompted him to look more closely at what else he could do to influence his long-term health.
He began exploring the important role that nutrition, exercise, sleep, stress, metabolic health and greater awareness of individual risk factors can play alongside traditional medical care. That experience helped shape the philosophy he brings to patients today: don’t simply wait for disease to appear—understand your body, identify risks earlier and take an active role in protecting your health for the years ahead.
Today, Dr. Patel combines conventional medicine with advanced diagnostics and a highly personalized approach to understanding the factors that influence how we age, perform and feel. His evaluations may incorporate cardiopulmonary fitness testing, advanced blood biomarkers, genomics and epigenetics, sleep analysis and advanced imaging.
Dr. Patel has also cared for professional athletes and performers, giving him a unique perspective on optimizing strength, performance, recovery and long-term health.
At Epi Center, Dr. Patel is helping us build the next generation of our practice—expanding our expertise beyond traditional aesthetics into Regenerative Aesthetics, Regenerative Medicine & Longevity. From treatments designed to stimulate the body’s own regenerative processes to advanced diagnostics, prevention and personalized longevity strategies, our goal is to help patients not only look their best, but function, feel and age their best.
It is the natural evolution of the work Epi Center began in 1998—and the next chapter in our mission to help our patients look good, feel good and live well.
