FOUNDER & PRINCIPAL PHYSICIAN

Dr Adam Brown is the founder and principal physician of the Longevity Medicine Institute (LMI) and the co-founder of Dr Adam Brown Skin & Cosmetic Clinic. He has almost 20 years experience in the medical field, having worked as a GP in both London and Sydney. 

Adam has always been passionate about preventative medicine. As a GP, his approach has been to challenge the traditional medical model of treating symptoms and disease, instead focusing on early intervention strategies. It is this outlook that led him to create the LMI, an institute with a focus on proactive measures that help clients live healthier lives. 

It’s a philosophy that Adam lives by. An active swimmer (his highlights include the Bondi to Bronte return ocean swim in 2023), and cyclist (he once cycled 1600 km from Land’s End to John O’Groats in the UK in 9 days), Adam promotes a healthy lifestyle and understands the importance of total wellbeing when it comes to living a longer life. 

Adam’s intention for LMI is that it will become a potent force, due to his use of world-leading strategies, cutting-edge technology, an expert team, and a personal obsession with detail regarding patient data and analytics.
