Dr. Victor Kopyev - Internal Medicine and Anti-Aging Specialist

In 2009, Dr. Victor Kopyevwas a successful internist working long hours & living a healthy lifestyle by remaining active, working out & eating right. Dr. Kopyev was treating patients for various diseases & concerns & becoming frustrated that many of the issues that his patients were suffering with were all preventable. Dr. Kopyev had only wished that he could have met these patients just one year before he met them, but he also knew that most go to the doctors when they are sick, and did not visit a doctor if they were healthy. This was one of the many reasons that he remained active & adopted a lifestyle in order to prevent disease & many of the conditions for which he was treating his patients for. As frustrating as this was, Dr. Kopyev's field of medicine was designed to treat disease and/or stop it from progressing & people just do not come to an internist to prevent potential disease. He really wanted to change that mentality as a physician & help patients manage aging and prevent health conditions.

Around this time, Dr. Kopyev began noticing that he himself, was feeling less and less productive at the end of his long work days, recovering more slowly after exercise and was not noticing any progress with his exercise programs that he was committed to. He was becoming less capable of keeping up with his daughter and her friends and was experiencing the same symptoms of aging as his patients. This was somewhat dissappointing to Dr. Kopyev because he had worked so hard his whole life to prevent this from happening and began to question where he went wrong.

Dr. Kopyev began a quest for better patient care & longed to learn how a healthy lifestyle was not enough to prevent such things from occuring. Along Dr. Kopyev's journey, he found himself at a medical conference that ended up being the turning point for him--a very bright light at the end of a dark tunnel! This concept was at first difficult to accept... it was simply too good to be true. He never learned about this in medical school from any of his professors. The conference was the Art of Medicine where the topic was the idea of Age Management Medicine and Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy and this was of course where he met Dr. Jeffry Life and heard about his story.

Dr. Kopyev just simply could not believe that this was an effective strategy for treatment so he devoted the next three years of his life to intense education and research to confirm this concept and to also gain hands-on experience. Dr. Kopyev enrolled in an intensive training program through Age Management Medicine Group, Cenegenics Education and Research Foundation and Worldlink Medical, completing certification in Age Management Medicine.

Upon completion of the program, Dr. Kopyev pursued further comprehensive studies about Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) and age management medicine under nationally recognized leaders such as Dr. Neal Rouzier, Dr. Jeffry Life , Dr. William Andrews, Dr. Robert Willix, Dr. Joseph Raffaele, and Dr. Louis Cady. Dr. Kopyev attended multiple Age Management Medicine Group conferences, webinars, monthly grand-rounds and journal clubs at Cenegenics Medical Institute. Once he confirmed that age management medicine was real & that there was evidence of significant improvements under use of bioidentical hormones combined with exercise & nutrition, he decided that it was time to put it to the test.

Since beginning Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy on his patients, he has witnessed a complete turnaround in their lives. Dr. Kopyev & the thousands of others who have gone through bioidentical hormone replacement therapy prove that there is no longer any reason give up when you turn 60, 70, 80, 90… Recent advancements in Age Management Medicine are making the future even brighter and the opportunities for anti-aging seem optimistic and unlimited.

Now on a daily basis, Dr. Kopyev sees patients who feel a lack of strength, energy, endurance and inability to perform as they once did. Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy turns them around. The patients who once suffered from these very same symptoms now see that those symptoms have been properly treated. Dr. Kopyev has become extremely passionate about BHRT.

Hormone replacement therapy is an important component in increasing quality of life and fighting against aging processes. Current research reveals that hormone replacement can slow this deterioration and a majority of symptoms of aging. This gives us great hope for not only a long life, but also a healthy, active life, with an emphasis on quality.
