Florence Comite's Biography
Florence Comite, MD is a Yale- and National Institutes of Health-trained physician-scientist, a pioneering force in precision medicine, and a world-leading expert in longevity and endocrinology, renowned for her expertise in leveraging proprietary clinical and wearable data collected at her private clinical and virtual practice to detect, predict, and reverse biological aging and disorders of aging, and to optimize healthspan and vitality for life.
Data from her clinical research and decades of clinical practice informed Dr. Comite’s new book, Invincible: Defy Your Genetic Destiny to Live Better, Longer, an instant New York Times Bestselling book.
A graduate of Yale School of Medicine, where she was a faculty member for twenty-five years with a triple appointment in Endocrinology (Internal Medicine and Pediatrics) and Reproductive Endocrinology (Gynecology and Andrology), Dr. Comite trained at the National Institutes of Health and founded Women’s Health at Yale, the nation’s first women-only clinic.
In 2005, Dr. Comite founded the Comite Center for Precision Medicine & Health Longevity in New York City, where she established a clinically proven, academic approach to personalized healthcare structured around the individualized clinical process known as Nof1™, in which each patient is treated as a single-subject clinical trial. Her global clientele spans a broad population, from forward-thinking physicians to industry-disrupting executives and health-enthusiastic entrepreneurs. Each patient benefits from insights and interventions tailored specifically to their physiological make-up. In recent years, the Center has expanded to Palo Alto and Miami Beach.
Dr. Comite has published original research and articles in numerous clinical journals, such as the New England Journal of Medicine, JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, and the Journal of the Endocrine Society. She is known for her seminal research in children, women, and men, grounded in the recognition that our entire biological system is critical to aging and disease. In 2013, she authored the bestselling book Keep It Up: The Power of Precision Medicine to Conquer Low T and Revitalize Your Life, with a primary focus on androgen deficiency and vitality in aging men.

At her private clinics in New York City, Miami, and Silicon Valley, Dr. Comite uses each patient's unique Health Story, biomarkers, and advanced diagnostics to identify chronic disease years before symptoms appear. An endocrinologist, she has never prescribed insulin, instead focusing on personalized interventions that help patients slow, prevent, or even reverse chronic disease.
Based on her New York Times bestselling book, Invincible: Defy Your Genetic Destiny to Live Better, Longer, Dr. Comite explains why longevity isn't about chasing perfection—it's about understanding your unique biology and making smarter decisions that lead to a healthier, more enjoyable life.
