Brain & cognition in San Francisco Bay Area

Set a baseline now so change is detectable later.

Usually cognitive baseline testing and brain MRI, so a change years from now has something to be compared against.

4 of the 9 clinics in our San Francisco Bay Area guide, each with the published services behind the claim.

Dr. Gilberto Hernandez, MD, PhD, Biograph, San Francisco Bay Area
Preventive diagnostics clinic

Biograph, San Francisco Bay Area

San Mateo, on the San Francisco Peninsula
One six-hour day of imaging and testing in San Mateo, then a physician who reads the whole picture back to you.

Biograph's founding clinic sits in San Mateo, not in San Francisco, about fifteen minutes from SFO. You buy a year, not a visit: one six-hour day in a private suite running twenty or more assessments, then a report and a one-to-one review with a Biograph physician about three weeks later, then calls with a dietitian and an exercise physiologist. Core covers whole-body MRI, a comprehensive blood panel, DEXA and VO2 max. Black roughly doubles the price and adds coronary CT angiography, a low-dose lung CT, a multi-cancer blood test, brain health assessment, mid-year labs and a glucose monitor. Two physicians are named for this clinic, which is more than most operators of this size publish. What you will not find anywhere we read is a phone number, opening hours, or what year two costs.

Diagnostics include: Genetic & genomic testing · Neurocognitive testing · Continuous glucose monitoring

Paul H. Kim, MD, Medical Institute of Healthy Aging, Walnut Creek
Longevity and regenerative medicine practice

Medical Institute of Healthy Aging, Walnut Creek

Ygnacio Valley Road, Walnut Creek
A Walnut Creek longevity practice that starts by measuring how fast you are aging, with three named tests rather than one vague panel.

A longevity practice on Ygnacio Valley Road in Walnut Creek, founded and led by Dr. Paul H. Kim, who publishes board certifications in Family Medicine, Anti-Aging Medicine, Obesity Medicine and Regenerative Medicine. The front door is measurement: the clinic names three specific biological-age tests it offers, TrueAge by TruDiagnostic, GlycanAge and iollo, alongside brain age, artery age, lung age, body composition and biochemical panels. What follows the measurement is a wide interventional menu, including NAD+ and other infusions, seven named peptides, mesenchymal and induced pluripotent stem cell work, PRP and three BTL devices. Two things to know going in. No price appears on any page we read and the Payment Plans page has no content on it. And the site's own pages disagree about where the third clinic is: the address blocks say San Francisco, while the page titles and Dr. Kim's own bio say Atherton.

Prenuvo, Redwood City clinic
Whole-body MRI screening

Prenuvo, Redwood City

Redwood City, on El Camino Real
Whole-body MRI on El Camino Real, open seven days, with no named clinician for this clinic.

This is Prenuvo's Bay Area clinic, and it is on El Camino Real in Redwood City rather than in San Francisco. It is one of only two Prenuvo sites that publish seven-day hours on the locations index. You can buy a single scan, at $2,499 for the Whole Body and $1,199 for the Focused. Everything else is sold as a year: three membership tiers, each bundling one MRI, one or two blood panels and one or two reviews with a Prenuvo provider. You book online, pay up front, lie in the scanner for roughly 45 to 75 minutes depending on the tier, then get a radiology report and a call. What the clinic will not do is act on what it finds. It states plainly that it does not order follow-up labs, provide referrals or consultations, or treat, so anything the scan turns up goes back to your own doctor. Nobody is named for this clinic, or for the United States.

Executive health assessment and longevity membership

Human Longevity, South San Francisco

South San Francisco, Gateway Boulevard biotech corridor
One private day of MRI, genome sequencing and bloodwork minutes from SFO in South San Francisco, then a clinician walks you through all of it.

One private day in a clinic on Gateway Boulevard, a few minutes from SFO, where you go through a whole-body MRI, a brain MRI, cardiac imaging, a DEXA scan, bloodwork and whole genome sequencing back to back, then sit down with a longevity clinician who walks you through all of it and hands you a plan. That day is $8,000 a year. Two tiers above it add continuous monitoring, more screening and, at the top, a concierge physician. Two things are worth knowing before you book. Human Longevity names ten clinicians and its leadership for the company, but names nobody at this address, and it says its Medical Director role is a San Diego one. And its own pages describe the blood panel two different ways, so we show no marker count.
