About
Dr. Live Long is a longevity and health-optimization practice founded by Dr. Sarah Long — currently operating within medAge in Biltmore Park, Asheville. This is who we are and how we think about your health.
Where most care waits for something to break, or treats one symptom at a time, Dr. Live Long starts with a comprehensive picture of how your body actually functions — labs, hormones, metabolic markers, lifestyle — and builds a plan around root causes, your data, and your goals.
Foundation is the membership expression of that philosophy: ongoing, physician-led care across four paths — Performance, Metabolic, Aesthetics, and Longevity. Whether you come in for a single service or join a Foundation path, the standard of care is the same.

Founder, Dr. Live Long · Clinical Lead, medAge
Dr. Sarah Long is the founding mind behind Dr. Live Long — a longevity and health-optimization practice built on the belief that aging is something we can actively influence, not just manage. As a Doctor of Nursing Practice and board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner, she brings a rare combination of primary-care depth and longevity-medicine expertise to every patient.
Her work spans hormone optimization, medical weight loss, peptide therapy, and preventive longevity medicine. Where most practices focus only on how you look, Dr. Long is equally focused on how your body functions. She is the architect of Foundation — Dr. Live Long’s membership-based longevity and performance program. Dr. Long lives in Asheville with her partner, Eric.

Physical Performance Lead, Foundation · Founder, Resurgence Rehab & Performance
Dr. Jonathan Frakes is a Doctor of Physical Therapy and Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist, and the founder of Resurgence Rehab & Performance. He leads the physical-performance side of Foundation — movement assessment, strength programming, and performance benchmarking — built on the conviction that the line between rehabilitation and performance is artificial.
He joined Foundation as Dr. Long’s performance partner because the program’s philosophy matched his own: the best outcomes come from integrating the medical and the physical, not treating them in isolation. His approach is evidence-based and built around function that compounds over decades, not short-term gains.
Practice Administrator
Eric joined the practice in late 2024, bringing over 13 years of executive leadership experience — most recently in franchise development for Lotus Cars USA. He oversees operations, marketing, and the systems that keep Dr. Live Long and medAge running smoothly behind the scenes. A native Texan now rooted in Asheville, Eric made the move with his partner, Dr. Sarah Long, with a clear goal: build something meaningful for this community.
He’s also a genuine believer in what the practice offers — peptide therapies helped him with energy and sleep, and medical-grade skincare finally cleared acne he’d battled for over 20 years. Off the clock: Longhorn football, live music at The Orange Peel, tapas at Curate, guitars, and cold beers.
Dr. Live Long and Foundation currently operate within medAge Customized Medicine & Aesthetics, at 30 Town Square Blvd, Suite 218, in Biltmore Park, Asheville. All consultations and appointments are scheduled and held at medAge.
As the practice grows, Dr. Live Long will establish its own dedicated home — but today, this is where you’ll find us.
