Diagnostic Testing & Blood Panels
The foundation of every treatment we prescribe is data. Comprehensive blood panels, multi-cancer early detection, and epigenetic age testing — because you can't optimize what you don't measure.
Why We Test Before We Treat
At Rewind Anti-Aging, we don't prescribe based on symptoms alone. Symptoms can overlap across conditions — fatigue can be caused by low testosterone, hypothyroidism, vitamin D deficiency, insulin resistance, or cortisol dysfunction. Without comprehensive bloodwork, treatment is guesswork.
Our diagnostic approach gives us a complete metabolic and hormonal picture — including key markers like SHBG — so every treatment decision is informed by data, not assumptions.

Comprehensive Hormone & Metabolic Blood Panel
Our standard panel goes far beyond what you'd get at a typical doctor's visit. We test the full spectrum of hormones, metabolic markers, and health indicators.
Hormone Panel
- Total and Free Testosterone — The most critical marker for men; also important for women's energy, libido, and body composition
- Estradiol (E2) — Primary estrogen; essential for women's health and must be monitored in men on testosterone therapy (can convert via aromatization)
- Progesterone — Sleep, anxiety, endometrial protection in women
- DHEA-S — Adrenal precursor hormone; reflects adrenal function and stress response
- SHBG (Sex Hormone Binding Globulin) — Determines how much of your total testosterone is actually available for use (free vs. bound)
- Cortisol — Stress hormone; chronically elevated cortisol suppresses testosterone, thyroid, and immune function
Thyroid Panel
- TSH — Pituitary signal to the thyroid; often the only thyroid test run by other providers, but insufficient alone
- Free T3 — The active thyroid hormone your cells actually use for metabolism
- Free T4 — The storage form of thyroid hormone that converts to T3
Many patients with "normal" TSH have suboptimal free T3 levels, leading to symptoms of hypothyroidism (fatigue, weight gain, brain fog, cold intolerance) that go undiagnosed. We test the full thyroid panel to catch what others miss.
Metabolic & General Health
- CBC (Complete Blood Count) — Red and white blood cells, hemoglobin, hematocrit (important for monitoring testosterone therapy safety)
- CMP (Comprehensive Metabolic Panel) — Liver function, kidney function, electrolytes, glucose
- Lipid Panel — Total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, triglycerides
- Hemoglobin A1c — 3-month average blood sugar; screens for insulin resistance and diabetes
- Fasting Insulin — Early indicator of metabolic dysfunction, often elevated years before blood sugar rises
- Vitamin D (25-OH) — Chronically low in most adults; impacts immune function, mood, bone health, and testosterone production
- PSA (men) — Prostate-specific antigen; baseline and monitoring marker for prostate health
Multi-Cancer Early Detection
The Galleri test represents a paradigm shift in cancer screening. Developed by GRAIL, this blood test detects a shared cancer signal across more than 50 types of cancer — including many that have no standard screening test today.
50+ Cancer Types
Detects a shared cancer signal across more than 50 cancer types with a single blood draw.
No Standard Screening
Many detected cancers have no other recommended screening (pancreatic, liver, ovarian).
<1% False Positive Rate
A positive result is highly likely to be real, minimizing unnecessary anxiety and follow-up.
Ages 50+ Recommended
Recommended for adults 50 and older or those with elevated risk factors like family history.
Complements Screenings
Designed to complement — not replace — standard screenings like mammography and colonoscopy.
Early Detection Saves Lives
Cancers caught at stage I/II have dramatically better survival rates than stage III/IV.
How the Galleri Test Works
Cancer cells shed fragments of their DNA into the bloodstream (cell-free DNA, or cfDNA). The Galleri test analyzes methylation patterns on this cfDNA — specific chemical modifications that differ between cancer and non-cancer cells. When a cancer signal is detected, the test also predicts where in the body the cancer originated, helping direct follow-up diagnostic workup.
TrueAge: How Old Are Your Cells?
Your chronological age is how many birthdays you've had. Your biological age is how old your cells actually are — and they're often different. TrueAge measures your biological age through epigenetic analysis, giving you a precise picture of how your body is aging at the molecular level.
TrueAge analyzes DNA methylation patterns — chemical markers on your DNA that change over time in response to aging, lifestyle, diet, exercise, stress, and environmental factors. These patterns have been validated as the most accurate biomarker of biological aging available today.
Know your true biological age before starting any anti-aging program.
Repeat testing after 6-12 months of treatment to objectively measure whether your interventions (HRT, lifestyle changes, peptides) are actually reversing biological aging.
Seeing your biological age decrease is a powerful motivator to maintain healthy habits.
A biological age significantly higher than chronological age may indicate accelerated aging that warrants more aggressive intervention.
Boston Heart Advanced Testing
Standard lipid panels tell you your cholesterol numbers, but they don't tell the full story. Boston Heart advanced cardiovascular testing goes deeper to assess your true cardiovascular risk.
- LDL particle number and size — small dense LDL is more dangerous than large buoyant LDL
- Lipoprotein(a) — a genetic cardiovascular risk factor that standard panels miss
- Inflammation markers — hs-CRP, Lp-PLA2
- Metabolic markers — affecting cardiovascular risk
This testing is particularly valuable for patients with a family history of heart disease, borderline cholesterol levels, or those wanting the most complete cardiovascular risk assessment available.
Our 5-Step Diagnostic Process
From consultation to treatment plan — every step is designed to give you a complete picture of your health.
Consultation
Discuss your symptoms, health history, and goals to determine which tests are appropriate.
Blood Draw
Performed in our Wynwood clinic by trained phlebotomists. Most panels require a morning fasting draw.
Lab Processing
Results typically available within 5-10 business days (Galleri and TrueAge may take 2-3 weeks).
Results Review
We sit down with you to review every result in detail, explain what each marker means, and discuss what's optimal vs. just "normal."
Treatment Plan
Based on your complete diagnostic picture, we design a personalized protocol addressing every identified issue.

Frequently Asked Questions About Diagnostic Testing
What blood tests do you run?
Our comprehensive panel includes: total and free testosterone, estradiol, progesterone, DHEA-S, SHBG, TSH, free T3, free T4, cortisol, CBC, CMP, lipid panel, PSA (men), insulin, hemoglobin A1c, vitamin D, liver enzymes, and kidney function markers. Additional tests are ordered based on your specific symptoms and health history.
How is the Galleri test different from other cancer screenings?
Traditional cancer screenings (mammograms, colonoscopies, PSA tests) look for one cancer type at a time. The Galleri test detects a shared cancer signal — methylation patterns in cell-free DNA — across more than 50 cancer types with a single blood draw, including many cancers that have no standard screening today.
Who should get the Galleri multi-cancer test?
Galleri is recommended for adults aged 50 and older, or those with elevated cancer risk factors (family history, prior cancer, environmental exposures). It is designed to complement — not replace — standard cancer screenings like mammograms and colonoscopies.
What is biological age vs. chronological age?
Your chronological age is how many years you've been alive. Your biological age measures how old your cells actually are based on epigenetic markers — DNA methylation patterns that change with aging, lifestyle, stress, and disease. Someone who is chronologically 50 could have a biological age of 42 (healthier than average) or 58 (aging faster than average).
How often should I get blood work done?
For patients on hormone therapy or weight loss programs: at baseline, 6-8 weeks after starting treatment, then every 3-6 months. For general wellness monitoring: annually is a good baseline, or more frequently if you have specific health concerns or are tracking treatment progress.
Do you accept insurance for lab work?
Some lab tests may be covered by insurance depending on your plan and the medical indication. We can discuss which tests may be eligible during your consultation. The Galleri and TrueAge tests are typically not covered by insurance.
