Dr. Vassily Eliopoulos (Dr. Vass) is the Co-Founder and Chief Medical Officer of Longevity Health.

He originally graduated from Trinity College where he earned a bachelors with honors in Neuroscience. He then became a Peace Corps volunteer in the Solomon Islands where he taught secondary school and worked with the World Health Organization on their malaria and filariasis control projects. After the Peace Corps he attended Cornell University Medical College in New York City, and then completed his postgraduate medical training at the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center and Denver Health Medical Center in General Surgery and Emergency Medicine. Vass is Board Certified in Emergency Medicine and is a member of the American Society of Interventional Pain Physicians.

After spending over a decade in the traditional healthcare system, Dr. Vass realized the legacy healthcare system focused on “sick care” and there was a better way to improve people’s health by working with them proactively to live a healthy life. He decided to work with people to optimize their health, longevity, and a focus on preventative care.

Originally from Westchester, New York, Vass has enjoyed a lifelong passion for grappling. He has a High School State Championship and was captain of both his High School and College wrestling teams. He continues to compete today, recently winning the Masters Championships on the US National and World level in International Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Federation competitions.

When not spending time with family or grappling, he also loves to climb rock and ice and whitewater kayak.
