As part of a national search, accomplished clinicians from across the U.S. including physicians and neuropsycologists have relocated to the region to help lead the Aviv Medical Program. Additionally, local talents, including dietitians, paramedics, physical therapists and a range of licensed nurses, have joined the Aviv team.<\/p>\n

\u201cAlthough the timing did not allow for a splashy grand opening, our soft opening did allow our team to support the community in a meaningful way through the administration of COVID-19 tests [as part of The Villages\u2019 municipality-wide effort],\u201d said David Globig, CEO of Aviv Clinics-Florida. \u201cConnecting with our new neighbors under these circumstances is far from conventional, but incredibly meaningful. We all have a greater appreciation and value for protecting the health of others and ourselves.\u201d<\/p>\n

Aviv Clinics first found its way to Central Florida in 2019 when it was selected for the Florida High Tech Corridor\u2019s Matching Grant Research Program through the University of South Florida. As part of the program goals, the state connects innovative industry groups with high caliber academic centers to infuse innovations, encourage economic growth and attract high-paying jobs to Florida\u2019s central corridor. Since funding was awarded, the Aviv Medical Program \u2013 which scientifically proven to improve brain performance in areas such as memory, attention, processing speed, focus and physical performance such as power, energy, stamina and enhance the quality of life in aging adults \u2013 has garnered global praise for peer-reviewed research and study findings.<\/p>\n

Carla VandeWeerd, Ph.D., served as USF\u2019s principal investigator for the Florida High Tech Corridor-supported study and, in her current role as the Director of the University of Florida\u2019s Clinical and Translational Science Institute Research Program, she remains involved with Aviv through collaborative research projects at The Villages Health – indicating the partnership, which began as part of Florida\u2019s High Tech Corridor program, is yielding lasting benefits.<\/p>\n

\u201cHaving first worked with the Aviv team in 2019, it\u2019s been extraordinary to see their significant contribution and commitment \u2013 both globally and locally \u2013 to learning in the area of brain health and to serving needs of older adults,\u201d said Carla VandeWeerd, Ph.D., Director of the University of Florida\u2019s Clinical and Translational Science Institute Research Program. \u201cFrom publishing scientific\u00a0medical research, to hosting physician-led educational seminars for the community, the medical team at Aviv Clinics is dedicated to helping people live a fulfilling and healthy life, at any age.\u201d<\/p>\n

Notably, in November 2020, Aviv Clinics\u2019 proprietary treatment protocol \u2013 developed using the latest research in the fields of aging, neuroscience, physiology and hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) \u2013 was published in the peer-review journal Aging<\/a>. The landmark study, part of a comprehensive research program targeting aging as a reversible disease, is a world-first in proving biological age reversal. Outside of Israel, the Aviv Medical Program is only available in The Villages, FL.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe application of oxygen to improve performance is a field of research that has only recently received attention,\u201d explained Elliot Sussman, M.D., Chairman of The Villages Health. \u201cWe are confident that members of The Villages community stand to benefit significantly from our approach to improving both physical and brain performance.\u201d<\/p>\n
