My Next Step Toward a Medicine 3.0 Life: How I Finally Found a System That Matches Peter Attia’s Philosophy

In my previous article My Journey to Medicine 3.0: How Peter Attia Changed the Way I Think About Health I explored how Peter Attia’s framework changed the way I think about health, longevity, and prevention.

In my previous article My Journey to Medicine 3.0: How Peter Attia Changed the Way I Think About Health I explored how Peter Attia’s framework changed the way I think about health, longevity, and prevention.

What I didn’t fully appreciate at the time was this:

Understanding Medicine 3.0 is easy. Implementing it inside the Australian healthcare system is not.

Over an 18 month period, I tried. Hard.
And it highlighted the gap between our system (Medicine 2.0) and the future Attia is pushing us toward (Medicine 3.0).


Trying to Implement Medicine 3.0 With Traditional GPs

For 18 months, I rotated between three different GPs, doing health checks every six months. My intention was simple:

Run the basic Attia principles:
Advanced lipids, PSA, metabolic markers, inflammation markers, and a handful of biomarkers that should be standard in proactive health.

Instead, it became a frustrating game of pushback:

  • “You don’t need that test.”
  • “Medicare won’t cover it.”
  • “These aren’t clinically relevant.”
  • “This seems excessive.”

I repeatedly said:
“I will pay for everything privately.”
Still, they refused or resisted.

I got a few extra blood panels here and there, but nowhere near the baseline Attia uses with his patients.

That’s when I realised:
Medicine 3.0 requires a system designed for it, not a GP practice retrofitted around it.

So I went looking for a service in Australia that actually takes longevity seriously……..not reactively, but proactively.


Discovering Everlab: Australia’s Closest Version of the Attia Model

After weeks of hunting, I found Everlab (https://www.everlab.com.au/) and it immediately felt like someone launched a Peter Attia–style clinic in Australia.

  • Subscription-based.
  • Data-driven.
  • Deep diagnostics.
  • Longitudinal care.
  • A multidisciplinary team.
  • Actual implementation, not “come back in six months.”

It was the first time I felt like Medicine 3.0 has finally arrived in Australia.

Before outlining my plan, here’s what the Everlab platform looks like.

Your biomarkers are categorised into Optimal, Suboptimal, and Out of Range, with tracking over time, exactly how Attia monitors progress: by trendlines, not snapshots.

Your biological age, biomarker load, and upcoming tasks form one integrated view …….again, highly aligned with Attia’s philosophy of structured prevention.


What Everlab Actually Provides (Attia-Style Medicine 3.0)

Everlab offers a complete and structured longevity program built around:

1. Full Diagnostic Testing

Including:

  • ApoB
  • Lp(a)
  • LDL particle breakdown
  • hs-CRP
  • Full metabolic panel
  • Hormones
  • Liver/kidney
  • Nutrient status (B12, Vit D, iron, etc.)
  • PSA
  • Biological age calculation
  • DEXA scan
  • VO₂ max & performance testing

2. Longitudinal Health Tracking

  • 100+ biomarkers
  • Biological age changes
  • Cardiometabolic risk shifts
  • Muscle, bone, and visceral fat trends
  • Fitness and performance improvements

3. Continuous Coaching & Intervention

  • Personalised training plan
  • Strength, zone-2, VO₂ max protocols
  • Nutrition programming
  • Behaviour and habit design
  • Quarterly reviews
  • Annual review + full retesting

4. A Team-Based Approach

Unlike a GP clinic, Everlab uses:

  • Doctors
  • Nutritionists
  • Exercise physiologists
  • Longevity coaches
  • Data analysts

This is almost exactly how Attia structures his US practice.


My Everlab Plan: Step-by-Step (Medicine 3.0 in Action)

Step 1 — Initial Online Consultation (Doctor)

Review goals, history, current health, and what you want from the next decade of life.

Step 2 — Initial Blood Tests

Advanced biomarkers across heart, metabolic, hormonal, nutritional, and cancer-related panels.

Step 3 — DEXA Scan

Measure:

  • lean muscle mass
  • visceral fat
  • bone mineral density
  • fat distribution

Step 4 — Physical Performance Test (Exercise Physiologist)

Strength, conditioning, cardio fitness, mobility — baseline metrics for training plans.

Step 5 — Glucose Monitoring + Nutrition Logging (2 weeks)

You wear a CGM and capture photos of meals to analyse metabolic responses.

Step 6 — Online Consultation (Nutritionist)

A personalised metabolic, longevity, and nutrition framework is built around your data.

Step 7 — Online Consultation (Doctor) — The 6-Month Plan

All data is consolidated to create:

  • your training plan
  • nutrition strategy
  • longevity interventions
  • biomarker targets

Step 8 — 6-Month Re-Test (Bloods + Physical + DEXA)

Track progress over the first half of the year.

Step 9 — Online Consultation (Doctor) — Next 6-Month Mapping

Review progress, adjust goals, modify training, nutrition, and protocols.

Step 10 — Final 12-Month Review

At the end of the 12 months:

  • repeat all diagnostics
  • compare against initial baseline
  • assess changes in biological age, cardiovascular risk, metabolic health, body composition, strength and conditioning
  • map the next 12 months if you choose to continue

This final review is essentially your “Year 1 report card,” showing the cumulative impact of training, diet, behaviour, supplementation, and lifestyle changes across the full Medicine 3.0 cycle.


Where I’m At Now……And What Comes Next

I began the Everlab program in April 2025, and so far the experience has been genuinely eye-opening. Within just the first few months, the testing and specialist reviews uncovered a number of blind spots I had never considered , things no GP had ever flagged, and areas I didn’t even know I needed to optimise.

As a result, I’ve already made meaningful changes to:

  • my exercise routine (strength balance, conditioning targets, zone-2 discipline)
  • my diet (meal timing, glucose response, macronutrient adjustments)
  • my supplements (dialling in what I actually need based on data, not guesswork)

The program has shown me how much opportunity there is when you look at health through the Medicine 3.0 lens: measure deeply, personalise aggressively, and iterate continuously.

I’m only partway through the journey ……the full cycle runs for 12 months……and at the end of it I’ll publish a detailed article sharing:

  • what changed
  • what improved
  • what the data showed
  • and the exact training, nutrition and lifestyle shifts that made the biggest difference

For now, I can say this:
starting Everlab in April 2025 has been one of the most impactful decisions I’ve made for my long-term health. More to come.
