Brief Intro

Dr. Susan Sklar is a nationally recognized Harvard trained physician and a fierce health detective who believes that you can age gracefully and feel great while doing so. She believes that that hormonal and other biochemical deficiencies cause humans to age and decline in ways that are not necessary or inevitable. She utilizes the cutting edge science of functional medicine to support the body to heal itself through the restoration of hormones, proper nutrition, lifestyle and appropriate supplementation. Her own health journey eventually led her to pursue training in anti-aging and regenerative medicine with the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine. Dr. Sklar started her medical training at the Boston University School of Medicine, served an internship at Boston City Hospital and completed her obstetrics and gynecology residency at Harvard’s Beth Israel Hospital. After more than 25 years of experience as an Obstetrician-Gynecologist Dr. Sklar started the Sklar Center for Restorative Medicine in 2007.
