About
Evelyne Bischof, MD PhD is Medical Director of the Sheba Longevity Center and one of the most visible clinical longevity-medicine leaders globally. She is Swiss-board certified in internal medicine (FMH), a Fellow of the European Federation of Internal Medicine, President of the Healthy Longevity Medicine Society, and co-founder of the Longevity Education Hub, which has trained more than 10,000 physicians. Her work spans internal medicine, geronto-oncology, AI in precision medicine, physician education, and clinical practice across Switzerland, China, the US, and Israel.
What to Know
Signature approach
Bischof reads longevity through internal medicine and geroscience together: organ-system risk, metabolic and cognitive trajectories, oncology risk, and aging biology are part of the same clinical picture. At Sheba, that breadth helps turn the 10-domain assessment into a medically coherent plan rather than a bundle of disconnected test results.
What sets them apart
- Field-level leadership. As HLMS president and Longevity Education Hub co-founder, she helps define clinical longevity-medicine standards.
- Academic and publication depth. Public records show 100+ peer-reviewed papers across longevity medicine, geronto-oncology, AI, and medical education.
- International clinical range. Training and faculty work across Zurich, Basel, Shanghai, Tel Aviv, Boston, and New York give her unusually broad clinical context.
Before You Book
- Medical-director role. She shapes the clinical model; the day-of assessment is delivered by the multidisciplinary Sheba team.
- Direct involvement. Ask during intake how physician review is assigned if her direct input matters for a complex case.
- International pathway. Care occurs through Sheba in Israel; travel patients should route through Sheba Global Patient Services.
