Performance & Longevity
Your Performance and Longevity, Built Around Your Bloodwork.
Physician-led performance and longevity care in La Cañada Flintridge. Dr. Luis Valle reviews your goals and your bloodwork, then builds physician-supervised peptide protocols around your physiology: recovery, energy, body composition, sleep, and healthy aging. It starts with a full hour, one-on-one, with the physician who will direct your care.
Finding a Protocol Was Never the Hard Part.
The internet is full of optimization protocols promising more energy, faster recovery, and a leaner body. Most of it is sold with no evaluation, no bloodwork, and no one accountable for whether it fits you or how you use it. Finding a protocol was never the hard part. Doing it right is.
Optimization is not one thing, and it should not be one plan. What works for recovery is not what works for body composition or sleep. Most places hand you the same regimen they hand everyone. We build physician-supervised peptide protocols the other way: from your physiology out.
It starts with a real medical evaluation. Dr. Valle, a board-certified physician, reviews your history and your bloodwork, understands your goals, and only then builds a protocol around them. He sets the plan, sets the dosing, and monitors how your body responds. If something is not right for what you are trying to do, he says so.
The alternative is months on an unverified protocol with no baseline and no one accountable for the result. Paying $500 once for a physician to tell you what actually moves the needle, including whether now is even the time, is the cheap version of that decision. A physician who knows your history, directing a plan built for you, is the part the internet cannot sell you.
The Assessment
What Your $500 Health Assessment Includes
A full hour, one-on-one, in person with Dr. Valle. No telehealth mill gives you an hour with the physician who directs your care.
A board-certified physician and Medical Director reviewing your health history, your goals, and your bloodwork (labs you bring or already have).
An honest go/no-go read, including “not now” if that is the right answer for you.
Your protocol direction, discussed one-on-one: what it would involve, how it would be dosed, and how it would be monitored.
A physician relationship, not a portal. The doctor who evaluates you is the one who directs your protocol.
What a Protocol Might Include
True Roots is a licensed, in-person medical practice, not an online storefront. You are evaluated by Dr. Valle in person before anything is considered, your bloodwork comes first, and your progress is monitored over time. Nothing is sold from a shelf, and no protocol begins without a physician standing behind it.
There is no menu here, and nothing is decided before Dr. Valle has looked at your labs and your goals. What a protocol involves depends entirely on you. As examples, a plan he builds might draw on tesamorelin for body composition and metabolic support, KPV for recovery and inflammation, or testosterone support where your bloodwork and symptoms point to it.
Whether any of these fit you, at what dose, and for how long is a physician's call, made with you and revisited as your body responds. If something is not right for what you are trying to do, he will tell you.
Four Steps, One Physician, Start to Finish
Book Your Health Assessment
You sit down with Dr. Valle, a board-certified physician, for a full hour, one-on-one. He reviews your history, your goals, and your bloodwork, then gives you an honest read on what will actually move the needle for you, and he will tell you if now is not the time. That is what the $500 buys: a full hour of his time, his expertise, and a straight answer. A real medical evaluation, not a sales call. You leave knowing where you stand, either way.
Your Individualized Protocol
Your protocol is discussed one-on-one after your assessment. No templates, no one-size plan. Dr. Valle builds it around your physiology and your goals across recovery, energy, body composition, sleep, and healthy aging, and walks you through exactly what to expect and over what timeline.
Physician-Directed, Start to Finish
Everything runs through Dr. Valle. He sets your protocol and your dosing and holds it to the same standard he applies across hormone optimization and TRT. No portal, no faceless telehealth script.
Ongoing Monitoring
Dr. Valle tracks how you respond and adjusts as you go. You are working with a physician who follows your progress over time, not managing it on your own.

What Physician-Directed Actually Looks Like
A full hour, in person, with Dr. Valle.
Your protocol decided by your bloodwork, not a checkout page.
US-made, cGMP, third-party tested, COA on request.
Dosing set and titrated by a physician, not a forum.
Follow-up labs and a doctor to call once your protocol is running.
You did the research. You read the studies, compared the sources, and learned more than most clinics assume their patients ever will. Bring all of it. The assessment is where your research meets your bloodwork and a physician who can tell you what it actually means for your body.
Dr. Luis Valle

Common Questions. Honest Answers.
A board-certified physician runs it end to end. Dr. Valle evaluates you in person, reviews your bloodwork, decides what fits your goals, sets your dosing, and monitors how you respond over time. That physician judgment, applied to you specifically, is what makes it safe. Not a plan you found online and ran on your own.
The honest answer is that it depends on the goal and the person, which is exactly why it starts with a physician. Dr. Valle weighs what is well established against your physiology and your goals, and only recommends a protocol he can stand behind for you specifically. If the case for something is thin for what you are trying to do, he tells you. That honesty is what you are paying for.
A full hour, one-on-one and in person, with Dr. Valle, a board-certified physician and our Medical Director. He reviews your health history, your goals, and any bloodwork you bring or already have, then gives you a straight read on what is worth doing for you, including telling you if now is not the time. If optimization is a fit, he walks you through your protocol direction one-on-one: what it would involve, how it would be dosed, and how it would be monitored. The $500 is a flat, standalone fee for his time and his evaluation. It is a real medical assessment, not a sales call.
Because it is not a deposit, and it is not a sales call. Dr. Valle has no incentive to sell you a protocol, which is exactly why the $500 stands on its own. What you are buying is an unbiased answer from a board-certified physician: an honest read on what fits you, what does not, and whether now is even the right time, including “not now.” A fee that counts only if you buy something is a sales tool. This is a medical evaluation.
If it is a fit, your protocol is discussed one-on-one after your assessment: what it involves, the dosing, and the timeline. Dr. Valle builds it around your physiology and goals, then tracks your progress and adjusts as you go. If it is not the right fit, he will tell you that and point you toward what is.
Completely different in the ways that matter. Online, you get a protocol from a source you cannot verify, with no evaluation, no bloodwork, and no one accountable for whether it fits you or how you use it. Here, a physician who knows your history evaluates you first, builds the plan around your goals, and monitors how you respond. Same ambition, a completely different level of accountability.
Because the value is the judgment, not the product. Anyone can find a protocol. Very few people can tell you whether it fits your body, at what dose, and how to adjust it as you change. That is what a board-certified physician is for, and it is what the assessment is built around.
Because the right protocol depends entirely on you. Dr. Valle discusses it one-on-one once he understands your goals, your physiology, and what actually fits, which is what the assessment is for. The one published price is the flat $500 Health Assessment, and that is where every protocol starts.
Start With the Hour.
Most people guess at their health for years, running unverified protocols with no baseline and no one accountable for the result. A full hour with Dr. Valle replaces the guessing with a clear, honest picture of where you stand and what is actually worth doing next. The $500 Performance & Longevity Health Assessment buys that hour: his time, his evaluation, your bloodwork and goals reviewed one-on-one, and a straight answer, including whether it is not the right fit for you.
