Dr. Robert Todd Hurst, MD, FACC, FASE

Top3Doctors.com selected Dr. Robert Todd Hurst as a top longevity medicine doctor in Phoenix because of his cardiology training, his Mayo Clinic background, and his focus on preventing heart disease. He is a board-certified preventive cardiologist and a Fellow of both the American College of Cardiology and the American Society of Echocardiography. His career includes about 20 years at Mayo Clinic. While there, he founded the Heart Health and Performance Program at Mayo Clinic Arizona, which the practice describes as the institution’s first heart disease prevention clinic. That history gives his longevity work a strong medical base.

What we like most about Dr. Hurst is how much he measures before he makes a plan. HealthspanMD, which he founded with internist Dr. Lisa Hurst, sits inside the Biltmore Medical Mall on Highland Avenue. New members complete a one-day assessment that can include DEXA, VO2 max, resting metabolic rate, cognitive testing, and heart and lab work. His team then tracks progress with coaching and support for nutrition, sleep, and physical therapy. Common concerns include high calcium scores, high Lp(a), and prediabetes. For these reasons, Top3Doctors.com proudly names Dr. Robert Todd Hurst among the top three longevity medicine doctors in Phoenix.
