Our Philosophy

Medicine designed for those who refuse to settle

You've likely been told your labs are "normal." That what you're feeling is just age, stress, or in your head. We exist for the patients conventional medicine has failed: those who want to optimize, regenerate, and perform at the level their life demands.

We don't manage symptoms with prescriptions. We work on the systems underneath them, using the most advanced regenerative therapies available in modern medicine.

The full story, for the 30-minute readers

Why we don't take insurance. Insurance was built to manage disease, not optimize human biology. The therapies that actually move the needle on aging, performance, and regeneration are not reimbursed because they are not conventional, and that is precisely the point. Real regenerative medicine requires time, expertise, and the freedom to design protocols around the patient rather than the billing code.

Our story. Nascent Health was founded by Stuart Southern and Dr. Ashley Southern, partners in life and in business. The flagship clinic calls Scottsdale home; a second location in Boise, Idaho brings the same standard of advanced regenerative care to the Mountain West. Whether you find us in Scottsdale or Boise, the standard is the same: medicine that doesn't just keep you alive, but helps you live exceptionally well.

Patient Stories

Don't take our word for it

★★★★★

Dr. Southern was very thorough in her approach to my health issues and resolved a chronic pain issue I had been dealing with for at least 3 years. No other doctor could provide me the long-term relief that she has.

Dr. Southern is really considering all aspects of my treatment to dial in the best plan as we go. They even accommodated a virtual visit for me while at our second home for the summer.

The Reserve

Dr. Ashley Southern's private, white-glove concierge practice · By application only

The Reserve is our VIP concierge program: a deliberately small group of patients who work with Dr. Southern directly, outside the standard clinic structure. Enrollment is capped each year and closes when the roster is full. It is for the patient who has already decided their health is the most important asset they own.

  • Priority scheduling with direct physician access
  • Comprehensive annual longevity assessment
  • Custom regenerative therapy protocols
  • Quarterly biomarker optimization panels
  • Telehealth between in-person visits

Common Questions

Before you book

Do you take insurance?

No, by design. Insurance was built to manage disease, not optimize biology. Operating outside it lets us design protocols around you rather than a billing code, with the time and therapies that actually move the needle.

Which therapy is right for me?

That's what the consultation is for. Dr. Southern reviews your history, goals, and labs, then recommends a protocol: often combining stem cell, exosome, and IV ozone therapy, which work synergistically.

Is stem cell therapy FDA-approved?

No, and any clinic telling you otherwise is misinforming you. The FDA has approved certain cord-blood-derived products for a narrow set of blood and immune disorders. The mesenchymal cell therapies used in regenerative medicine, including ours, are not FDA-approved products. What we can tell you is exactly what we do use: cells from screened donor tissue, donated after healthy full-term births with donor consent, with sourcing documentation available for you to review at your consultation. Dr. Southern will walk you through what the current evidence supports for your specific situation, and what it does not. We would rather you hear that from us than discover it later.

Do you offer hormone therapy or weight loss?

Hormone optimization and medical weight loss are available at Nascent, calibrated from comprehensive lab work. PRP and regenerative aesthetics are coming soon.

Your body has to carry you through the next several decades. Invest accordingly.
