OUR DOCTORS
Dr. Joseph Jaros and Dr. Jan Jay
DR. JAN JAY
Born in Hawaii and of Asian descent, Dr. Jay grew up in a family that utilized both Chinese and Western medicine.
Two incidents in her life led her to the career path she now leads: At the age of 12, she had a near death experience when her airway swelled shut while she was sick with croup. She spent 3 months in intensive care due to complications, and attributes her survival to the innovation of allopathic medicine. Then at the age of 21, while pursuing her studies at the University of California Irvine, she was involved in a serious car accident. Doctors told her she was permanently, partially disabled. Unwilling to accept that fate, she sought alternative care for her rehabilitation, and acupuncture was one of the therapies she employed.
Dr. Jay began her formal training in Chinese medicine at the Tai Hsuan Foundation in Honolulu, and completed her degree at the International Institute of Chinese Medicine in Albuquerque and Santa Fe.
Following graduation, she continued to expand her knowledge and skill by completing training at The Academy of Advanced Integrative Medicine where she was able to achieve Expanded Practice certification, the highest NM licensure designation for Doctors of Oriental Medicine — Expanded Practice. She is certified in Chelation Therapy through the American College of Advancement in Medicine (ACAM), has extensive training in Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) through the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine, and has studied oxidative therapies with Dr. Lamberto Re and Dr. Frank Shallenberger. She has also completed advanced training in nutrient infusion therapies through both ACAM & A4M.
Dr. Jay’s passion is in the practice of “Functional Medicine”, in which she draws upon her different areas of training to restore or optimize a patient’s health.
DR. JOSEPH JAROS
Dr. Jaros specializes in anti-aging medicine and pain management. He is responsible for planning and personally monitoring each of his patient’s individualized program.
Dr. Jaros received his medical degree from the University of Arizona College of Medicine and trained at Rush Presbyterian St. Luke’s Medical Center in Chicago where he completed his residency in anesthesiology with an interest in pain management.
In addition to his board certification in anesthesiology, Dr. Jaros is board certified in Age Management by the Age Management Medical Group where he earned the Cenegenics Certification in Age Management Medicine and is also a member of the American Academy of Anti-Aging.
Dr. Jaros has also proudly served in the New Mexico Air National Guard where he was a former Lt. Colonel and Flight Surgeon for the 150th Fighter Wing.
By integrating peer reviewed preventive medicine and science with his experience in pain management, bio-identical hormone replacement, fitness training, nutrition and weight management, Dr. Jaros strives to create a partnership with patients to promote longevity and an optimal quality of life for everyone.
The goal is to help people feel well, look well and live well by delaying, preventing and possibly even reversing the signs and symptoms of aging which can lead to chronic pain and decreased quality of life associated with aging.
