Aleksander Bodnar, MD, FAARFM, ABAARM, FACOG
My name is Dr. Aleksander Bodnar. I am practicing in Clifton, NJ 07012 and Linden, NJ 07036.
My mission and passion is anti-aging medicine, and daily determination for new advances in nutrition, endocrinology and exercise.
Our approach is not a symptoms-focused medical model typical of conventional medicine. We are a unique anti-aging practice because of our knowledge, experience, and expertise in testing and understanding the aging process. Our knowledge allows us to slow degenerative processes down, and frequently reverse aging changes.
I am currently accepting new patients. Can I answer any questions for you?
