Our Mission
“Sur” carries deep meaning in both Hebrew (צוּר) and Sanskrit (सुर), symbolizing strength, vitality, and well-being. It reflects our commitment to building lasting foundations for health—integrating body, mind, and spirit.
At Sur , we’re reimagining what it means to care for the whole person. As board-certified emergency medicine physicians, we've treated tens of thousands of patients in ERs across the country—and we've seen firsthand the failings of our healthcare system. Too many people can't get access to timely, physician-led care. Instead, they’re left to navigate chronic disease, side effects from one-size-fits-all treatments, and confusing advice from non-medical providers. That’s why we created Sur: to deliver evidence-based, physician-led care with a focus on longevity, metabolic health, and precision medicine. Our patients build lasting relationships with us, certified coaches, and a team committed to helping them live better, longer.
