Rewriting the Rules of Medicine: Dr. Samatha’s Radical Beginning

In this episode of Beginnings, we sit down with Dr. Samatha - Internal Medicine and Longevity Physician, and Co-founder of PMX Health, one of India’s pioneering longevity medicine practices.

Dr. Samatha was on track to become an oncologist - until she found herself meeting patients too late in their journey. What followed was a relentless pursuit of a better question: How do we intervene earlier? How do we optimize health, not just react to illness?
This led her to a radical pivot: away from disease management, and toward something far more ambitious -creating health.

This is a conversation about what it means to step outside the traditional healthcare system and try to rebuild it - from the inside out.

She talks about:
1. Her decision to leave the conventional clinical path
2. How she started practicing systems biology before she even had a name for it
3. Why India needed a new model of care -one that’s preventive, personalized, and deeply human
4. The early days of PMX Health: from fragmented testing to a 3M framework (Measuring, Mentoring, Monitoring)
5. How her team now catches age-related diseases early, reverses chronic conditions, and helps clients optimize health at every stage
6. And the internal battles she faced bringing a whole new approach to a risk-averse medical landscape

Today, PMX Health blends diagnostics, genomics, biomarker analysis, and long-term patient mentorship to deliver what Dr. Samatha calls 5P Medicine.
