Dr. Joy Kong, Stem Cell Pioneer, MindBodySpirit Series ep.3

There are times when words pale to the task of encapsulating such an enigmatic tycoon of industriousness, self directed morals, cerebral brilliance, as well as the wonders of an exquisitely learned person having retained the genius quality of a childlike approach to science.

Dr. Joy Kong checks all those boxes and more, from being a pioneer in the stem cell space (something quite deeply lacking in American sciences) to a bold innovator in the newly blossoming field of psychedelic therapeutic modalities. She is clearly not one to stray behind the lines of the well worn path in everyday medicine.

It is only thanks to such vanguard charging personalities that humanity has any progress in the form of applicable knowledge at all. These are no overstatements nor a hyperbolic gesture of words, Dr. Kong is a dyed in the wool modern day masterclass in the life of a scientist-groundbreaker. Someone for who the hippocratic oath is not merely a numb cluster of words, but an identifier of class of soul who would do no less than uphold its creed.

Plainly put, she is super awesome. Listen close and take a look at what a brilliant and curious mind can accomplish.

Joy Kong, M.D. is a UCLA-trained, triple board-certified physician (American Board of Psychiatry & Neurology, American Board of Addiction Medicine, American Board of Anti-Aging & Regenerative Medicine). She is the president of Uplyft Longevity Center in Los Angeles, California, where she specializes in stem cell therapy, ketamine therapy, as well as a wide range of therapeutic modalities to enhance overall health and combat diseases in a holistic approach, esp. by enhancing the body’s innate regenerative potentials.

Dr. Kong believes in advancing the field of stem cell therapy through education of both physicians and the public in general. She founded American Academy of Integrative Cell Therapy, where she provides training to physicians on the science, clinical evidence and safe protocols in Stem Cell Therapy. She serves as a board member of American Association of Stem Cell Physicians, and a faculty member of Medical Wellness Association (a leading global organization on health and wellness). As a proponent for high quality clinical research, Dr. Kong is committed to originating and conducting such research studies, and is a published author in scientific journals.

In addition, Dr. Kong is the founder and CEO of Chara Biologics, a company dedicated to providing cutting-edge regenerative medicine products in the US and to the global market. She developed the most potent and comprehensive stem cell product in the country with a patent-pending formulation.

Dr. Kong was also featured in the 2021 book HEROES, LEADERS, LEGENDS: the Power of the Human Spirit, along with movers and shakers such as Oprah Winfrey, Deepak Chopra and Maya Angelo.
