Abstract

Abstract Concierge medicine emerged as a promising approach to offer exclusive and personalized treatments using genomic tools. In aging studies, concierge medicine has the potential to transform the treatment and prevention of age-associated and related diseases through pharmacogenetics and nutrigenomics; however, its use of genomic data raises important bioethical concerns, including privacy, consent, equity issues and potential misuse of these data for discriminatory purposes. Hence, careful consideration should be given to the biomedical, social, and ethical aspects of concierge medicine in aging contexts. Our review explores the main aspects of age-related pharmacogenetics and nutrigenomics data in concierge medicine, discussing the bioethical concerns involved in its use.
