Clinic Overview & Credentials
When Lori Ringland walked into Anti-Aging & Regenerative Associates (AARA) in Port Orange, she wasn't expecting much different from her previous medical experiences. Two appointments later, she had received "more information regarding my health than I ever had in the past," including what she describes as "THE most thorough" blood panel review she'd ever experienced.
What sets AARA apart isn't just comprehensive testing - it's their interpretation approach. Led by Dr. Jason Schottel, whose credentials span from chiropractic medicine to metabolic cardiology, the clinic performs multi-layer organ scans and extensive blood work that goes beyond standard markers. Jane Harrison, who sought out AARA after open heart surgery in 2020, notes that "he tests for more than just the regular things other doctors do" and provides specific supplement guidance based on individual risk factors.
The clinic's approach combines conventional medicine with newer therapies in an unusually integrated way. Their sexual health program, headed by firefighter-turned-medical-director Ty Tarnow, exemplifies this hybrid model. Rather than just prescribing ED medications, they offer a progression of treatments from shockwave therapy to PRP-based P-shots, often combining approaches based on individual response.
What's striking about AARA's setup is how their specialists interact. Lauren Eggnatz, who focuses on women's health and hormone therapy, regularly consults with Dr. Schottel on complex cases. This creates what patient Barbara Misiak experienced as unhurried, comprehensive care where "Doctor Lauren took her time to go over everything with me with no rush at all."
AARA's decision to operate outside insurance networks is both a strength and limitation. While it allows them to spend more time with patients and order specialized tests that insurance might deny, it also puts their services out of reach for some patients. They're transparent about this tradeoff, arguing that the assembly-line approach of insurance-based practices often misses underlying causes.
The clinic excels in several areas:
However, they're not the best fit for:
While patient reviews are overwhelmingly positive, it's important to note that many of their treatments, particularly in the regenerative medicine space, are still considered experimental by mainstream medicine. Their approach to testing and treatment is more aggressive than most conventional practices, which some patients love but others might find overwhelming.
AARA represents a growing trend in medicine: comprehensive practices that combine multiple modalities under one roof. Their strength lies not in any single treatment but in their willingness to layer approaches and adjust based on individual response. As Jane Harrison put it, they're for patients who are "serious about their health" and willing to invest in a more intensive approach to wellness.
While their model won't fit everyone's needs or budget, for patients seeking a more comprehensive approach to aging and wellness - particularly those who haven't found success with conventional methods - AARA offers a legitimate alternative to standard medical practices.
