Dr. Benjamin Krasne is a board-certified Anesthesiologist with deep expertise in preventive medicine, metabolic health, and longevity optimization. He earned his medical degree from the University of Miami Leonard M. Miller School of Medicine in 2013 and completed his Anesthesiology residency at the University of Miami / Jackson Health System - one of the largest and most complex medical centers in the United States, providing broad exposure to high-acuity patient care and pharmacology.
Beyond his anesthesiology training, Dr. Krasne has built specialized expertise in the root causes of metabolic and age-related disease. His approach draws on cardiovascular, hormonal, and metabolic science to proactively optimize health markers rather than waiting for disease to manifest. He holds active medical licenses across U.S. states, reflecting his commitment to expanding access to evidence-based preventive care through telehealth.
At Heally, Dr. Krasne is the primary medical reviewer for the platform's largest content category - GLP-1 weight loss medications, including semaglutide (Wegovy, Ozempic, Rybelsus), tirzepatide (Zepbound, Mounjaro), oral Wegovy, longevity protocols, NAD+ therapy, sermorelin, methylene blue, acarbose, and peptide therapies. His pharmacological background and preventive medicine focus make him ideally suited to review clinical content on metabolic optimization.
