Lauded as an international pioneer in the field of anti-aging, Dr. John P. Salerno is a leader in the practice of complementary medicine.  Based in Manhattan, New York, Dr. Salerno has been cited as an expert by national media outlets, retained as a consultant by world-renowned medical luminaries for the launching of treatment facilities across three continents, and referenced by Suzanne Somers in her #1 New York Times bestseller, Ageless, and in her 2009 follow-ups, Breakthrough and Knockout.  Somers told an audience in 2006, “I will personally send patients to Dr. Salerno.”

Dr. Salerno is the founder of the Salerno Center for Complementary Medicine established in New York City in 2005.  He is also the co-founder of anti-aging clinics in Tokyo, and the chief medical officer behind the RenuLife anti-aging and dermatological clinic in Sao Paolo, Brazil.

Best known for his weight-loss treatments, bio-identical hormone replacement, vitamin IV suites, and chelation therapy, a process that removes heavy metals from the body, Dr. Salerno lists dozens of celebrities among his patients.  He combines the teachings of traditional medicine with the wisdom of alternative healing to cleanse the system of toxins and blockages that can cause heart disease, cancer, brain dysfunction, diabetes and others.  He boosts the body’s immune system with products chosen from a line of natural vita-nutrients that he created in conjunction with Dr. Hiroyuki Abe, president of The International Society of Integrative Medicine and owner of the Kudan Clinic in Japan.

After the terrorist bombings of September 11, 2001, Dr. Salerno served as the Medical Director for the World Trade Center Landfill, a position that earned him a commendation from then-mayor Rudy Giuliani. In this capacity, he was charged with monitoring the health of the public workers assigned to manage the landfill where debris from the World Trade Center was transferred.

Prior to holding this position, Dr. Salerno worked in family practice and urgent care at locations in Florida and New York and served as Medical Director of St. Vincent’s Immediate Health Care in Shelton, Connecticut. From 1994 to 1996, he served as a preceptor at the Yale School of Medicine.

Dr. Salerno is a licensed physician in the State of New York and in Florida.  He is also a diplomat of the National Board of Osteopathic Medical Examiners, a board certified member of the American Osteopathic Association, the American College for Advancement in Medicine, the American Medical Association, the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine, and The International Society of Integrative Medicine. In 2011, Dr. Salerno received a certificate from the prestigious New York College of Osteopathic Medicine as an adjunct clinical assistant professor of family medicine.

Dr. Salerno graduated magna cum laude from Adelphi University, where he earned a Bachelor of Science in Biology, and received his Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine degree from New York College of Osteopathic Medicine of New York Institute of Technology.  He completed his internship and Family Practice residency at New York’s Long Beach Medical Center, during which time he conducted lab research at the Columbia University Medical Center.
