Expert in precision medicine and hormone optimization
Dr. Rohan Bissoondath, born and raised in Calgary, Alberta, is an innovative physician deeply immersed in the science of health, aging, and precision medicine. He proudly serves as the founder and Medical Director of Xone Precision Medicine, a ground-breaking clinic set to redefine healthcare in his hometown through the power of precision medicine.
His academic journey began at the University of Calgary and the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, where he earned a BSc in Zoology in 1989. In pursuit of his passion for medicine, he traveled to Trinidad and Tobago, studying at the University of the West Indies, and earning his medical degree in 1996. After spending a decade away, he returned home to Calgary in 2001, where he served in various medical roles and founded Preventous Collaborative Health in 2007 to emphasize preventive care.
During the COVID lockdowns, Dr. Bissoondath found an opportunity for intellectual expansion. He delved into the realm of precision medicine, a field that resonated with his vision of proactive and personalized healthcare. His approach to precision medicine is captured in a simple, yet profound equation: Genome (an individual’s unique genetic makeup) + Envirome (an individual’s environment and lifestyle choices) = Phynome. The term “Phynome” represents an individual’s phenotype, essentially the set of observable characteristics or traits, including their health, that arise from the interaction of their genetics and environment.
Dr. Bissoondath’s understanding and practice of precision medicine have been shaped by a wealth of life experiences and professional development, augmented by a diverse array of resources including novels, textbooks, scientific literature, and insightful podcasts.
In 2022, his commitment to precision medicine was further strengthened when he earned a postgraduate Certification in Precision Medicine from the University of Calgary’s Department of Medicine. His aspiration at Xone Precision Medicine is to use this approach to significantly enhance both the quality and the length of an individual’s life.
Outside his professional commitments, Dr. Bissoondath finds fulfillment in his roles as a father to three daughters and a husband. He promotes a balanced lifestyle encompassing healthy eating, regular physical activity, optimal sleep, and mindfulness.
With Xone Precision Medicine, Dr. Bissoondath brings his vision of precision medicine to Calgary, aiming to revolutionize healthcare delivery and improve patient outcomes through individualized, data-driven treatments.
