Dr. Carlos Gutiérrez
Director of ZEM Clinic / Specialist in Longevity Medicine and Family Medicine
A physician with over 25 years of international clinical experience, specialising in precision medicine, prevention, and healthy longevity.
ZEM Clinic
Precision medicine with a human touch.
At ZEM Wellness Clinic Altea, medicine is viewed as a deep understanding of the body. Every assessment is based on a clear principle: measure to understand, and understand to act. From there, we design personalised strategies focused on prevention, biological optimization, and longevity.
Our approach integrates clinical science and sustainable habits, focusing on the systems that most influence quality of life: metabolism, energy, the nervous system, immunity, functional recovery, and regenerative processes.
Each intervention is tailored to the individual’s biology, phenotype, and exposome to deliver consistent, long-lasting results.
Diagnostic Lab
Any health improvement programme requires a plan. ZEM Diagnostic Lab is the starting point for all our programmes lasting 7 nights or more. Before we guide you, we make sure we understand how your body works.
WE MAP.
WE MEASURE.
WE LISTEN.
Understanding your body is the foundation of everything we do. Through a comprehensive assessment of your physical, metabolic, cardiovascular, cognitive and functional health, we build an accurate and complete picture of who you are from a biological perspective.
Every decision we make from there is based on your data, your biology and your actual needs.

THE 8-STEP ASSESSMENT
Our diagnostic programme consists of eight advanced assessments. Each one provides a vital layer of information, enabling us to build an accurate picture of your health.
Vital Signs
We measure blood pressure, heart rate, oxygen saturation, and body temperature to understand your body’s essential physiological state.
Advanced Electrocardiogram
A non-invasive cardiac evaluation that goes beyond a standard ECG. Using the Cardisio system, we analyse your heart’s electrical activity to gain a precise picture of cardiovascular function.
Body Composition
We look at how your body is built from the inside: muscle mass, fat distribution, hydration, and metabolic balance — the foundations of how you feel and how you perform.
3D Body Scanner
A full postural and morphological analysis that reveals how you move, how you stand, and where imbalances may be limiting your potential.
Cardiovascular health and the autonomic nervous system
Through Heart Rate Variability (HRV) analysis, we assess the balance of your autonomic nervous system — a key indicator of how your body manages stress, recovery, and overall resilience.
Grip Strength
A simple but highly revealing measure. Hand grip strength is one of the most reliable indicators of functional ageing, muscle health, and long-term vitality.
Facial Skin Health
Using advanced imaging technology, we evaluate your skin’s condition in depth — texture, pigmentation, and signs of photoageing — as a reflection of your internal health and biological age.
Mental Performance
We assess attention, memory, and cognitive function to ensure your mental health receives the same level of care and precision as your physical wellbeing.
PRECISION WITH A HUMAN TOUCH.
ZEM DIAGNOSTIC LAB’s advanced assessment programme enables us to gain an accurate and comprehensive picture of your physical, metabolic, cardiovascular, cognitive and functional health before starting any programme lasting 7 nights or more.
Our medical team interprets each result with clinical rigour and genuine care, transforming the data into a clear understanding of how your body works and what it truly needs.
Building on this foundation, consultations and diagnoses are carried out across various medical specialities, enabling us to precisely define the most appropriate treatment pathway for each individual. From nutrition and exercise to specialised therapies and recovery protocols, every element of the programme is tailored to your biology, your goals and your actual state of health.
When the body is understood in depth, every decision makes sense. That is where true precision begins.
Analytics and Tests
Collecting relevant clinical data provides insight into the body’s metabolic, inflammatory, hormonal, and functional status.
Consult with Specialists
The results are discussed during a medical consultation to establish clear and understandable health goals.
Treatment
Our treatment plans are tailored to each individual and, where appropriate, incorporate clinical medicine, nutrition, exercise, and rehabilitation therapies to ensure lasting results.
Terms and Conditions
