To me, the doctor-patient relationship is ideally a long-term collaboration.  You and I work together to help keep you healthy, and if difficulties should arise, we want you to know you can look to us for reliable, sensitive and competent medical care.

Though most of my patients are young women, often new to New York, I also have many others, both male and female, whom I’ve worked with since I started in private practice more than two decades ago.  

I perform many of the same clinical services an internist does, but as a family practitioner, much of my work also involves routine office gynecology, including Pap smears, oral contraceptives and diagnosis of sexually transmitted diseases.

As a clinical instructor at NYU Langone Medical Center, I refer my patients to many of the most widely respected in-network specialists in the city.  Whether it's here in our office or with a specialist we refer you to, we hope you'll feel that someone is listening to you and your concerns, and giving you the care you deserve.

I look forward to meeting you.

Sincerely,

Val Lyon, MD

Dr. Michael Aziz is a board-certified Internal Medicine physician, author, and a broadcast media commentator. He is as an attending physician at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City. Dr. Aziz completed his medical training at Long Island Jewish Medical Center and Staten Island University Hospital in New York. He is a member of the American College of Physicians,  the American Society of Internal Medicine, and a fellow of the Royal Society of Medicine in the United Kingdom. Dr. Aziz is also a keynote speaker at numerous national and international conferences, including those organized by the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine.

As the founder of the practice that integrates traditional and functional medicine, Dr. Aziz focuses on addressing  the root cause of disease. He is the author of "The Perfect 10 Diet," a book that challenged outdated dietary guidelines in 2010. It is a book that was ahead of its time since it went against established medical guidelines for its position against fake fats promoted by the Amercian Heart Association, and the Harvard Food Pyramid. He advocated a balanced, natural diet with satuarted fats in 2010 long before the new USDA Food Pyramid was introduced in 2026.

Dr. Michael Aziz was among the first doctors to alert the public on national TV about the danger of seed oils, and trans fats 20 years ago, long before the media caught on.  Dr. Aziz was also among the first doctors to alert the public about the dangers of both low-carb and keto diets since nitrites in processed meats have been linked to many types of cancer.  

Upon The perfect 10 Diet release, Dr. Michael Aziz was featured on ABC's billboard in Times Square in NYC. He also made it on the cover of "First for Women," one of the largest magazines in the United States. The Perfect 10 Diet became an instant bestseller. The Perfect 10 Diet hit the number one spot on Amazon for 12 consecutive weeks in 2011, and was picked up to be translated into several foreign languages including; Italian, Chinese, Mandarin, Slovenian, Urdu, Malay, and Indonesian. Dr. Aziz and The Perfect 10 Diet were featured on countless TV shows including "The View," "The Doctors," "Fox and Friends," and "Dr. Oz." He has been a guest on hundreds of radio shows, podcasts, The Mel Robbins show, and NPR.  It was the start of his  national exposure.    

In 2025, Dr. Aziz published his second book, "The Ageless Revolution." It is the first book on the market that addresses aging as a disease. It is a new concept in medicine since it targets cellular malfunction. Alarmed by the high mortality rates in the US during the Covid-19 pandemic, Dr. Aziz emphasizes the need for proactive health measures to improve healthspan, and prolong lifespan. His approach integrates traditional and functional medicine aiming to treat aging rather than treating chronic age-related diseases using supplements, hormone replacement, and peptides. 

The second book was also an immediate bestseller, hitting the number 1 spot in anti-aging, longevity, menopause, and holistic medicine categories on Amazon for several weeks. The book was also picked up  to be translated into several foreign languages including Portuguese ( Brazil), Polish, and Chinese. 

Dr Aziz is a prolific contributor to Life Extension Magazine with the "Ask the Doctor"column which reaches 400,000 readers monthly. He had been a contributor to The Boardroom Newsletters which reached over 7 million subscribers with health advice in 2010's. He is a also a medical contributor to Biohackyourself (website and magazine) that reaches over 3 million people on social  media. Dr. Aziz's columns, articles, and opinions have been published in The LA Times, CNN.com, Fox.com, Newseek, The Washington Post, WebMD, The NY Post, the Daily News, Katie Couric Media, Harper's Bazaar, Forbes, as well as in hundreds of publications internationally around the world such as The Daily Mail, Paris Match, The Saigon Times, and El Arabyia.  Dr. Aziz regularly provides medical commentary on many health networks, including NBC, NPR, Fox, Fox 5 NY, ABC, WGN Chicago,  Telemundo, the Will Cain Show, Pix11, Fox 5, and Dubai TV.

Dr. Aziz is passionate about philanthropy. He volunteered in NYC during the Covid-19 pandemic, and treated underserved communities in remote villages of Indonesia. He is also donating the proceeds of The Ageless Revolution to  charity helping women affected by breast cancer.

She recently completed a Sleep Medicine Fellowship in Connecticut, following her Family Medicine training at Hackensack Meridian Health – Ocean University Medical Center in New Jersey. Her journey to medicine has spanned continents and disciplines, reinforcing her commitment to whole-person care rooted in empathy, evidence, and advocacy.

Before entering medicine, Dr. Iqbal studied Applied Mathematics and Statistics at Stony Brook University. While she loved solving complex problems, she became even more intrigued by the human stories behind the data — the why behind the numbers. That curiosity led her to pursue her medical degree at the American University of Antigua, where she gained a global perspective on healthcare and a deep commitment to equity.

Her clinical path has been rich with experiences — from presenting rare cases at state-level conferences to helping patients manage sleep disorders that quietly affect every aspect of their lives. She is especially passionate about preventative medicine, recognizing its power to reduce long-term risk, improve quality of life, and empower patients to take ownership of their health.

A strong advocate for leadership and policy, Dr. Iqbal has served as the New Jersey State Resident Director for the New Jersey Academy of Family Physicians and held leadership roles with the New York State Academy of Family Physicians. She brings that same drive to every patient interaction, believing that systemic change and compassionate care go hand in hand.

Fluent in English, Urdu, Punjabi, Hindi, and conversational in American Sign Language, Dr. Iqbal sees language as a bridge to connection and healing. At her core, she believes listening is as important as diagnosing — and that compassion is one of medicine’s most powerful tools. She is honored to walk alongside her patients as they navigate their unique health journeys. For 2026, Dr. Iqbal has been notably elected to the Board of Directors for the prestigious Connecticut Academy of Family Physicians.
