Paul Navar, M.D. is a board certified emergency
physician who has been in practice for over 22 years.
He is a graduate of Stanford University, and earned his medical degree from Southwestern Medical School in Dallas, where he was a merit scholarship recipient. He graduated in the top 10% of his medical school class, is
a member of the Alpha Omega Alpha medical honor society, and received the outstanding intern award from the University of Utah Affiliated Hospitals in 1983.
In his residency, Dr. Navar was a research fellow at the University of Utah Burn and Trauma Center and is the author of several medical articles that have appeared in the American Journal of Surgery, Current Surgery and the American Journal of Physiology. From 1986 through 2001, Dr. Navar was the medical director of two very busy emergency departments in El Paso, Texas, where he employed and supervised a staff of 15 to 20 emergency physicians who saw over 75,000 patients per year.
After years of seeing the devastating effects of preventable disease and hormonal imbalance, Dr. Navar developed an interest in holistic preventive medicine and bioidentical hormone replacement. His practice in this area began 6 years ago and has rapidly grown and become his passion. In the last few years he has pursued additional training from internationally known leaders in the specialty of Hormone Replacement/Age Management Medicine. In 2006, he was elected to membership of the Age Management Medicine Group, the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine, the North American Menopause Society (NAMS) and the Society for Applied Research in Aging. In 2007, he passed certification examinations to become a diplomat of the American Board of Anti-Aging and Regenerative Medicine and a NAMS Certified Menopause Practitioner. With the establishment of his full-time private practice he becomes St. George’s premier physician expert in the field of bioidentical hormone replacement for male and female menopause and age management medicine.
