Dr. Lisa Saff Koche is not your average physician. Triple board-certified in internal medicine, obesity medicine, and anti-aging/regenerative medicine, she is also a quantum energy practitioner, longevity expert, and founder of Spectra Wellness Solutions. But perhaps her most defining role is that of a visionary — someone who is reimagining the very fabric of healthcare with her groundbreaking approach to “Sovereign Medicine.”

“My goal is to help people break free from the traditional medicine matrix by reclaiming their sovereignty through empowerment, intuition, and personalized care,” says Dr. Koche.

Dr. Koche sat down with TereZa Hakobyan-Lolli and Anthony Lolli, Editors-in-Chief of longevity and wellness platform Biohack Yourself, for an interview for the influential upcoming women’s health documentary, “sHEALed,” and revealed the story behind her healing philosophy, the power of collaborative medicine, and the urgent need for women to reclaim control over their health in today’s chaotic, toxic world.

The sHEALed Documentary is the sister documentary to Biohack Yourself, which became a massive success after exploding on the scene in December 2024 and ignited a firestorm of interest in information focused on health and longevity. Biohack Yourself features 114 prominent and respected high-profile politicians, doctors, bestselling authors, Ph.D.s, M.D.s, scientists, chemists, inventors, biotech investors, and world-renowned academics. Stemming from the success of Biohack Yourself, TereZa Hakobyan-Lolli and Anthony Lolli have grown Biohack Yourself Media to become the number one resource for health news, publishing over 500 articles ranging from breaking news to peer reviewed content.

From Survivor to Sovereign

Dr. Koche’s journey into medicine began with a personal health crisis: a diagnosis of childhood leukemia at just 15 years old. Despite the gravity of her condition — including relapse and chemotherapy-induced heart failure — she had an unshakable sense of purpose.

“I knew there was a reason I was going through this,” she says. “I wasn’t indoctrinated yet, so I kept asking questions no one else was asking — like, ‘Why did this happen to me?’”

It was that relentless curiosity that drove her to medical school. But what she found there — protocols over personalization, symptom suppression over root-cause discovery — left her unsatisfied. When a residency interviewer bluntly asked if she wanted to “watch kids die,” she pivoted from pediatric oncology to prevention, determined to help people avoid illness altogether.

The Power of Collaborative Healing

After years of study in vascular disease and obesity, Dr. Koche began building something radical: a multidisciplinary clinic that treated the whole person. Today, her Tampa-based center, Spectra Wellness Solutions, is an 8,000-square-foot facility housing medical doctors, nurse practitioners, mental health specialists, chiropractors, naturopaths, and biohacking technologies — all under one roof.

“No one should be working alone,” she says. “Healing requires a team. It’s physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual.”

Spectra offers everything from IV therapy and hyperbaric oxygen to stem cells and muscle testing. But it’s not the tools that make it revolutionary — it’s how they’re used. Patients are guided through a personalized protocol rooted in Koche’s signature framework: Reclamation, Healing, Performance, and Transcendence.

The Four Phases of Sovereign Medicine

Dr. Koche’s approach is a step-by-step evolution toward total self-ownership in health:

1. Reclamation

Women arrive exhausted, dismissed, and disconnected. This first phase is about regaining personal power, rebuilding cellular energy, and learning to trust their own intuition again.

“Too many women have been gaslit by the system,” she says. “They stop trusting themselves. That ends here.”

2. Healing

Functional diagnostics uncover root causes: gut infections, toxins, hormonal imbalances. Detoxification, food-as-medicine, and emotional release set the stage for recovery.

3. Performance

Once foundational health is restored, patients can safely begin biohacking with peptides, ozone, regenerative therapies, and cutting-edge tech.

“Biohacking isn’t just for the ‘bro’ world anymore,” she laughs. “But for women, it has to come after healing. We are more complex. We need grace.”

4. Transcendence

The final, often overlooked stage: spiritual coherence. Through heart-based living, breathwork, and energy practices, women learn to operate from love — a state that transforms not just their biology, but the energy around them.

A Wake-Up Call for Women’s Health

Dr. Koche says the most common complaints she sees are fatigue, anxiety, depression, hormonal issues, and sleep disturbances — conditions that conventional medicine too often dismisses or medicates without understanding.

“Our biology is different. Women’s healing must be slower, more intuitive, and more respectful of the nervous system.”

She emphasizes that healing is not just about what you add, but what you subtract — including toxic relationships, processed foods, and the mental clutter that comes from living in survival mode.

Detoxing the Modern World

From microplastics to EMFs to endocrine disruptors, today’s environmental load is unprecedented. Dr. Koche is on the frontlines of new technologies to reverse the damage — including a groundbreaking procedure called tissue plasma exchange, which filters the blood to remove nearly 100% of plastics and up to 85% of heavy metals.

“This is Nobel-level medicine,” she says. “We’re already seeing improvements in cognitive function and cardiovascular plaque reduction.”

Motherhood, Intuition, and the Energy of Fear

Despite a relapse on her ovary and doctors’ doubts, Dr. Koche became a mother of two — her son born at age 40 after emergency heart failure during delivery. But she warns that today’s fear-driven parenting culture can do more harm than good.

“Our children don’t need our fear. They need our frequency,” she says. “When we live from love — literally, 500 on the Hawkins scale — we uplift everyone around us.”

Rather than micromanage or instill fear, she teaches her kids to make informed choices and trust their bodies. The result? A 21-year-old daughter on track for medical school and a 13-year-old son growing up with sovereignty as a birthright.

Actionable Wisdom: Dr. Koche’s Prescriptions for Sovereign Health

Whether you're just starting your healing journey or looking to optimize longevity, Dr. Koche offers these science-backed action steps:

Reclaim Your Energy: Start with the basics: hydration, sleep, protein-rich nutrition, sunlight, and parasympathetic nervous system support. Don’t jump to advanced biohacks before restoring the foundation.
Listen to Your Intuition: The body whispers before it screams. Don’t ignore discomfort or dismiss your instincts. If a treatment or practitioner doesn’t feel right, walk away.
Detox Wisely: Plastic is everywhere — in your water, food, even your brain. Minimize exposure, and explore safe, physician-led detox protocols when ready.
Embrace Community Care: Healing doesn’t happen in isolation. Find a collaborative care team that respects your voice and treats you as a partner.
Live from the Heart: Practice heart coherence through meditation, breathwork, or simple acts of gratitude. Love is not just an emotion — it’s a measurable healing frequency.

The Book That’s About to Change Everything

Dr. Koche’s upcoming book, Sovereign Medicine (due in 2026), distills her life’s work into a step-by-step guide for those seeking to escape the limitations of traditional medicine.

“It’s the roadmap out of the matrix,” she says. “It’s for anyone who knows there’s more — more health, more joy, more truth — and is ready to claim it.”

Ultimately, Dr. Koche’s mission is about freedom — from pain, from confusion, and from the illusion that healing must come from outside ourselves.

“We were born to be healthy and vibrant,” she says. “We just need to remember.”
