About

At Ixir Health, Dr. Christopher Dagher leads a concierge primary care practice built around prevention and long-term wellness. He founded the practice in Pasadena, a city where he was born and raised. Dr. Dagher holds triple board certification in Internal Medicine, Obesity Medicine, and Lifestyle Medicine. Very few physicians in the San Gabriel Valley carry that combination. Working alongside him is Dr. Sahar Dagher, PharmD, a clinical advanced practice pharmacist and certified integrative nutritionist. Together, they form one of the region's most clinically integrated primary care teams.

Ixir Health offers three membership tracks. The Guardian Angel Wellness Plan pairs comprehensive preventive screenings with ongoing health monitoring under Dr. Dagher's direct care. The Body Balance Plan delivers physician-guided weight management with prescription therapy, nutrition support, and lab monitoring. The Body Balance Nutrition Plan focuses on expert nutrition coaching with Dr. Sahar, without pharmaceuticals. The practice also accepts non-members for same-day urgent care visits. Members receive 45-minute appointments, same-day access, telemedicine, and home visits. HSA and FSA funds may apply to eligible services.
