About Therapeutic Apheresis

A Proven Approach to
Restoring Health

Therapeutic plasma exchange removes harmful antibodies, inflammatory proteins, and toxins from your blood — replacing your plasma with clean albumin solution. The result is a measurable reduction in the biological burden your body carries, unlocking your immune system's ability to heal.

Our Physicians

Unmatched Expertise. Unwavering Care.

At Global Apheresis, you are treated by the physicians who have defined this field — not technicians following a protocol, but the experts who wrote it.

Dobri Kiprov, M.D., H.P.
Founder & Chief Medical Officer

Dobri Kiprov, M.D., H.P.

Dr. Kiprov is the foremost pioneer of therapeutic plasma exchange in the United States. With over 40 years of clinical and research experience, he has shaped the very field he practices — from founding the American Society for Apheresis to publishing more than 100 peer-reviewed papers that define the standard of care.

Trained in clinical immunology at Harvard's Massachusetts General Hospital, Dr. Kiprov was the first physician in the country to earn the Hemapheresis Practitioner certification. He served two terms on the ASFA Board of Directors and received the society's Presidential Award for his pioneering contributions.

His landmark research includes the first clinical proof that therapeutic plasma exchange reduces biological age, the first published data on TPE for Long COVID, and a pivotal role in the AMBAR trial for Alzheimer's disease. He currently leads a partnership with the Buck Institute studying the multi-omic effects of plasma exchange.

Allen P. Green, M.D.
Associate Medical Director

Allen P. Green, M.D.

Dr. Green is a board-certified clinical pathologist and one of the most experienced apheresis practitioners of his generation. Having performed over 500 therapeutic plasma exchange procedures, he brings both technical precision and genuine warmth to every patient interaction.

After training at UT Southwestern Medical Center under Dr. Ravi Sarode — one of the nation's leading experts in apheresis and transfusion medicine — Dr. Green built and scaled a longevity-focused apheresis practice from the ground up, growing it to 50 TPE procedures per month within its first year.

A veteran of the United States Air Force, Dr. Green now leads Global Apheresis's affiliate partnerships, training and certifying physicians nationwide to deliver the same quality of care that defines our Mill Valley practice.

The Science

Four Decades of Breakthrough Research

Our clinical protocols are not experimental — they are the product of the most extensive body of research in the history of therapeutic apheresis, led by the physician who built the field.

1985

The Early Research.

Dr. Kiprov publishes his first major works on therapeutic apheresis, including contributions to the New England Journal of Medicine, helping define the clinical foundations of the field.

2013

Parabiosis Research

Building on decades of lab research showing tissue rejuvenation through blood factor exchange, Dr. Kiprov begins translating these findings to human clinical practice.

2020

The AMBAR Trial

The landmark AMBAR study demonstrates that therapeutic plasma exchange with albumin replacement slows Alzheimer's disease progression by 52–71% in moderate patients.

2022

Biological Age Reduction

Dr. Kiprov publishes the first clinical proof that TPE reduces biological age by 1–3 years, measured through epigenetic clock analysis — a turning point for longevity medicine.

2025

Buck Institute Partnership

Global Apheresis partners with the Buck Institute for Research on Aging in a placebo-controlled study analyzing multi-omic biomarkers and the systemic effects of plasma exchange.
