Who is Peter Attia? ‘Celeb doctor’ named in latest Epstein files; ‘problem in being friends with you’
Peter Attia, MD, and founder of Early Medical, has been named in the latest trove of the Epstein files
Peter Attia, MD, and founder of Early Medical, has been named in the latest trove of the Epstein files, released on Friday. In a series of emails, with the subject: ‘Got a fresh shipment’, Attia can be seen describing the ‘biggest problem about being friends’ with the late convicted sex-trafficker and paedophile.
This comes as the Justice Department made several more records from its files on Epstein public. The files named several high-profile individuals, including President Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, and Bill Gates. In a press conference on Friday, Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche confirmed that more than 3 million pages of documents, along with more than 2,000 videos and 180,000 images, were released.

In a document, numbered EFTA02496403, a series of emails between celebrity doctor Peter Attia and Jeffrey Epstein was revealed.
In one email, Attia wrote: “You the biggest problem with becoming friends with you? The life you lead is so outrageous, and yet I can't tell a soul...” The Early Medical founder is yet to issue a statement on the latest release.
"You are a disgusting monster. Hope you get a "fresh shipment" of Hell," one personr reacted to the emails on X, platform formerly known as Twitter.
“What is done in the dark, always comes to light. Hope it was worth it,” another person tweeted.
Back in 2025, it was reported that Epstein repeatedly met Peter Attia, whose books have sold millions of copies.
