Pat Riley is the CEO of Clientele and MDR, where she directs skin care and nutrition research, and advises celebrities on staying young. Pat is evidence of the boundless energy her products offer.

Pat found her direction early in life. She loved the science of nutrition and chemistry, and was a Phi Kappa Phi Honor Graduate of Food Science & Nutrition, from the University of Florida in 1976. "I always have believed that good health is our greatest gift, because without it, you can do nothing! I grew up in South Florida, where many retirees come to enjoy their golden years. Seeing so many of them suffer with the problems that come with aging, I vowed to God to dedicate my life to help us all stay youthful and healthy as long as possible."

In 1979, Pat began to work with noted Dermatologist Dr. Victor Witten, M.D. and introduced the first oil-free moisturizer to the world. She then took a quantum leap in the skin care industry with the realization that in order to keep women healthy, their nutritional deficiencies had to be corrected. With George Christakis, M.D., a highly-recognized nutrition authority, the Clientele Daily Nutrients Formula was developed. Neiman Marcus helped make another first possible by introducing the first vitamin program to include antioxidants as a means of protecting the body from "oxidative aging."

True to her mission of helping everyone live healthier and longer, Pat and her team analyzed vitamin formulas on the market, finding them to be sadly deficient. A new company, "MDR", was born to help bring the latest breakthroughs in health and nutrition to the public. The company philosophy concentrates on formulating the most advanced formulas based on the latest research in anti-aging. For 30 years Pat has been collaborating with the foremost medical minds in the fields of skin care, nutrition, aging, and longevity. Pat and her Team have led the industry with many "firsts" which years later, became industry standards including:

1979 ** First oil-free moisturizer

1982 ** First to use antioxidants (vitamin E, C, A, and Superoxide Dismutase) as a "defense" against "oxidative aging", in skin care and nutritional formulas. Today free radicals are recognized as a key factor in aging and many diseases.

1983 ** First with Daily Nutrients to beautify skin, hair, and nails from within.

2002-2006 **Pat develops numerous patents and novel technologies in the U.S. and Europe to help promote healthy youthful skin.

Each year Pat tirelessly continues to pave the way with new discoveries to help us better fend off the ravages of aging and stay youthful. In the coming years, we can only imagine what new breakthroughs she will bring us to help us look and feel our best.
