Dr. Derek - Alessi Fitness Inc

Fantastic experience: Dr. Derek - Alessi Fitness offers an exceptional program that combines expert guidance with personalized care, making every visit truly transformative. The staff goes above and beyond, providing not just professional support but genuine concern for each member’s well-being and progress. The environment is welcoming, motivating, and safe.

Fantastic experience: I've been member since 8/24 and have never felt stronger and health wise, better. The staff is very helpful with the classes I take. With my 1 on 1, Matt has done excellent job. Thanks.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a client at Alessi Fitness for 8 months and have lost an incredible 50 lbs, including 40 lbs of fat. The group strength training classes are fantastic, and I absolutely love them! The trainers provide unwavering support and encouragement, offering adaptations for anyone who needs them. The nutrition guidance has significantly reduced my inflammation, and for me, eating well and feeling healthy is the best mood enhancer ever. I just returned from a short vacation, and for the first time in my adult life, I made great choices both nutritionally and fitness-wise while away. Being in my late 40s, I only wish I had discovered Alessi Fitness sooner. Dr. Derek and his staff have changed my life for the better!

Fantastic experience: It was time for a lifestyle change for me. I have never been a morning person nor have I ever enjoyed working out. The semi private fitness training classes are so much fun! I’m enjoying starting my day in such an enthusiastic way. The nutrition guidance I’m receiving is phenomenal. Dr. Derek and his staff ate amazing, informative, and motivational. Thank you everyone!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to Dr. Derek - Alessi Fitness for a few months now, and it’s been a great experience! I love the semi-private workouts, which offer the perfect balance of personal attention and a motivating group environment. The trainers are super supportive, ensuring you’re always progressing. Another standout feature is the monthly check-ins with Dr. Derek. It’s so helpful to track improvements and stay on top of my goals! If you’re serious about your fitness journey, this is the place to be!”

Fantastic experience: At ALESSI fitness everyone is friendly and supportive. Starting a new journey to get fit and weight loss can be very hard. But this program shows you how to work out safely and learn to eat healthy. The support you get here and teaching you how to change your mind set helps us succeed.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Derek and team have been amazing! They are very encouraging, motivating and supportive. I feel stronger and healthier since joining and participating in the weekly classes, logging my food in the app and the monthly body scan. I appreciate the feedback and accountability they provide to keep me on track to achieve my health and lifestyle goals.

Fantastic experience: I can't say enough great things about Alessi Fitness! I have been there for six months so far and have seen great progress. From eating the right food, training 3 days a week, and monthly scans, they do everything right. Dr. Derek and all of the trainers care about each and every one of the clients and I love the overall positive and encouraging atmosphere that keeps me coming back! I highly recommend Dr. Derek to anyone looking to make real progress in their overall health!

Fantastic experience: I just started my journey to better health and fitness. Dr. Derek provided me with valuable information regarding nutrition and exercise that was easy to understand and is a strong foundation towards a healthy future. I look forward to working with him and his staff.

Fantastic experience: I've been going to Alessi Fitness for a few months now. They have helped me so much on my journey back to health. I still have a long way to go, but the instructors are amazing! They are always ready with a modification on an exercise when I need it. Thank you all so much!

Fantastic experience: I’m early into my journey here, but I am already seeing some wonderful results. I’m feeling stronger, more energetic, and I’ve really cleaned up my horrible bad eating habits. They have everything you need to be successful no matter what point of your health journey you are currently at. Coming here was exactly what I needed to get myself back on track, and I’m so thankful for every single person here.

Fantastic experience: I've been a member for 1 month and I'm down 11 pounds! You'll feel satisfied with the nutrional diet as well as the workouts! I needed accountability and I've gotten it. Thank you Dr. Alessi and team members

Fantastic experience: The trainers are great at modifying exercises to the needs of everyone. Very helpful and encouraging! Highly recommended!!

Fantastic experience: I have been a member of Alessi Fit for 2 years. I was a bit reluctant in the beginning, as I was out of shape and in my late 50’s. Dr. Derek and his trainers made me feel encouraged. Each trainer called me by name from day one and helped me learn the exercises and proper form to prevent injury. The other clients are friendly and supportive. The semi private classes are fun and challenging. In my first year, I lost almost 40 pounds of fat! I have maintained that loss. I will soon be turning 60 and I am stronger and leaner than I was in my 20’s! Thank you Dr. Derek!

Fantastic experience: Results. It's been hard work, but the training staff is excellent and keep the classes fresh so it's never the same. Love it. Also find the monthly scans extremely helpful to keep my goals in sight.

Fantastic experience: Eight months into my weight loss and strength training journey I definitely can say it would not have been possible without Derek and all the staff. They keep the energy high and the vibes positive. The workouts are as strenuous as you want or are able to make them. Staff will always give you alternate suggestions if you have concerns with a particular exercise. Thank you Derek and team for helping me to move and feel better!

Fantastic experience: The group workouts are awesome! The trainer do a great job giving a variety of workouts!

Fantastic experience: I needed to change my lifestyle and stick with it. Dr. Derek has given me the tools to do this!! Dr. Derek & his staff are compassionate, encouraging & motivating! This is not a diet, it’s a lifestyle change that has improved my health immensely. Dr. Derek not only ‘preaches’ the lifestyle, he LIVES it and understands the struggles you are going through. The workouts are great with knowledgeable, fun trainers. You workout with others in different areas of the journey from newbies to people 6 months in to 2 years up to over 10 years in the program!! I am very thankful for Dr. Derek & his staff!!

Fantastic experience: Alessi Fitness is literally a lifesaver! My blood glucose levels are almost down to normal, and I’m really losing fat. I love that Dr. Derek teaches up to date nutrition ! I always look forward to the workouts, I’m so much stronger! The trainers always help modify when I need it, and they are so motivating! I feel great, I sleep great. My immune system is terrific now!

Fantastic experience: Dr. Derek and his staff have been wonderful to work with. They keep me on task but also make sure I am working out properly as well as monitoring what I am eating. I am on pace to achieve my set goal and thank the Dr. and staff for their continued help. I would highly recommend Alessi Fitness if you want to loose weight, get fit and do it the correct way.

Fantastic experience: I always considered myself active and fit but once menopause hit it has been a struggle. I have lost the same 10-15lbs several times these past 3 years! Dr Alessi's initial consultation gave great insight into nutrition and exercise. The program makes you accountable. You have to put in the work to be successful but they are all there to support you and be your cheerleader. Loving the exercise program and all the personal trainers. Have been with Dr Alessi for 2 mo now. Down 8 lbs with about 5 lbs of fat and gaining lean muscle. Feeling stronger and more comfortable in my clothes. Slow and steady! Thank you for getting me back on track.

Fantastic experience: I started working with Dr. Derek and his team three months ago and in that short time I have lost body fat and feel much healthier. With the caring support of Dr. Derek and his amazing staff, I finally feel confident that I will achieve my fitness goals.

Fantastic experience: The team at Alessi Fitness is just amazing! Starting with Dr Derek and his passion for fitness and nutrition, each member of his team shows a genuine desire to help their clients achieve their goals. They provide support, encouragement and guidance with a level of kindness and respect that is difficult to find anyplace else. I’m so glad I made the choice to start my journey to better health with Alessi Fitness.

Fantastic experience: Can I join a gym and follow a healthy eating plan on my own and stick with it? Probably not! For me the best part of coming here is the team and the support and accountability that they provide. The fact that my workouts and monthly check-ins are scheduled keep me coming and on track. I would not have been able to see the results without it.

Fantastic experience: Bought into the whole system and it really works! While staff is very friendly and helpful, it’s not just their job to care they actually want you to be successful and walk you through anything that’ll help, any ideas you have, and it’s amazing.

Fantastic experience: I've only been with Dr. Derek a short time but I notice a marked improvement in my well being already. My breathing is noticeably better, I see a steady weight loss and I know I'll reach my target weight in time. The trainers I see every week are great. This is the best thing I'm doing for myself right now and it's about time.

Fantastic experience: This is not a typical gym! Alessi Fitness starts with your goals, and begins your program from where you are and what you need to do to reach those goals. Exercise and diet are both a focus and you are held accountable with detailed tracking of your progress each month. I feel like a new person compared to when I started there!

Fantastic experience: I have been a client for almost 3 years and enjoy the workouts, nutrition tips and training staff; after dealing with a minor injury, the trainers worked with me and set me up with various exercises to help recover. Fantastic fitness program with amazing results. Being held accountable is also very important to me, and Dr. Derek does that...

Fantastic experience: Thank Dr. Derek Alessi, after an evaluation and consultation he turned my unhealthy life around. He shared his experience and knowledge to lead me on a life changing path to recovery and success. I couldn’t be happier, I’ve lost 30 pounds, I exercise every day, and I’m very conscious of everything I put in my mouth. I could have never done this without his eye opening conversation. He really knows what he’s talking about and he cares about getting people healthy.

Fantastic experience: Have been going for strength training 3 times a week for over a year now. I love how varied the semiprivate training is and how much stronger I’ve grown since I started.

Fantastic experience: The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. The facilities are clean with extensive workout equipment

Fantastic experience: I started at Alessi Fitness in July 2023 and I love it! It actually works and it was the best decision for me! It is hard work but I feel so much better about what I eat and how I look. Make your life better today!

Fantastic experience: Just started my health journey and couldn’t ask for more motivating instructors. Along with the exercise regimen is an abundance of nutritional materials/recipes as well as daily reminders regarding healthy eating and lifestyle. Have seen results already!!!

Fantastic experience: After 5 months in down 35 Pounds of fat. Was skeptical at first about joining, but glad I did. Results speak for themselves. Dr. Derek and staff are great to work with and are always there to answer any questions that you may have. They take the time to teach you how to change your diet, build muscle and to have fun while doing it. Keep up the good work!!

Fantastic experience: I started at Dr. Derek - Alessi Fitness Inc recently and am excited to begin my health transformation. During my first visit I learned an incredible amount of information from Dr. Derek regarding my body scan. The information I received was the scary truth that I needed to hear. However hard to hear, I believe the team at Alessi Fitness will provide the knowledge and expertise to support me with this journey. I have knee issues in both knees. The information I learned in my 2 hour visit was more helpful than any previous doctors/fitness instructors have recommended in 30 years of having these problems. I look forward to building the correct muscles to help aid in my quality of life. I look forward to submitting an update on this review within the next year.

Fantastic experience: After a year and a half, I still find this to be the best program that has worked for me to stay committed. I love the classes and have now committed to personal training as well.

Fantastic experience: Just started with Dr Derek I am loving the training…. And working on the nutrition!

Fantastic experience: Amazing experience! The trainers are wonderful. They work with you if you have limitations. The workouts are great! Never had a boring workout.

Fantastic experience: It's almost a month since joining and I love the commitment of the staff in helping me with my fitness and health journey. I enjoy my personal training group sessions and can feel how important my success is here.

Fantastic experience: The trainers at Alessi Fitness are positive and motivating. I love seeing my progress. The programs are a great combination of food, fitness and fun

Fantastic experience: I can't say enough good things about my experience since I started at Alessi Fitness in June. The staff makes you feel welcome and confident from day one. They suggest modifications when necessary and they are always positive and motivating. I am so thankful for their help in changing my life forever! They have helped me achieve goals I never thought were possible. Special shout out to Chris. He is a great trainer and motivator. I could not have reached my goals without him!

Fantastic experience: I am brand new to Alessi Fitness. At my evaluation I was absolutely 100% impressed by the information Dr. Derek shared . He took the time to patiently explain the process an answered my health concern questions. I am very much looking forward to working with Dr. Derek and the Fitness organization, not only for the physical training workout, but the nutrition factor as well.

Positive experience: Just saw bios on website and they all looked dedicated and well-versed in fitness

Fantastic experience: I Love working out here! I've been working out 3 times a week for 4 years and wouldn't have it any other way! I feel great!

Fantastic experience: Just started with Alessi Fitness and I am really impressed. I love the trainers, the personalized approach to fitness, and the feedback regarding diet. I am head I have made the investment in my health.

Fantastic experience: This program is exactly what I needed! Down 25# in two months and nutrition and workout plan is completely doable for the long run!

Fantastic experience: Joining Alessi Fitness was one of the best decisions I have ever made! Both group classes and private sessions are amazing and the trainers are awesome and extremely knowledgeable. The monthly Dex scans, accountability, and the apps for monitoring your progress are so helpful. I would highly recommend Dr. Derek -Alessi fitness if you are serious about losing weight and improving overall health!

Fantastic experience: Dr. Derek is an informative, engaging, candid and supportive practitioner, who exemplifies the results of his approach to weight and fitness management. Beginning with the initial consultation, he helps establish realistic expectations and achievable goals, supplies the tools and resources to accomplish them, and closes the loop with monthly results monitoring. You might find his approach unusual. The idea that the relationship between weight management is more than simply an "energy imbalance" or "calories in vs calories out" or "eat less and move around more" is fairly new. But my experience in weight management and fitness over the last 9 years is absolutely supported by Dr. Derek's philosophy. Since I started with him just over 90 days ago, his nutritional and exercise method has formed one of the final pieces to my personal puzzle, and helped me shed 10 lbs of stubborn body fat, while adding several pounds of muscle. To be fair, it's not easy. It requires personal discipline and a willingness to change, which might include reframing your workouts into your most important meeting of the day and accepting that you can't out-train a poor diet. But if you're prepared to follow a path to proven results, you can achieve them, too. Dr. Derek can help you get there.

Fantastic experience: Amazing facility and trainers. Dr Derek has mastered the art of fat-loss and no one needs to starve to reach their goals. Month 6 at Alessi Fitness= I'm down 30lbs of fat, blood glucose is optimal and balanced, and I've maintained/gained muscle consistently. I have zero complaints.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been with Alessi Fit for 10 months and have NO regrets. The staff is great and really work with you to achieve your goals. If you put the time into this you will NOT regret it. Each month I feel and see improvement in my overall health. I couldn’t be happier. Thanks to a great team!

Fantastic experience: Update...! May 2023 If you want to finally achieve fitness and a healthy lifestyle Alessi Fitness is for you!! I am so grateful for Dr. Derek's guidance and knowledge. His team of fitness professionals create a culture of enthusiasm and determination to stay on the path of wellness. They teach you to make the best food choices to help with body fat loss but most of all the program instills in you the commitment necessary to finally be successful on your weight loss and strength journey. The friendships I have made, the success I have achieved over the last 10 months continually motivates me to stay on this path...forever!! It's fun and I always look forward to my next class! Fall 2022... Since joining the program I have felt stronger, have more energy, have less pain and sleep better at night. Dr. Derek and his talented team keep me on track and accountable. I look forward to the group classes, the one on one training sessions and improving each day! Paula Devereaux

Fantastic experience: Have been working with the staff at alessi fitness for over a year now! The whole program of training, monitoring eating patterns and then the monthly Dexa Scan is a recipe for success! The staff is very friendly and helpful. If you have never worked out before the staff breaks everything down to make the movements easy! Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I couldn't have made a better decision when I joined Dr. Derek and his team! They couldn't be more informed or supportive in helping to improve my diet and overall health and wellness. With their direction, and ever present drive, I have been able to drop almost 30 pounds of fat in 4 months. More importantly, I feel better and have more energy everyday. As I tell my friends, this Diet and Exercise thing really works! Thanks so much Dr. Derek and Staff. Looking forward to the next challenge!

Fantastic experience: Learning a lot from Derek about nutrition. He puts it in a way I understand and backs it up with *my* results. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Accountability for food choices and attending workouts is the key at Alessi Fitness. The apps for tracking food and exercise are easy to use and informative. There are products and personal meetings to help with the journey of reaching your goal. Lots of positive support from the staff. I love that workouts are varied and proper form is stressed to prevent injury. I’ve known about Alessi Fitness for years but always felt I could lose weight and get healthier on my own. Wish I had realized the truth sooner but I’m here now working toward a healthier me!

Fantastic experience: Love this Fitness Center. Dr. Derek is highly knowledgeable and helpful. The personal trainers are fantastic. I have achieved wonderful results. Office staff is amazing to work with any scheduling issues. Can't say enough positive things about this place, except to say I highly recommend it!

Fantastic experience: This is clearly a 5 star business. Yes, it is a business but one that truly cares about you as a person. You are more than a client here. No matter what your objective (lose weight/body fat, increase stamina/strength, decrease medications, or just get general fitness/nutrition information) there is something here for you. The entire staff is extremely professional. Scheduling and other client logistics needs are taken care of in a quick and efficient manner. Your training will be tailored to you based on your objectives and and considerations you have such as nagging injuries, etc. The trainers are going to coach you through each exercise to refine your form and technique to ensure you get the most benefit and reduce the risk of injury. If you are on the fence about checking this business out, don’t be. You will not go wrong and you will see that after your first visit.

Fantastic experience: Excellent vibe. Excellent equipment and super clean. Dr. Alessi is thorough and gives you a play by play to reach your specific goals. I love it here. It's been almost a year and I can't imagine this ever ending. It's my life now and I've never been happier. Thank you Dr. Alessi to you and your entire staff.

Fantastic experience: I'm a 71 year old women with arthritic knees and very overweight. The minute I went in for my consultation I knew I was in the right place. I have been going to semi-private training sessions 3 times a week until I got sick with COVID. They kept in touch with me and I hope to be back in a week or two. I highly recommend Alessi Fitness as I know how much it has already helped me to learn the right foods to eat and how to finally quit being a couch potato. Everyone there is great. Sue Webber

Fantastic experience: I have been working with Dr. Derek since June and it has been the best decision for me. I have reduced medication and feel much better. Semi private training sessions are great! Chris is motivating and helps with modifications.

Fantastic experience: After relocating back the Buffalo area I needed to get on track with my fitness and nutrition. I knew what to do but I was missing the accountability piece. Alessi Fitness, Inc. has helped me to make smarter food choices and has allowed me to workout on a regular basis. I log food items into an app and I have established a MWF routine for working out. The owner, trainers and staff all help to provide a nurturing environment to help reach your fitness and nutrition goals.

Fantastic experience: Alessi Fitness was the safe place that I needed to change my life. I recently completed 1 year at Alessi's and my experience there has been remarkable. I have lost a significant amount of weight and I am no longer in pain. Dr. Derek and his team are professional, kind, & encouraging. If you do the work, you will get the results.

Fantastic experience: In the 6 months I have been a member I have seen results I couldn’t accomplish in the past. The nutrition combined with exercise and guidance have been awesome!

Fantastic experience: I started the program 4 months ago. It's exactly what I needed and I am onboard with the whole philosophy. The trainers are excellent and they are all great with encouragement. I also love the protein products which I would never have said before about protein drinks. No regrets. I would encourage all to join because of the physical benefits.

Fantastic experience: I have been a member for 3+ years, the monthly dexa scans keep you on your healthily diet, I am in the group workout twice a week and throughly enjoy the variety of exercises the people in our class and our trainers, Chris is helpful in explaining the exercises, how to do them correctly, what area were working on and modifications for those of us who need it

Fantastic experience: I've had a great experience with Dr. Derek and his crew. I'd argue that it's one of the most high-end facilities in WNY. My trainer Ryan is a real pro and great to work with. I think you'd be hard-pressed to find a better option in the Buffalo area.

Fantastic experience: At the age of 70 I decided to get in the best shape I can and stay that way for good. My wife said "Go to Alessi". I said "I can do this myself". So eight months ago I set a goal of losing 25 lbs. Three months later I lost 20 lbs. and prematurely said "I told you so". Three months after that I was still tying to lose the other 5 lbs. She repeated "Go to Alessi". So I did. Two weeks later I lost the 5 lbs. and more. And it was fun! Great staff, personal attention, and proper instruction from real professionals!

Fantastic experience: I thought to drop a few lines to share with you that I started to attend Alessi Fitness at the end of November. I'm very impressed and pleased with Dr. Derek and his team. They are AMAZING people!!! I'm impressed that Dr. Derek has a lot of patience and cares about me and his clients. I admired him and his teams for their motivation for us. I wish that I joined Alessi Fitness a few years ago. BUT I'm here now. Looking forward to my accomplishments...... Off the point, it's for people who are looking for their health style concerns, nutritions, exercise and other things. I strongly encourage you to visit Alessi Fitness and make an appointment with Dr. Derek. HAVE FAITH!!

Fantastic experience: After my Covid weight gain...I went on search for a "real" life alternating health nutrition and exercise program. I found "Dr Derek" right down the street! The Dexa Scans really help you focus on your goals! The logical explanation of "fat loss" is the best part! The exercise classes have shown results and are actually fun! The entire staff is the best around! Thanks to everyone!

Fantastic experience: Dr. Alessi and the trainers have made the start of my fitness/nutrition journey very easy. The staff are encouraging and everyone knows your name. I’m very happy with my choice to work with them. Updated 10/27/2022: I am grateful for the support and knowledge the Alessi Fitness Family gives to me for my work outs and eating habits. They keep me on target and make me feel like part of their family as well.

Fantastic experience: It’s been over a year since I have been going to see Dr. Derek and staff. I feel mentally and physically better. I have been given the knowledge and guidance to eat better, exercise better and become more accountable for my overall fitness and weight loss. Highly recommend Dr. Derek and staff… love them all!!

Fantastic experience: I've been a client here since 2013 and couldn't be happier! The nutritional support, planned workouts and body composition checks for accountability are key factors for success. I am a two time cancer survivor and my medical team credits my recovery success to healthy choices relative to food and excellent workout regimen. Dr Derek and his team worked with me throughout my journey and I'm forever grateful for the knowledge and expertise to keep my body healthy and up to the challenge!

Fantastic experience: The trainers are great. My personal training session is formatted to me and my abilities. The trainers are extremely personable, very professional and knowledgeable. They always give lots of encouragement. The semi private small group classes are great. They are challenging and fun at the same time. Dr Derek's knowledge of nutrition is superb. I've only been here for a month and I see great results already. I highly recommend coming here.

Fantastic experience: Every trainer provides excellent varied workouts. They are very supportive and make sure your form is correct which is equally important just a great staff!

Fantastic experience: Derek has been extremely helpful in cleaning up my eating habits. It is obvious that he does this because he cares. His staff of trainers is excellent. They are fantastic motivators for people of all skill level and ability. I actually look forward to exercising for the first time in my life!

Fantastic experience: I started 3weeks ago at Alessi Fitness and have noticed already my energy levels are way up. I am learning more about the good and bad food for me . The team here is very helpful and encouraging in every aspect whether it be in the exercise class or nutrition.

Fantastic experience: They have a reasonable and good quality nutrition program. They also have very encouraging trainers that make sure you're doing well and learning how to take care of yourself.

Fantastic experience: If you put in the work the results will be great! Trainers are involved and caring of individual needs.

Fantastic experience: So far so good. Im feeling better everyday. Thanks Ryan. All the trainers are caring and want you to succeed. After workouts I feel thankful im here now. Thanks.

Fantastic experience: Dr Derek’s knowledge of nutrition and what it takes to lose weight is unmatched. He is readily available for questions and encouragement. My trainer Ryan is also very knowledgeable, attentive and motivating. The other trainers are friendly and professional. I’ve had a great, and successful, experience at Alessi Fitness.

Fantastic experience: Coming up on a year and a half and it is by far the best decision I made. Dr. D and his team are awesome! The information he provides is excellent and the team keeps you completely motivated. No magical pills; just hard work and dedication. Wish I made the decision years ago!

Fantastic experience: UPDATE: 25 months in and still going strong. The trainers are excellent and have the knowledge to give you alternate excercises pertaining to your injuries or fitness level. Everyone is nice and approachable. I do not hesitate to ask for an alternative, nor do I feel like I am inconveniencing them. I still feel like I am getting great workouts. UPDATE: This is a great place to get a full body workout each session. The trainers are there to help along the way. They are there to give pointers to help avoid injury and the motivation and positive energy are what keeps me coming back. I am truly happy that I decided to start my journey with them. UPDATE: Six months in and the positive energy from the trainers is what keeps me coming back. They know my limitations and encourage me to keep going. UPDATE: Two months later and I still feel the same. I am working towards my goals in a safe environment where I can still participate with my limitations. All the instructors are very knowledgeable about what workouts can be modified regardless of your prior injuries. They seem to truly care about this journey and are extremely encouraging. If you are looking for a place to work out post a life changing event, this is the place for you. The instructors are very knowledgeable and understand my limitations. They are able to walk me through a modified workout that allows me to participate and feel like I can accomplish my goals without hurting myself further. If your goals are to become a healthier version of yourself, these are your people. They help you understand why you should make these lifestyle changes and support you through the process.

Fantastic experience: I started going to Alessi Fitness the end of January, 2022.. I am extremely impressed with this facility. Dr. Derek simplifies the concept of healthy eating and exercise. The trainers are very knowledgeable, patient and friendly. I am so glad I joined. If you need help getting healthy, I highly recommend this facility. UPDATE: I’m still going, I love it. I feel great. The trainers are great. If you’re on the fence about joining, schedule a consultation to check it out. ANOTHER UPDATE: I’m still going and I still love it! The trainers are great and you really get a full body work out with the semi-private sessions. I highly recommend scheduling a consultation, you won’t regret it!!!

Fantastic experience: I've been going to Dr. Alessi for over 18 months. Through Dr. Alessi's guidance and consult I have lost 19 lbs of body fat. I have been weight training and playing sports for over 55 years and can vouch for Dr. Alessis's approach to exercise, nutrition and monitoring/accountability. Just need to take the first step. I continue to adhere to Dr. Alessi's consult. His recommendations and guidance regarding nutrition have proven for me to be on target. I thought I was eating healthy prior to my first meeting with Dr. Alessi but still felt I could not shake stubborn body fat despite working out six days a week. After adopting Dr. Alessi's nutritional recommendations I have lost and maintained the 19 lbs of body fat. I am skeptical of new fad exercise and fat loss programs. Dr. Alessi's nutrition program works and is sustainable for life.

Fantastic experience: The trainers at Alessi Fitness are first rate. The methodology of Dr. Alessi speaks to personnel accountability and success is based on "showing up" to sessions consistently and simple attention to nutrition. Both are simple but not necessarily easy. Staff here is professional as they guide me through workouts tailored to my needs. Started my journey in Dec. '21 and looking forward 2022.

Fantastic experience: Tired of fighting the middle age 'spread' on my own. I needed professional help, not just a eating plan, but a combination of eating plan, work outs, and accountability. I found all 3 with Dr. Derek. His monthly check ins are helpful, and honest. His focus is not just the exterior, but how your body and blood work are responding - internally. You get a full picture and a reasonable goal for reducing fat, not just 'losing weight' and replacing bad habits with good, sustainable ones. Plus all the employees, and even my fellow work out buddies make this experience enjoyable, informative and I am making great progress! If you are serious about your health and wellness, but need some help breaking bad habits and creating new, healthy ones, run to Dr. Derek. You won't be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: After five years, I am still impressed by Dr. Derek's passion for physical fitness! He continues researching new healthy advice that he always, enthusiastically, shares with all of his clients. I originally began my instruction at Alessi Fitness in 2016 to get in shape before my daughters wedding. I had tried diet and exercise for years on my own and at gyms and did not get the results I wanted. Following Dr. Derek's healthy dietary recommendations along with personal training, I found I had never felt better in just a few months! I eventually started training in the semi-private classes after I had reached my goal. I continued to do so following a ski accident which left me with some physical weakness that I hadn't had to deal with prior. I appreciated all of the knowledgeable athletic trainers at Alessi Fitness even more then due to their respect for individuals like myself with former injuries. I continue to enjoy all of their motivation and ability to modify exercises so that I, and others , can continue to improve and strengthen our bodies.

Fantastic experience: Spring has sprung and so has the 6:00 am semi private crew!! Love starting my Monday, Wednesdays and Fridays with this group. Thanks Dr. Derek and team for pushing us every day! Great lunch and learn session. Plenty of great suggestions for meals. Look forward to the next session. Thanks Derek!

Fantastic experience: Alessi Fitness is far more than just a gym. I enjoy the personal attention not only to my strength and cardio care but also my nutritional and mindset care. Derek and team are always there to push you and support you through the victories and the challenges that present themselves. Follow the program and you will see results quickly.

Fantastic experience: I recently started using the services of Dr. Derek Alessi at the urging of my wife who has attended his seminars. I found the all inclusive approach of his team as mind, body and spirit. Each detail of this all encompassing program is communicated in an easy to understand format for all types of student’s; it varies from kinesiology, visual, academics, science and an understanding what is important to you personally at this time into your life. My medical issues involve my use of orthopedic and neurosurgeons. He and his staff designed a program to adapt and allow for my present limitations. Dr. Derek communicates daily through emails and helpful solutions to everyday dietary problems. In addition, he and his staff use an app to detail all training and logging of nutrients to keep them updated on my progress which allows a continuing tweaking of my personalized program . As detailed in my writing it is evident that everyone involved is very client oriented, professional and excellent communicators.

Fantastic experience: It has been eleven months since I began the fitness and nutrition regiment with Dr. Derek. With his three pronged approach the results have been nothing short of amazing. As you long as you follow his advice, (which includes one cheat day a week), his plan works! On a day I didn’t feel like working out he said to me: “when was the last time you worked out and wish you didn’t.” I keep this bit of advice in mind on days that I would rather eat candy and sit on the sofa! I highly recommend joining Alessi fitness.

Fantastic experience: I have been a client of Dr Derek’s for over 10 years and the program has improved my health status.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been coming to Alessi Fitness for a couple of years and everyone here is so professional. They started with finding out my goals and developing an exercise program to meet those goals. Dr. Derek a the trainers have assisted me through this journey. I enjoy coming here and I highly recommend this place.

Fantastic experience: I have been going to Alessi Fitness for over a year. This is something I wish I would have found out about earlier in life. It is a wonderful experience. My overall health and wellness has improved greatly. Everyone that works at the facilities are terrific and committed to making it a great experience for you.

Fantastic experience: Started program in February and have really benefited from entire program. Have never really been successful in dieting and really have never been into going to the gym. I really have enjoyed the great food and the encouragement from my personal trainer. This has given me the structure and has shown me that I really can fit this into my busy life. Thank you Dr Alessi and Trainers

Fantastic experience: When you work with Dr. Derek Alessi you are working with an expert in the field of exercise and nutrition. It's only been a little over a month since I've started working with Dr. Alessi and his team of trainers, but my results thus far have been amazing. I have started different plans on my own through the years, without any long term success. Dr. Derek gives you the road map to follow, not just with a fitness and eating plan, but also giving you a measure of accountability. I'm looking forward to the rest of the journey and obtaining my fitness goals.

Fantastic experience: I have been using Macadamia Oil in my cooking and salads for awhile now and like it very much. When I use it for stir frying it does not start smoking right away. I use it in the recipes from the Cooking with Gold book and everything is delicious. From what I have read this oil is healthy and nutritious. How can I go wrong. Suzanne

Fantastic experience: Dr. Derek has provided me with so many tools to be successful at living a healthy lifestyle. He has taught me how to incorporate a healthy diet with the right foods to fuel my body with proper nutrition. Dr. Derek has incorporated a workout program that helps me work out correctly for peak performance while building muscle and losing body fat. He has put systems in place that has helped me be successful while holding me accountable. The Dexa scan has taught me so much about my body fat and lean muscle, just to see how my body is transforming is amazing. The staff at Alessi fitness are top notch and very professional always willing to help and encourage. Dr. Derek and his staff has been a tremendous blessing in my life. I would highly recommend Alessi fitness.

Fantastic experience: Derek and his team are an amazing amalgamation of kindness, knowledge and well-honed skill. Dr. Derek is for those that are seriously wishing to either lose weight with guidance or become physically fit. Having been there twelve year ago, due to a weight gain, was one of my best experiences in my life. Yes, I get up at 5:30 a.m. three times a week but it is well worth it. Having repeated this gain during Covid, where elsse would I go? Dr. Derek! Everything takes patience, hard to imagine. Along with weight loss, feeling good about your self is wonderful. Totally the BEST!
