Dr. Anthony Alphonso-Back to Wellness

Fantastic experience: Before coming to Dr Alphonso I was taking at least 15 medications. I was in the hospital a year prior with sepsis, and was seeing one specialist after the other for health issues. Doctors kept giving me more and more medications and I was not getting any better with multiple symptoms, multiple problems. When my husband Mike and I went to doctor Alponso's seminar one of the questions he asked was where do you see yourself in 3 years?. I saw myself unable to get out into the woods, on the trails playing disc golf. Unable to play with my grandchildren. Doing the outdoor activities that I love. I saw myself with a knee replacement which I never want to go through. I saw myself with a quality of life that does not meet my standards. My husband and I went all in. We knew as soon as we went to his seminar that this is what we needed to get our lives back in our sixties. Since going, I've lost weight, I have stamina, the swelling in my body has gone down to the point where my knee is rarely inflamed and full of fluid. I'm able to play with my grandchildren, my husband and I get out on the disc golf field and do 18 holes, we are hiking, doing yoga, we're even going to set up an exercise studio in our basement. We are eating quality healthy ingredients, whole foods, organic foods. We are taking our supplements that are individually prescribed br Dr Alphonso. Since seeing him I am only taking two of my medications and the rest I've been able to stop because I no longer need them. During the winter months I am always sick with bronchitis for weeks at a time. I started to become sick a few weeks back. My husband took me into see Dr Alphonso he put me on some herbs and immune builders and I was better within days. Robin their receptionist is very welcoming and is wonderful to work with, she really listens and if I have any questions or concerns she helps get me the answers. When I was sick I called and she got an appointment right away for me Robin you really are a joy to see and talk to. Thank you.. Honestly I can't say enough good things about the experiences that we have gotten through doctor Alphonso and his wife Melissa. They are truly good-hearted people and they make you feel like your family. Their knowledge and years of experience makes me feel reassured and very comfortable that I'm in excellent hands. We will continue seeing Dr Alphonso and Melissa for the rest of our lives. Thank you Dr Anthony Alphonso and Melissa for giving us our lives back. Jo DeMichiei

Fantastic experience: This has been a life changing experience! Dr Alphonso and Melissa have been so good, very hands on and personal. We always look forward to our appointments.

Fantastic experience: Before going to Dr. Alphonso I had dealt with chronic indigestion and joint pain. Throughout treatment my overall health improved. I had more energy and I could enjoy exercising again. His treatments consisted of diet changes and supplements. It’s worth it to feel healthy again.

Fantastic experience: I am 78 years old and began my wellness journey with Dr. Alphonso in August, 2025. My most immediate concerns were a feeling of sluggishness and fatigue and high blood pressure. Recent blood work by my PCP showed elevated numbers of ALK Phos in my liver. Following the diet plan and taking the supplements recommended by Dr. Alphonso, in two months my energy doubled. I volunteered for a 2nd full day of teaching at the homeschool co-op where I work. Now at nearly four months in, both blood pressure ALK Phos numbers are within normal range. Following Dr. Alphonso’s protocol has dramatically improved my life.

Fantastic experience: Greetings, this program that I embarked on was very beneficial, Dr. Alfonso and Melissa were very helpful and very supportive along with the entire staff. I learned better eating habits. My ulcer that I had was decreased due to the supplementation I was told several times that my skin was much clearer and I seemed more calm and not as overwhelmed as I used to be. I have learned with this program you have to be consistent. You do have to have a determined mindset .This is definitely a life-changing program that requires consistency and accountability. It was well worth the Investment.

Fantastic experience: My friend invited me to attend a presentation/workshop. Although I was initially unsure of what to expect, I listened attentively to both the presentation and her personal account regarding the program. After reviewing the program and considering Dr. Anthony Alphonso's insights, I felt prepared to participate. I have lost weight, and I am eating healthier. I am feeling good my overall health is improving. Thank you, Dr. Anthony, Melissa and your staff for being there supporting and encouraging me on my journey and for a better understanding of the program.

Fantastic experience: Remarkable how life can change so dramatically in only 3 months! My momma and I did the program together. Both of us felt pretty darn crummy when we started the program and by the end our lives improved greatly. We both lost over 20 pounds. Mom's migraines went away. I had significant improvement in my anxiety levels, digestive issues, depression, my stinking thinking, brain fog, memory, focus, energy, sex drive, chronic pain, hot flashes and overall well-being. Dr Alphonso, Melissa, and Robin were all so kind and helpful. They truly care about you. They were an absolute delight to work with. Momma and I learned so much and feel so much better! Thank you!! We are incredibly grateful!!

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Back to Wellness with Dr. Anthony Alphonso! When I started, I had digestive issues and I was always tired. I generally just "didn't feel good" all the time. With the guidance of Back to Wellness, I have never felt better! My energy level is back and I am enjoying all my activities and my grandchildren.

Fantastic experience: I have been a patient of Dr. Alphonso's for over 13 years and he has helped me tremendously with all of my health concerns. I am so grateful for him, his wife Melissa and the staff at Back To Wellness.

Fantastic experience: Anthony and Melissa, I want to thank you for all your help over the last year. Melissa, you have been a God send to me!!! My biggest health concern was that I had daily headaches from the moment I opened my eyes for the day to when I closed them at night. I had seen a neurologist for 3 1/2 yrs. We tried 3 different meds and Botox with no relief. After being on this program for 6 wks, it hit me that I hadn't had a headache in over a week and a year later, I have had just 3 headaches. The after being off my cholesterol meds for 90+ days now, and adding in the last change of my supplements; I have 90% less aches and body pains which was my 2nd most health concern after my headaches. My stress level is also down by at least 80%. I have learned that the cost of eating healthy has allowed me to stop taking all 4 of my prescription medications. No more do I have to deal with the side effects. It is just adjusting our thinking of where you are spending or money, on doctor bills and prescriptions or the cost of purchasing healthier foods. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Fantastic experience: I truly enjoyed my experience with this program. It has placed my future life on a trajectory of good health . The entire staff was kind and attentive to my needs. Upon starting the program I was diabetic and needed to lose weight. At the completion of the program, I am no longer diabetic and I have lost 15 pounds. By putting myself first my total mindset has changed, and I’ve learned how to take care for me The learning experience has been phenomenal. It is something I will carry with me for the rest of my life. Thank you Dr. Alfonso and Melissa. God Bless you, Patricia Wade

Fantastic experience: We are very thankful for the help Doctor Alphonso has given us. The hospitality of the staff and the welcoming environment is something I am excited to experience every time I make an appointment.

Fantastic experience: I’m sharing my story so people know you can take control of your HEALTH with help from Dr. Anthony Alphonso, Melissa and Robyn at Back to Wellness. I found him on Facebook and went to one of his seminars and was committed from that point on ! I came to them after being a nurse for over 40 years and seeing what the Health Care System DOESN’T do for our Health. I came to them with fatigue , stress, difficulty sleeping at night ( only getting 2-3 hours a night for years), gi issues, sinus problems, ear drainage, high blood pressure and hip pain. Prior to seeing Dr. Alphonso I was dx with celiac disease ( followed the diet) , had a cholecystectomy and total hysterectomy done. It’s been 10 months since I started working with the team and feel better than ever. I have realized how food and everyday products affect your wellbeing ! I have learned so much going through there program and like how they individualized it to my needs. The program, the supplements and eating organically can change your life . Today I sleep 7 hours a night , my energy level is awesome . It’s been 8 months since I had any sinus medication and 6 months since I have had any Tylenol or Motrin . I take no prescription medications. I would encourage anyone to seek out Dr.Alphonso and his team , if you want to take control of your Health! I have had such good results my daughter started seeing Dr . Alphonso and his team !

Fantastic experience: Dr. Alphonso has helped my severe IBS issues. After 10 years of living off of soup and eggs, I am now able to eat salads again!

Fantastic experience: My mother heard Dr. Alphonso on the radio years ago and said you need to see him! I was tired all the time, body aches, heart palpitations and overall felt unwell. Traditional doctors all said I was fine. I honestly was so discouraged. I can not say enough wonderful things about Dr. Alphonso. I don’t live with daily pain anymore and my heart palpitations are gone. Highly recommend if you are fed up with traditional medicine and doctors and not getting any answers.

Fantastic experience: I came to Dr Alphonso because I was at my end with my regular physician, who I found out wasn’t doing me any good and just stringing me along for my insurance. Dr Alphonso worked with me and brought through a lot of things like vertigo, and constipation. I’ve always wanted to learn more about wholistic health because I know that the medicine that is pushed onto human beings is very toxic, and it just pacifies the root problem leaving you to rely solely on them while dealing with the deadly side effects. So thank you to the team at Back To Wellness.

Fantastic experience: I'm grateful for the team at Back To Wellness. I'd done such harm to my body with poor eating, diets, alcohol, etc. that weight loss was extremely difficult. I needed to lose weight to meet the criteria for a hip replacement, caused by years of inflammation in my system. After working with Dr. Alphonso to get to the root causes of my condition, we made significant changes to my food choices, and adding supplements to bolster any organs that needed improved functionality. Eliminating certain foods cured my arthritis. Two years later, I'm 60 pounds lighter (and losing), stopped my 4-8/day Tylenol habit, and have ZERO joint pain. Swelling in ankles and feet are gone. My sleep is improved, and I'm able to take on more tasks at work and home with positive energy. I'm in better health than I was in my 30's (now in my 60's). I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Alphonso and his approach to whole body health. We don't have to be victims of the Big Food-Big Pharma-Big Govt. Sick-Care System!

Fantastic experience: Dr. Alphonso and his team have done a great job helping me manage my diet and health. Been seeing him for over a year and I’ve seen better sleep, more stamina and energy and better emotional health.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Alphonso has been caring for me and my family for more than 15 years. In that time, we’ve seen some interesting health issues that have baffled the modern medical community, but we’ve found resolution and peace of mind in Dr. A’s care. Mind you this care is not just about what his practice can do FOR you, but WITH you; this is a partnership. When I first started seeing Dr. A I was recovering from a horrible car accident which left me with a lot of neck and shoulder pain, I had moved to another state, started a new job, and was getting married to a wonderful man with three kids. The injuries from my car accident would flare up at random times. I sought care from chiropractors and had resigned myself to thinking this was just something I would just have to bear in life. Then I met Dr. A and my world changed. His approach was unique and nutrition centered. Given time, good eating, and whole food supplementation regimen, my neck and back pain disappeared completely. I also have a great deal of stress in my life which has manifested itself in different ways in my body through the years. Each time, Dr. A identifies what needs support and we manage my health together. The work that Dr. A has done to manage my kids’ health has been nothing short of miraculous. One of my (now) five kids suffered from upper respiratory everything. My daughter was under constant pediatric care. One fateful night, as I stayed up listening and worrying over her breathing, I decided that we needed to take alternative measures if she was going to have any kind of quality of life. The antibiotics and other meds were keeping her alive, but they weren’t addressing the root cause of these constant infections. I took her to Dr. A. We radically changed her diet and put her on a whole food supplement regimen. This kid was in kindergarten – while all the other kids were eating cupcakes and sugary drinks, my kid was eating no sugar added apple sauce. It was really hard for her and me, as I know the kids gave her a hard time because she was “different.” Her health was important – more important than her peers around her. She mustered through and stuck to her diet with great support from her teacher during the day, family by night, and Dr. A’s care. As a result, her immune system became rock-solid – no more upper respiratory anything for more than a decade! There are so many more stories to share! Dr. Alphonso and the Back to Wellness team are truly supportive, caring, and responsive to our individual health-care needs. And that too distinguishes them from other healthcare providers – each of us has a unique body biome. As such, care is tailored to individual need. With the worries and stress that life brings – even throughout the pandemic, I don’t worry about our health with Dr. A and the Back to Wellness staff in our corner.

Fantastic experience: I began seeing Dr. Alphonso in 2011 when my son was so sick that his pediatrician just gave up trying to find a reason. I had also been experiencing terrible "acid reflux" for over a year and lost a lot of weight because everything I ate aggravated my condition. The medicine I was prescribed at that time never helped and after 8 months, the doctor said "just keep taking it". Within a very short time after starting to see Dr. Alphonso, my son regained his strength, color and vitality - it was wonderful to see! And I was able to start eating again! 12 years later and I have not experienced "acid reflux" again! I've learned that I was in a Sick-care system, not a Health-care system. Dr. Alphonso helps you understand the value of good nutrition and what true wellness means. I'm 61 and have no illnesses like others my age: high cholesterol, high blood pressure, diabetes, etc. When I feel out of sorts, Dr. Alphonso finds the root cause and addresses it with whole food supplements and, as always, good nutrition. Other doctors treat the symptoms and your medication list just keeps getting longer. I truly thank God for bringing me to Dr. Alphonso and his team - you couldn't ask for a more authentic, caring, competent practice than Back To Wellness!

Fantastic experience: I started seeing Dr Alphonso in my early 50’s, after witnessing how he helped 2 of my family members. His knowledge and experience speak volumes, when there were no other doctors providing any options to cure their vertigo and digestive issues. After seeing their dramatic improvement, I decided to make an appointment. Dr Alphonso not only helped me experience positive results while I was going through my change in life, but is helping to keep my immune system strong. Before seeing Dr Alphonso, I would come down with bronchitis every year. After 3 years staying with his amazing program, I feel better and have more energy than ever before.

Fantastic experience: Dr. A is my go to professional for optimal, overall wellness! I first was referred to him because I was having severe skin issues (hives, acne, allergy-like reactions). The doctors and dermatologists I had been seeing were not able to diagnose the root cause or provide healing treatments. I was so impressed with the results I had with Dr. A for my skin issues that I’ve continued to work with him for nearly 8 years now. EIGHT YEARS! The positive impacts go much deeper than balanced skin. I have balanced gut health, sleep well, have regular and easy digestion, regular periods, etc. Such a phenomenal resource to have in the Syracuse area - highly, highly recommend if you’re serious about living your best life!

Fantastic experience: I started going to Dr.Alphonso a little over a year ago with complaints of my back constantly hurting. . I own my a construction company and with the constant bending over the years, I thought I would need surgery. Little did I know it was my kidneys that were causing my back pain. Dr. Alphonso knew exactly what to do and what regimen to put me on and my back has never felt better. I continue to go see him and he has uncovered a lot of underlying issues and has corrected them. My overall health has significantly improved after going to see him and taking his advice. Can't recommend him enough!

Fantastic experience: For years I have struggled with eating right and feeling sick and tired all the time. Aches and pains for no reason. After a major health scare and being left with no answers from my doctors, a friend suggested for me to check out one of Dr. Anthony Alphonso's workshops. Surprisingly without knowing it I had heard Dr. Anthony on the radio before. At the workshop it was as if he was speaking directly to me. I scheduled a visit with him but was skeptical to say the least, after a few visits it was amazing how good I was feeling. As time went on I continued to feel better and better, however there was a side effect..... I lost 40 lbs in the process... one of the best side effects I could ask for. It is amazing how much better you feel when you give your body what it wants and needs. A huge thank-you goes out Dr. Anthony, his family, and staff for being there and helping me on this journey to changing my lifestyle and becoming a healthier me. I highly recommend you attending one of his workshops soon, your body will thank you.
